Yoga Fitness for Men: Build Strength, Improve Performance, and Increase Flexibility

Review Yoga Fitness for MenYoga Fitness for Men by Dean Pohlman is one fantastic book. This is the first day of publication. I received my pre-ordered copy. I was so impressed that the book jumped 25 other books in line to be read. I reviewed each and every page of the 190 page book.Dean dispels several myths and then presents a very reasonable approach to using yoga for athletic, for body repair, for strengthening. Dean presents 55 poses, 25 workouts and 3 programs 2 for 12 weeks and one for 16 weeks.Each of the 55 poses is presented on facing pages with starting posture or pose with complete

This well thought out guide is both instructional and motivational. I bought both the paperback and Kindle versions, finding benefits of both that I outline below.For years I’ve purchased other yoga books and videos, and ‘Yoga Fitness for Men’ is the best guide I’ve found that shows how to complete 55 yoga postures in a simple, yet comprehensive manner. The author, Dean Pohlman, provides tips on how to benefit from the posture if you’re “Not There Yet,” that is, not as flexible as you’d like to be. He’s also the model in the book, so he demonstrates he can “walk the talk.”The GENIUS of the boo

As a physical therapist, part of my job includes home or gym exercise regimens that my patients can follow seamlessly and most importantly, incorporate into their daily lives. Yoga is one of them. In fact, there are certain poses I recommend on a daily basis. One thing I explain to busy folks - it does not have to be a full routine. You can absolutely pick certain poses you like and do what works for you!Dean Pohlman does exactly that in this book. He simplifies the techniques with stunning easy to follow high quality photos using a step-by-step approach that goes straight into the details of

I was weak as water after a bout with cancer and associated treatments. I used to programs in this book to battle back– the yoga in this book helped me!

What I love about this book is how clear it is. There's no flowery language to decipher. No random insertion of some sort of spiritual practice. The images are very well shot, and cover every angle you need. And my absolute favorite parts are the "Not There Yet?" sections. I had knee surgery and there are some poses I just can't do the regular way anymore. This book has modifications that make sure you're still working the correct muscle groups. I've noticed marked improvement in my ability to perform these movements, and it's all because the book made sure to include a way to work towards you

Where To start, this book is great all around. I’m not a yoga expert but I do enjoy the benefits of regular yoga/mobility practice. This book will help you get the most out of every pose in your practice/workout. Deans cues in the little snippets on every page are worth so much more than the book costs. I’ve been to my fare share of yoga classes and it’s always so fast and I can barley feel my body In the pose before we’re moving onto the next posture. Dean helps you get the most out of every position because he’s so clear and percise with his cueing. The book is laid out very well and has ama

Yoga Fitness for Men is an excellent resource for men wanting to learn yoga. This book goes beyond other yoga books that I’ve seen. The first section teaches yoga postures. Multiple photos of each posture are tagged with guidance labels to help achieve the best result with the posture (for example, “press the crown of the head upward,” “elbows directly over wrists,” or “keep hips squared forward, directly over foot”). In addition, each posture description contains information on the muscles targeted and the benefit of the posture, information that I do not have in my other yoga books. I apprec

Awesome book for stretching and yoga for all levels. I bought this book because I didnt want an app for yoga that required a subscription. This book is great for teaching and practicing yoga poses, increasing flexibility, relieving soreness, and overall exercise. The author did a great job and would highly recommend to anyone considering getting it.
