Yoga's Effects on the Cardiovascular System of Healthy Women: Implications for Best Practices.

Conclusions: Healthy women can practice a modified and/or a shorter duration of the Chaturanga Dandasana. Adjustments in the Utkatasana, including having the arms in the prayer position, may help prevent strain to the cardiovascular system. Also, practicing poses with a longer RR interval may aid stress-related health problems. PMID: 32663177 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
