the water, try the exercises in Surf Flex. It's guaranteed
to keep your Wednesdays big and your summers endless. Whether
you are a beginning or advanced surfer, Surf Flex will get
you in top form to ride the waves. With contributions by leading

Description:
Athletes can build flexibility and strength for their
sports by cross-training with a targeted yoga workout.
Yoga for Athletes presents 12 different customized yoga
sessions ranging from 20 to 60 minutes for each of 16
sports: baseball, basketball, cycling, football, golf,
hiking, kayaking, martial arts, rock climbing, running,
skiing, soccer, swimming, tennis, volleyball, and weight
lifting.
Choose
your sport, then select from a dozen yoga workouts emphasizing
certain muscle groups (such as hips, shoulders, legs)
or skills (balance, twisting, strength). Instruction
is slow and detailed enough for beginners to learn the
poses. Instructor Barbara Benagh, an avid road cyclist
and an advanced yoga practitioner with more than 25
years of teaching experience, uses voice-over to explain
carefully how to do each pose. Jason Gordon, an advanced
practitioner, demonstrates the poses clearly.
