Disadvantages:

Yoga may seem like gentle movements, but if practiced improperly, it is likely to cause injury to the practitioner.

If you are eager for success, the intensity is too high or the difficulty is too high, coupled with wrong posture, it may lead to sports injuries, such as muscle and ligament strains, meniscal injuries, joint inflammation, neuralgia, etc. are all common "Yoga disease".

There is a posture in yoga called camel pose, which involves leaning your waist back and supporting your hands on the ground. Excessive practice of this movement can easily cause damage to the lamina and ligaments behind the spinal canal. In severe cases, the spinal cord may also be damaged, which is medically called hyperextension injury.

The bones of some young people are still in the development stage. Practicing yoga has a great risk of injury and may have adverse effects on bone development. Improper practice is more likely to cause injuries and leave sequelae.

Standard requirements

1. Warming up is very important. Don't do difficult movements at the beginning to avoid sports injuries. It is best to do some yoga warm-up exercises first and gradually to avoid frightening the body.

2. When practicing, the room must be kept relatively quiet and the air must be circulated. Do not practice on a bed that is too soft. Prepare a yoga mat and practice in your pajamas and bare feet.

3. Practicing yoga does not necessarily have to be done in accordance with the movements on the CD. Practitioners can do as many movements as they can remember. The order of movements is not static. You should do whatever you want, as long as you keep breathing steadily. And peace of mind is enough.

4. When practicing yoga, you must maintain 3 to 5 breaths in each movement. After practicing yoga, you should feel happy instead of tired or even painful.

5. Don’t force yourself to practice yoga. You don’t have to do yoga every day. You can get twice the result with half the effort by doing yoga only when you are in a good mood, feel good physically, and have free time.

Note after practice:

① Wait 0.5-1 hour before eating. During yoga practice, the digestive organs are fully massaged and need to be given a certain amount of rest and adjustment to protect and enhance organ function to the maximum extent.

② Rest for 0.5-1 hour before taking a bath. After yoga practice, the body feels very sharp. You should avoid the stimulation of hot and cold in a short period of time to ensure the orderly flow of energy in the body.
