Heavy squats & deadlifts? Long run? Sprints? Here’s a masculine, slow-paced yoga class designed specifically for deep leg stretches and active recovery techniques ideal for those who have recently killed a heavy leg workout, squats, or long running session aka “The Day After”.

I did this to my “Tool Radio Thumbs Up” Playlist on Pandora: https://pandora.app.link/K3FJxc3QGEb Opens super chill and ramps up. No harps, flutes, sitars etc.

What’s Inside:

20+ Stretches: Targeting key muscle groups used in squats and running, these stretches are sequenced to relieve tightness, improve flexibility, and accelerate muscle recovery.

Guided Practice: Follow along with our expert instructor as he leads you through each stretch, providing modifications to suit all levels of flexibility and experience.

No Traditional Flow or Sanskrit: This class strips away the traditional yoga flow and Sanskrit terminology, offering a straightforward, effective approach that’s easy to follow.
