I've had a knee injury that happened a couple years ago. The mobility and muscle in the right leg has gotten weaker progressively because subconsciously I started using my left leg more.
I've started doing DDP yoga and it has helped a lot, with gaining strength in my right leg, core and overall balance. For anyone out there that has some kind of injury you can still train using low impact methods such as yoga. I'm not sure if yoga is magical or not, but the low impact routines + stretching allows your body to correct itself. The goal is to improve mobility enough to start lifting in 4-5 months.
Anyone else in the sub do DDP yoga ? would love your input on how it has helped you.
EDIT: Don't think yoga replaces lifting or other forms of fitness. My main goal is to get mobile enough to do my lifting routine. After a couple weeks of ddp yoga I did some lifting at home today and felt great !. Routine has changed to lift push/pull/legs/off. Do 20 min ddp yoga after every routine.
