How much strength does yoga really build?

Does yoga build strength? The short answer is yes. But does it build enough strength? Jason and Andrea dive into this topic and answer questions such as:

  • What are the three different types of strength and which type does yoga build most efficiently?
  • Which regions of the body are more challenging to strengthen in yoga?
  • Do you need to supplement your strength with something other than yoga?
  • What about post-menopausal women, who are more prone to muscle loss (sarcopenia) year over year?
