Hey!

Anyone any recommended yoga DVD or even some youtube videos? Preferably 30 minute or so at home "Yoga Classes" - more with respect to movement and flexibility than solely meditation (although I do enjoy that part too!)

I train about 5 days a week and want to keep (and increase) my flexibility. I've been doing the SAME yoga video (from the 21 day fix extreme DVD - it's a good yoga class!) for the last few months and I need some change!

Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated!

    There's a DVD by the company GAIAM that's called Yoga for Athletes. I think it is available on You Tube, it concentrates in stretching the areas that are commonly tight on athletes like shoulders and hamstrings.
    Another type worth looking into in YinYoga (a specific type of yoga - look for DVDs or studio classes) this types of yoga hold poses for 2-3 minutes at a time and provides a really deep stretch.
    I also have a DVD by Yoga Zone called Stretching for Flexibility and it is two 20 workouts.

    Last, Tammy Lee also makes a stretching (yoga type w/o the spirituality) for athletes. It is very good too.
