20 Minute Hatha Yoga (for Runners) | Fightmaster Yoga Videos

[@paraskevikagiaoglou48]

I loved doing the video this morning after my run! I love yoga because of Leslie. Her energy still makes the world a better place ❤

[@joannelegros-kelly7688]

Great prep before a hike. Thx. Have a good day Duke and all the fightmaster community. 🙏 😊

[@emmap.1288]

I've been coming back to this video for a few years. Thank you!

[@selinaprager5932]

What a beautiful class! I keep coming back to it over and over

[@trashbag_lol]

I feel fantastic after this one! This is also great for hairdressers with tired hips and legs. I love practicing with you Lesley!

[@Viva-La-Lila]

Cool to see the roots in one of your older classes. It was always great content, but it's awesome to see the origins and how relatable it makes it feel. Now your in 4k! Amazing to see that journey.

[@laurabelmonte4187]

That was exactly what I needed tonight. I loved that I could hear the waves lapping in the background !!

[@Fightmasteryoga]

Laura Belmonte Awesome! Thank you Laura!!

[@heremeraldeyes]

I didn't realize just how tight I was from running until I started going through these poses! This video is definitely going to be a must-do on my off-days from running. Thanks so much!

[@lexiem6667]

I used to be a ballet dancer, and now that I'm in college I have taken up running - it's amazing how tight the muscles get! The stretches were great, simple and effective and very similar to ones I used to do as a dancer (although I get a LOT more stretch out of them now!) I also love your energizing flow yoga and I plan to alternate between these two for a while. I take a free yoga class at school, but it's so helpful to have found this channel to be able to practice over summer.

[@PrettyJackie143]

Lesley you're reading my mind! I start every day off with a slow paced yoga warm up followed by a run and ending with one of your videos. Your way of teaching fits my body and mind so well. Today after my run my legs are especially tight so when I opened your page and saw this I laughed with joy. Thank you for sharing this :) dripping in sweat, Jacqueline

[@ultratoneytrainer]

Excellent flow for runners! All the poses one needs post run 🤙🏼

[@oliviadebear7951]

I loved this short but very helpful class; I've been a runner for 5 years and my hips and hamstrings have become so tight throughout those years. It's very depressing since I used to be a gymnast/dancer and mastered splits in all directions :( But with your help, I'm sure I'll get back to where I used to be :) Thanks for the video!

[@KAEmmons]

ahhhh this is the PERFECT post-run flow. Feelin so good right now. :-) Thanks Lesley!

[@Fightmasteryoga]

That's awesome! Thank you!!!

[@allirahanczakowski6947]

As a marathon runner I get really tight in all these areas and I do this video so often. It's really perfect, and would absolutely LOVE a new class similar to this!! 🙏🏻

[@nadiasvilenova]

It was my first time doing yoga video of yours, I was so surprised (and happy) to see longer yoga youtube videos! It was perfect after my run this morning. I love your calming voice and gentle approach. Thank you so much Lesley!

[@marianne_1980]

That quote about following the current was right what I needed this morning - thank you so much!

[@babylone1205]

Dear Lesley, I've been doing your classes for 6 months and I LOVE them, and have been telling everyone I know about them. Today I did this class which is one of my favourite but it was interrupted *twice* with advertisement. I understand that you need the revenue from the ads and don't know if you have any control over what KZbin does ad-wise (probably not) but I thought you should know as for me this is a total killer! I can deal with the ad at the start but during the class it completely disrupts the atmosphere and focus that you so skillfully establish.

[@jillduckstein7499]

Perfect for after runs and when getting home from work. Enjoyed it!

[@barrygleissner7863]

Lesley, I wanted to let you know that this is my new warm up before heading out the door to referee soccer games. It hits all the right spots. Sunshine and butterflies to you!

[@Fightmasteryoga]

Barry Gleissner Awesome! I'm so glad to hear it!!

[@virginiaeckert6624]

Everything about this practice is wonderful! You are a great instructor, Lesley! Thanks!

[@Fightmasteryoga]

Virginia Eckert Thank you so much!! :-)

[@liv95liv]

Thank you again for another wonderful, nurturing class Lesley! This class is very relaxing aswell and completed this tonight after a cycle this morning and a day at work, feel great now! Thank you for sharing

[@crossguided88]

Thank you for this video and I was gladly pass it along to all my runner friends :).

[@ThePlannerPlaceCo]

Thank you so much for creating these videos! Your video classes have been just what I've been looking for to incorporate into my daily practice. God bless & namaste 💜

[@sheilasis]

As a marathon runner, I found this very helpful. I have problems with my hips and groin and this video really helped. Thank you.

