Why yoga and cycling, and not yoga/aerobics or yoga/muscle fitness?
Yoga and cycling are both non-evasive and non-compact on the hips and knees. This is very important for people of all ages, but especially for anyone over 35. Putting unnecessary stress on the knee and hip joints can have serious consequences later on in life. Both yoga and cycling have a rhythm and flow that are similar. Instead of locking our joints and putting pressure on our feet like an aerobics class, cycling allows for a circular motion that repeats itself over and over. Indoor cycling also offers one of the most efficient cardio, fat burning workouts available in a gym today. It is easy to monitor such things as heart rate and resistance while on an indoor cycling bike. Since yoga deals with isometric training and stretching of muscle, the cardio aspect of indoor cycling is a perfect complement to yoga, like a yin-yang that make a circle.
