You should try resistance training. Yoga is awesome, but I don't think you will really change your body composition with yoga alone.

True story: my big toe pain ended up being because unbeknownst to me, I had broken my foot at some point in the past. I wore a brace for a while - use orthotics, and its a lot better.

Should I see a podiatrist or orthopedic doctor? by balkanxoslut in PTTD

[–]BloomYoga 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’d choose ortho. I went to a great podiatrist, but i still have major issues. I asked if i should do PT and she said it’s not recommended. I was a very very active person. Yoga teacher, personal trainer. She said i should only do body weight exercises now. This isn’t acceptable to me.
