Q&A
The "Godmother of Yoga Hybrids" Kimberly Fowler on December 20th will
release her third yoga-with-a-twist DVD's and this one has a little
muscle.
YOGA + WEIGHTS combines moves from Fowler's signature YOGA for
ATHLETES® class with 3-pound handheld weights so students get more than
strong, they "Get RIPPED!"
"Yoga elongates your body, and paired with weights, the result is long,
lean muscles," says Fowler, founder and CEO of YAS Fitness Centers.
"YOGA + WEIGHTS takes the strength training of yoga to the next level."
The 30-minute YOGA + WEIGHTS takes students through a series of
weight-bearing poses, including Chair and Warrior poses paired with a
shoulder press and Side-Angle Pose matched with a lateral row, all with
Fowler's signature Sanskrit-free, easy-to-follow instructions.
Many doctors recommend weight training as the best way to prevent bone
loss. "As women near 40, we start to lose muscle mass, which can cause
bone loss," says Fowler. "YOGA + WEIGHTS let's you build muscle mass
without bulking up, and the more muscle mass you have, the more calories
you burn."
A former elite triathlete, Fowler is known for designing yoga classes
with athletes in mind. "Many of my students were taking yoga classes and
then rushing off to the gym to lift weights," Fowler says, "so I
created an all-inclusive class."
