Yoga Anatomy 3D, Volume 1 by Ray Long

This book offers a scientific approach to yoga. Using many colorful, three-dimensional illustrations of the skeleton and the most important muscles, ligaments and tendons, orthopedic surgeon Ray Long describes the practice and benefits of Hatha Yoga.

Anatomical and physiological descriptions explain which muscles act as agonists, antagonists or synergists in certain asanas (yoga postures) and how the individual body structures and breathing are related.

Understanding the forces and organs involved in yoga can help to break down blockages, avoid injuries and improve training success and body awareness. This book will be an indispensable companion for beginners and experts alike.
