 | By popular demand and just in time for the Tour de France, here is a yoga routine by cyclists. | |
Yoga for Cyclists
Cyclists often experience tightness in the major muscle groups used in riding a bike: the calves, quadriceps, hamstrings, glutes, hips, shoulders, and neck are particularly in need of regular stretching. This short series of yoga poses is designed for the recreational cyclist and intermediate yogi.
| Yoga Props Illustrated
It's useful to have a few yoga props handy so you can adjust this sequence to fit your flexibility. Don't worry if you don't have "official" props. A belt works just as well as a yoga strap, and storage boxes can stand in for blocks.
| Prana Wanderlust Contest

The yoga line-up includes Shiva Rea, Baron Baptiste, Seane Corn, Duncan Wong and Elena Brower, while Moby will be headlining the musical acts. Lucky for all you procrastinators, yoga wear company Prana is having a great contest where you can will a trip for two to the festival, including airfare and lodging.

| Pose of the Week Crow Pose - Bakasana
 Crow pose is usually the first arm balance that yoga students learn. It can also be the start of a yoga home practice. If you've set your sights on crow pose, my advice is to try the pose every day at home. Consistency is important here, as is freeing yourself from the potential embarrassment of falling. Warm up with a few sun salutations and then work on your crow. You never know, the habit of doing yoga at home just might stick.
