Use yoga every day. We’ve been asking what your imbalances are — What injuries are you recovering from or mitigating? Where do you need more strength or flexibility? What problems are real for you, right now?

We love your feedback and it’s always interesting to see the universal threads. Many of you are navigating similar issues. Back pain. Glutes not firing properly. Crunched posture from hours over your desk. Calfs, Achilles, feet all talking to you. Knee strain. High hamstring pain, but unsure how to stretch...

We hear you!

We’ll continue to recommend one key video every day. And this week we’ll also equip you with a longer plan for common imbalances if you want to use more — these are linked below, too. Remember, you can make playlists of your favorites for quick access! Highly recommend getting your top videos together and hitting one of them daily to solve your problems, optimize your performance, and help avoid injury.

Bookmark the plan and follow @athletesforyogahq, where we’ll share the daily video!
