Discover the Positive Impact of Yoga on Your Health

5. Low impact and weight loss

For those looking for a low impact sport, Yoga is perfect, as it does not place any impact on the joints. This is ideal for those who have arthritis or any other joint inflammatory disease. Often you can do a variation on movements to better suit your capabilities. Combining low impact yoga training with a balanced diet will also contribute to weight loss. Even though it's not a cardiovascular workout, your body is still working hard which in turn lends itself to dropping some body fat.
