<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"Adapts the practice of yoga by focusing on the poses that offer the greatest benefits to runners. The poses and sequences in this book are intended to enhance strength, stability, and mobility in order to reduce incidents of running injury and add longevity to your sport as you become a healthier and stronger runner"--<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>You already know that running can be invigorating, therapeutic, fun, and challenging. And you are likely painfully aware that it can lead to stiffness, muscle imbalances, and overuse injuries such as knee pain, shin splints, sciatica, and hamstring and groin strains. <p/> Let <i>Yoga for Runners</i> show you how to incorporate yoga and breathing techniques into your workouts, help you eliminate chronic aches and pains, and keep you running stronger and longer. Each of the featured yoga poses was exclusively selected for runners and is described in detail to ensure correct execution and improve strength, mobility, and flexibility. Every part of the body is addressed to help you strengthen the spine, core, upper body, hips, hamstrings, knees, and feet and ankles. <p/> Accompanied by full-color photos, the poses are also arranged into 13 yoga sequences to address specific areas of concern such as core stability, strengthening and lengthening the hamstrings, increasing mobility of the hip joint, speeding up the recovery process after a practice run or race, and loosening the neck and shoulders, which is particularly beneficial for runners who sit much of the day. Anatomical illustrations and descriptions explain how the poses and sequences decrease your risk of acute or chronic injury as well as why they are beneficial to your training regimen. <p/><i>Yoga for Runners</i> also features breathing and mindfulness techniques to help you become more alert to the signs of a possible injury developing and to know when you can push your body a bit harder. <p/> Now is the perfect time to start a yoga program that will help your endurance, strength, breathing, and mental sharpness and make your running experience more productive, pain free, and enjoyable for years to come. <p/><b>CE exam available!</b> For certified professionals, a companion continuing education exam can be completed after reading this book. <i>Yoga for Runners Online CE Exam, Second Edition, </i> may be purchased separately or as part of the <i>Yoga for Runners With CE Exam, Second Edition, </i> package that includes both the book and the exam.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>With an extensive history as a long-distance runner and yoga instructor, <b>Christine Felstead</b> has married her twin passions into a pioneering program for runners.
