Yoga Conditioning and Footbal

Yoga and Football? Yes, Ygoa and Football do mix in this revolutionary new approach to conditioning. They mix so well that they produced a winning record for over 40 games for a high school football team - without any of the major injuries usually associated with the game! This is so important because high school football is one of the most demanding sports in America in which hundreds of thousands of young men participate. Few of them escape injury of some kind and almost all of them experience the pain and damage of severe muscles pulls and strains. Jerry Colletto has proved, with his young athltes, that these injuries can be avoided and that a new level of fitnes cna be achieved by anyone through the principles of this program. Jerry Colletto discovered through the principles of yoga the means to increase agility, to make muscles strong but supple, and to develop concentration for body control. He replaced some of the hard physical training that toughens and tightens muscles with his new, often more demanding yoga exercises and the results were astonishing. In Yoga Conditioning ad Football he shows how anyone - athlete or non-athlete - can adapt his program and can learn to gain greater control of the body without reliance on the rigorous, monotonous exercises usually advanced for fitness. Yoga Conditioning and Football is fully illustrated with a series of demonstation photos and complete step-by-step instructions for each of the basic group of 23 exercises. A daily program is presented in which these exercises can be used to develop a new kind of fitness. Try It, You May Make The Team... --- from book's back cover
