Yo, Yo, Yoga
Here's Your Healthy Tip of the Day: my patients ask me my thoughts on yoga; some of them are quite inflexible or nonathletic. Here's my opinion: find a yoga studio or gym that has a good reputation for its teachers and take classes on a regular basis. You might not be able to bend over and touch your knees the first class you attend, but if you stick with it, after a month you'll be surprised when you can not only touch your toes, but palm the floor. I have a patient who was a professional athlete; he's now in his early 80s and has been doing yoga for the past 20 years. He is strong, flexible and at 6'6", he can palm the floor and then some!
