I just ordered and received my "Yoga for Swimmers" DVD. I have watched it a few times and attempted many of the poses....it is harder than I thought and I'm way less flexible than I thought.Can anyone out there attest to the benefits of yoga when it comes to swimming? I'm trying to decide whether to do a consistent weight lifting routine or if I should practice yoga - I don't have time for both right now.
I'd ask myself what is the condition of my core vs. my muscles. If the core needs more work, go yoga, otherwise weights. At my age, the 10 - 15 minutes of yoga I do every day, with some added here and there, keeps me from being very inflexible.