[@Fightmasteryoga]

sheilasis I'm so happy to hear that! Thank you! :-)

[@melaniecrocker673]

Just what my hips and lower back needed! Thank you! :)

[@hiromicharles9502]

Thank you for sharing. Perfect 25 min between my afternoon run and pick up the kids after school!

[@Fightmasteryoga]

Olivier Charles Awesome! I'm so happy to hear that this works for you! Especially in your busy schedule with kids. We have two boys 7 and 10 so I know that life it so busy...although also so awesome! :-)

[@UnleashedOffshore]

Love all your classes. This one is perfect for runners! Thank you so much for sharing.

[@angiesrecipes]

A wonderful lower body class!

[@dmmtsn]

I've been enjoying your videos… thank you for being so sincere in your practice!

[@shaynakrasula836]

Absolutely wonderful practice today. You continue to enhance the quality of my life. The water in the background of this video was so peaceful and serene. My mind is always running, and today during savasana I had cleared most of my thoughts which is the quietest my mind and body have been in quite some time. Thank you again for dedicating your life to the better of all humans. I will continue your practice for the rest of my life and I will tell anyone who will listen that the way to a better life is through yoga, self acceptance and understanding your body. You're an absolute angel Lesley. I'll see you soon ❤❤

[@claraschulte356]

This was a wonderful Routine for runners. I am currently preparing for a halfmarathon and yogaroutines have become part of my weekly plan. Additionally to the perfectly chozen poses Lesleys voice always helps me to calm down, to be mindful and it makes yoga feel like moving trhough water indeed. I will think about this during the 18kilometer Training run that is planned for tomorrow and have a very good night sleep after this flow. Thank you very much, as always Lesley!!!

[@Fightmasteryoga]

Have fun on your half marathon! So glad the yoga is helping ❤️😊

[@pamelamichelle3474]

Thank you for this much needed yoga for runners! It's almost as if you read my mind!! Love Fightmaster Yoga!!!!!

[@alunthomas697]

Lesley, thanks. - As an ex Royal Marine I have real trouble with my back after lifting heavy shit, but thanks to these vids I can sleep a full night without waking up in pain. A.

[@Fightmasteryoga]

Alun Thomas I am so happy to hear this this is helping you sleep at night...there aren't many things worse than back pain!

[@MLBOOG]

Just did this routine after a hard 30 minute cardio. This was an awesome routine!!! Thank you!!!!

[@angiesrecipes]

Did this after a lower body cardio...absolutely wonderful!

Well, I am not a runner, not even remotely, but this felt wonderful, I added this class this morning after day 32 of Yoga Fix 90 :) Thank you Lesley!

[@Fightmasteryoga]

+Zsuzsanna Benkó I'm so glad you liked it...I always love stretching the hips too!

[@SondraRankin]

Just what I needed this morning! I ride my bicycle, but these stretches were very good for my tight legs from yesterday's workout. I would love to see an actual "yoga for cyclists" class - I think it would be well received, we have a large community of cyclists out there who would appreciate the class. :)

[@penguinjam9000]

Excellent video! I paused and stayed in poses longer :D feel great!

[@ddtravers1]

Did this before work and love it!!! I will do this after my runs as well, thanks for a great hip opener practice Lesley!!!!.

[@MarieSmithJacksMom]

thank you for this nice class. I am so incredibly tight this morning. I needed this

[@Fightmasteryoga]

+MarieSmithJacksMom thanl you so much! I'm really glad you enjoyed it!

[@matt_1718]

I don't do yoga but I injured my foot and wanted to take the opportunity to do some important work on my stretches. it moved fast which was good for keeping me engaged but was a little hard to keep up @ some points. over all, really liked it. especially the hip stretches. thank you!

[@Fightmasteryoga]

+Matt _ thank you! If you practice this a few times, you probably won't have any trouble keeping up...because you're new to it, it's hard to know what to expect. :-)

[@MzBick]

Such a beautiful class! I just went for a run the other day and I was SOOO sore! This class really helped me out! I will be sharing it on my FB Group, Wellness Meow! My friends love your classes as well! Love all that you do! Love within, love around. -ENB

[@Fightmasteryoga]

+Mz. Bick (Erin Nicole) thank you so, so much for sharing!! I'm really glad this class helps you when you're sore! :-)

[@bridgetann0224]

love :) as a runner who is injured to due bursitis this is just what my hips need! thank you.

[@exhorteras]

Thank you so much for this video! I'm not a runner, but have had a LOT of tightness in my hips since I was a teenager (I'm 25 now) and yoga is slowly but surely helping out with that problem. Your videos are always wonderful, and this one felt particularly great in opening up my hips. Thanks, Lesley!

[@pickleandcheese]

Really awesome class, helped a lot with my recovery from 12km run!

