Warrior Training is a method of physical exercise that leverages yoga asana (postures) in the pursuit of strength and muscular development.
Warrior Training is a mind-body exercise system that builds on well-established practices, most notably the systems of yoga and calisthenics. Like yoga, Warrior Training embraces and employs asana—the practice of holding a posture still and maintaining normal breathing—as one of its principal tools. Like calisthenics, Warrior Training requires minimal equipment and instead leverages bodyweight exercises to develop fitness and physique.
The combination of the two, and their respective influences, yields a unique system of asana-based exercise designed to help you develop strength, stamina, and tone while maintaining your flexibility and natural range of motion.
Appropriate for beginners and experienced practitioners alike, this book details with words and pictures every step in the execution and performance of the Warrior Training asanas and exercises. It teaches you precisely what to do, when to do it, and how to do it, all while motivating you to try it out.
With the tools in this book and the dedicated practice of the asanas and exercises within, you will learn how to build muscle and develop strength without the use of weights or machines. You will, at the same time, strengthen the power of your mind, including your concentration, determination, confidence, patience, and self-control.
In this way, you will change the way you look and transform how you feel. This book is your guide to creating a life of good health and vitality. Welcome to the method of Warrior Training.
