[Jeremiah]

Glossy picture book with fit runners. The book focuses on each body area with a nod to breath and meditation.

Creating a book takes energy and time. I might have offered more discussion on agonist/antagonist muscle groups and running recovery.

There were a few poses and stretches in here i found interesting

As a yoga teacher with an understanding of the depth and breadth of yoga, i might have labeled the book, running for yogis, because it leaves out the main reason for yoga, which is the stilling of the mind.
