Yoga health benefits men of all ages, body types and backgrounds, even if they have just come off the soccer field. A yoga benefits article published by ESPN points to the Tottenham Hotspur Football Club as a group of guys who have adopted the mind-body regimen wholeheartedly.
The UK team, which is part of both the Premier League and the Europa League, began doing yoga exercises at the behest of their head coach, Harry Redknapp. He was not shy about expressing his enthusiasm to the news source.
"It's fantastic. We have been getting into doing the yoga and I think pilates is just an amazing thing,'' Redknapp said of the holistic regimen. ''It's great for the players. They are all doing it now."
Similar phenomena have occurred in the U.S., where amateur and professional basketballers, hockey players and baseball stars have admitted to loving the way yoga strengthens and relaxes their bodies.
One doesn't have to be an athlete in some other sport to get the most out of yoga. Plenty of men consider the mind-body routine their primary source of exercise and entertainment.
