Yoga and Swimming Isnt this the biggest bulls**t ever?!? Its imposible to use the knowledge you get from Yoga in swimming because the BASICs of Yoga are on nose breathing I agree that both yoga and swimming share flexibility... but that doest have to do with anything cause the main problem is breath. I dont know how can people put these two together I almost drowned NUMEROUS times, and now i am completly starting to forget yoga just so i could learn how to swim right. feel free to comment please

  • Next time try the breathing/relaxation/meditation elements before getting in the pool! :) Yoga, spinning, weights, running, etc. all can be viable cross training elements that can in my opinion improve swimming...and life in general. PS: much of the emphasis in a quality yoga program geared towards swimming will be on strengthing the rear deltoids. These muslces are in opposition to the pecs which in swimming become over developed and lead to the poor shoulder posture in a lot of swimmers.....and also contributes to shoulder problems.
