What the research says about yoga and strength — and how to train smarter on the mat.
Yes — with a few caveats. Studies show regular vinyasa practice improves muscular endurance, core strength and balance, especially for beginners.
Train progressively
Hold poses longer, slow the transitions and add strength-focused classes like Vinyasa Strength twice a week.
Pair it with rest
Strength comes from recovery as much as effort. Balance dynamic classes with Yin or Wellness Yoga.
Practise this with Maya in class.
