| Abstract: | The article presents information on some alternative approaches for physical fitness. Yoga can help attenuate the effects of delayed onset muscle soreness, the pain that sets in after doing a new physical activity. If one alternates yoga workouts with weight workouts, it lengthens and loosens muscles so they can be contracted even more fully. Another fitness activity called Pilates builds muscle endurance in the limbs as well as the core. Tai chi, another technique for physical fitness, improves balance, coordination, and more. |