[@Fightmasteryoga]

Glad to hear that!

[@happyearthkitchen8097]

I do this class after my morning runs. You are one of a kind Lesley, thank you for this.

[@Fightmasteryoga]

+Happy Earth Kitchen You're so sweet, thank you! xx

[@firwooddogtraining9137]

thank you for your classes i hurt my feet running and have lower back problems i have not been able to exercise as i like your classes have given me something to do keeping me sane and helping with any pain thank you again

[@katherinejackson8804]

Just what I needed. Thank you so much. Loved the lapping of water through the practice

[@isabeldeviagavini9916]

Amazing video and great instructor! Love it and will practice it every week from today to make my body more flexible for my running sessions :)

[@Fightmasteryoga]

+María Isabel Devia That's great! I'm so glad you enjoyed it! :-)

[@ethancole4666]

Great class, it's really helping my legs recover from long runs and hikes. Have you ever considered Patreon.com for receiving donations?

[@Thewickermandj]

This felt great after a very competitive 5k. I finished 9th overall! Woohoo. But afterwards, the legs were so tight! This was a nice way to loosen up. It's amazing how much my balance and strength have improved since taking your classes. Thank you!

[@aaronguidry05]

First time here doing this yoga video. As track sprinter I have suffered from a tightness in the lower back, but participating in yoga has relieved me of this pain. LOVE your video!

[@Fightmasteryoga]

+Aaron Guidry Thank you. We have many more videos for when you come back! :)

[@AdithiMathews]

Thank you for this wonderful class Lesley. You are such a wonderful and inspiring teacher. Namaste' 🙏🏻

[@Fightmasteryoga]

+Adithi Mathews you're so sweet, thank you!! xx

[@Lifeismycanvass]

Loved this class! I did a 15 mile run yesterday and this felt soooo good! I also really like the waves in the background noise, it made me feel calm relaxed and happy. Love it when you say thank you at the end of your class, makes me feel very glad I joined you today. :)

[@gretchenverhaalen4632]

Loved this video! Thank you! I think I have a frozen hip and my running is aggravating it, so I love all these nice dynamic stretches. Your class is great and your voice calming and directions clear. Thanks!

[@jenm473]

Not a runner, but I LOVED this for all my tight spots!! Bless you and thankyou

[@Fightmasteryoga]

Jen M thank you! Blessings to you too! xx

[@emilyparsons27]

Wow, this is like THE best yoga for runners I've found. I just subscribed, and I'll definitely be back!

[@Fightmasteryoga]

+Emily Parsons Thank you SO MUCH! Welcome to our channel and thank you for subscribing! :-)

[@Freya_s21]

Wow I just got more sweaty doing that than I did in my run. Thank you

[@Fightmasteryoga]

+Freya2105 You're so welcome...I'm glad you enjoyed it!

[@carolineforster2178]

Great session post run, I feel great! Especially the hip stretches, really helpful :)

[@gabrielavazquez3227]

These are amazing. Thank you so much. The flow is a little fast, but there is a lot packed in! This felt amazing after my jog in the morning. And your evening flow one is really making a difference in my sleep routine. Again, thank you. You have a very calming voice which is perfect for yoga.

[@missdarque]

It was a little fast for me too. I'd like to have another version of this in which we spend a little more time in the poses.

[@ctclaunch]

I love all of your videos Leslie! I only wish this one was a little slower so we could get in to the stretches deeper. I found myself pausing it a lot to continue a stretch...running has made my legs sooo tight.

[@Lottesofbooks]

I have a shin splint for a year now, and I stopped running since july ... I miss it a lot, but whatever. I don't know when I'll be able to run again, but in the meantime, this video will be a great help because my hamstrings are really tight ! I always had tight leg muscles, I looove to stretch it out ! Thanks again dear Lesley :)

[@dhirajgupta2960]

signed up for my first marathon. in June, and I am really looking forward to this one and more videos during relaxation days to strengthen my muscles. I will also look out for videos after my daily run. Thank You #FightMaster.

[@Fightmasteryoga]

+dhiraj gupta That's so awesome!!! Good luck with your training and your first marathon! :-)

[@dhirajgupta2960]

Just wanted to leave one small Thank you note. I successfully ran my half marathon. #FightMaster

[@cypressdiesel]

This felt amazing after my run - your practices are a gift! Thank you Lesley!

[@brookestrawn9784]

Thanks, Leslie! I love your classes

[@MissPolymer]

Thank you Lesley 🙏🏻 lovely stretches for my tired legs and I so enjoyed the sound of the waves 🌊

[@daniellelloyd9717]

I've been training for an upcoming race and have begun doing this routinely after runs-- I must say, this video has helped completely eliminate the tightness I was feeling in my hips during my runs! Thank you!

