Obviously, this person does not know the true purpose of yoga, if he did, he would not waste his time talking about this. If you want to be strong, from the inside out, do yoga and don't listen to this man who, IS EMPTY and focuses on the "outside" of things.

Regarding "The Myth About Yoga and Toning your body", it's obvious that you've never done an advanced yoga practice. We yogi's are not "pissed-off&quo t; about your view, we're just laughing at you! Some of the best bodies, male and female, belong to people who practice intense forms of yoga. Granted, there are more relaxed yoga practices and they will not get you in great physical shape. But try an Ashtanga yoga class. We'll wait for you to catch up, catch your breath, and look as good as us! :) Namaste.

I guess he rather invest in sterioids and hormones than in a yoga class.

I bet this guy has never done Yoga. Let him try it and probe us wrong... He is just talking out of his ignorance about the dicipline of Yoga and Pilates. I feel sorry for the people that pay ghis guy to train them. Such a moron.

Unfortunately, you are very misinformed about yoga. The toning aspect of yoga comes into play when the practitioner is resisting their own body weight while in a position. You certainly cannot build bulk-body builder-muscle by practicing yoga, however, toning is definitely 100% acheived with a routine yoga practice.

For someone like you, with abnormally large muscles, light to intermediate yoga is recommended by the best trainers to stretch out tight muscles to reduce injury risk. It is part of a well-rounded fitness routine. As far as advanced yoga and pilates go, you, in all seriousness, have no idea what you're talking about. Have you ever actually TAKEN one of these classes? If you did haha, you would immediately retract everything you just said.

I am Steve Turano. Welcome to this episode of body performance.

Today this video is going to be piss off everybody who does yoga, karate’s or teaches Carmen Electra’s exercise. These things are stupid. That is it, yes I said it, and they are dumb. They are waste of time. If you really serious about having a firmer, toner, stronger body. You know why? Because you they are certain principles about having a toner, firmer, stronger body that you cannot get away from.

And it is this you have got to stress the muscle, stress on the muscle makes it adopt. And stress on the muscle is created by using weight. Not a line, not a ball, not passively moving around. You have got to move with intensity and resistance. That is why it is called resistance training.

How about that? So when you do these things that are yoga, karate or sugar stretching. They might be relaxing, they might make you sweat but they are not toning your body. Yes, they are great if you are 110 and you had stroke. But that is more like physical therapy. That is not a work out. A work out should cause your body to work, to stretch, to adapt and all these things are not going to do it.

You have got to incorporate some type of resistance training into your daily activities. If you are a guy and you want to be bigger and stronger or if you are a woman and you want to have firmer, toner body you have got to lift weights. Love your body. I will see you next time.
