Question by Jowe: Is Practicing Yoga Along With Gymnastics Good?
I am a young guy and i've been doing yoga for a while now. I'd like to begin doing light free weight training and men's gymnastics to further enhance my muscle building and overall discipline. Is this a good plan or would it be detramental in any way? I'd just like to be certain before proceeding? Can anyone provide some feedback? Thank you!

Best answer:
Yes, ofc it is!!! Yoga helps improve your flexibility, which is very important for gymnastics, so yes, it will help you. :) Girl gymnastics usually also are required to take ballet for the same reason, and yoga is also a good form of conditioning. :)

You could try doing 15 minutes of yoga every morning right when you wake up, yoga is good for you overall, it also helps circulation, and then gymnastics lessons twice a week since warm ups especially and warm downs are essentially forms of yoga/streching.
