While yoga traditionally gives you a lean and toned body, it can support muscle growth when poses are held for longer periods and combined with a proper diet rich in protein. It can beautifully blend strength training and functional movement that tones muscles, enhances stability and develops endurance.

by engaging the muscles through various poses that use body weight as resistance. Unlike traditional weight training, which isolates specific muscles, yoga engages multiple muscle groups simultaneously, allowing the body to work as a unified system. Holding poses requires sustained muscular engagement, which builds endurance and strength in targetted areas. Additionally, these poses work on muscle fibres.