[@Fightmasteryoga]

+Danielle Lloyd that's great! Good luck on your race! :-)

[@djc0108]

Did the yoga sessions help with your running ?

[@OliviasCatastrophe]

It's been a tough day, hard enough for me to not feeling like getting out of bed this morning and doing yoga. But after having a pretty down day I decided to give a shorter, half hour practice a go. It was really refreshing to be out of my thoughts for a bit and focus on the movements. Thank you.

[@Fightmasteryoga]

I have those days. You are doing very well in your yoga journey ❤️

[@jackiehaines6599]

this was great to do after my session of "hills"! loved the poses...even though they are tough for my tight hips! can't wait to do this one again. thank you!

[@Dougalastyle]

Great class, thank you Lesley!

[@Fightmasteryoga]

+Dougalastyle you're so welcome! Thank you!

[@jackiehaines6599]

just got backs from a run! thank you for this fantastic session!

[@freddiehercury28]

Thank you!! Just what I needed!

[@luciesalacova545]

Thank You so much for doing this video. I've just started with yoga and this video helped me to find some interest in this area. I always feel so good at the end of the video. So thank you once again!

[@Fightmasteryoga]

Lucie Salačová I"m so happy to hear that you've started yoga! Welcome to our channel and I'm glad you enjoyed this practice! :-)

[@earthmoon626]

Really loved this, feeling nice and stretched after my run now :) thanks lesley x

[@angelisivaraman888]

Great practice! This is one of my favorites. Also, I love your yoga onesie :)

[@Fightmasteryoga]

+Angeli Sivaraman Thank you! I got it on Amazon a while ago. :-)

[@stilted]

I'm not a runner - but this was still a nice class for me. threw in an inversion in the middle. thanks! 🙏

[@FavAirbrushGirl]

Thank you Leslie!!

[@Yogapazzo]

New subbie here! Great hamstring & hip openers! Thanks for sharing'

[@Fightmasteryoga]

Yogapazzo Thank you!! Welcome new subbie!! xx :-)

[@Shaina00]

My hamstrings say thank you and Namaste Lesley! #holyhamstrings

[@Fightmasteryoga]

shaina singh Namaste!! xx

[@chibimaiden2467]

I did this video before and after power walking and I didn't have much pain afterwards! Also at the end hearing the water was very relaxing as well. Do you have a video for chronic low back pain?

[@farrahrene5630]

Thank you so much tight ropes became loose string, heavenly feeling on my hamstrings

[@JR-ep6zl]

I did this class as a warm up for my run. Really energizing and a great way to wake up my muscles. Do you think that running regularly tightens muscles and hinders progress in a yoga practice? Thanks for the amazing videos, as always!

[@JR-ep6zl]

Thanks so much for the advice!

[@liyatle]

jessica accorso I used to have a yoga teacher who taught at a climbing gym and she addressed this issue. Her advice was that stretching after a workout will NOT make you more flexible, it only relaxes the muscles after working out. She said if we want to get stronger AND more flexible, we need to work on flexibility everyday in addition to post workout stretches.

[@JR-ep6zl]

I know you left this comment a while ago, but thank you so much for your advice! I've been alternating running and yoga every week and if anything I've been feeling a little more flexible. Thanks again for the tip!

[@bizzquik1981]

This was a great class.. I was wondering if you would add or do anything different for cyclist?

[@Fightmasteryoga]

bizzquik1981 I think it would be similar, but I would probably also add some shoulder and chest opening because in cylcing, your position is leaning forward with the upper back and shoulders kind of rounded. Try this class for your shoulders and upper back: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iH_TkoN8i79rh7M I hope you enjoy it!

[@mbeisafar1297]

thank you, i just found your channel, you are amazing

[@Fightmasteryoga]

+Maryam Heidari Awesome! Welcome!!! xoxo

[@erikadavis21]

Amazing, will do this soon :) is it better to do this before or after running? I was reading a little about kundalini yoga, do you think you can do a practice like that? I love your videos, namaste.

[@dennisfrymire]

Thanks for sharing.

[@sleeplessinmtl]

Wow, I didn't realize how tight my leg muscles were from years of running (and injuries). This was really great! Thank you - how often would you recommend doing this class as I'm recovering from a running injury (achilles tendonitis + baker's cyst..sigh)? Thanks again! X

[@crisgh7459]

thqnk you:)

[@Fightmasteryoga]

:)

[@TheAteam4eva]

Leslie, you may have already mentioned this in the video or comments section below but where did you get the bodysuit from? l need this in my life! l'd really like a onsie workout leotard for yoga. Any suggestions welcome! :)

[@inakrabbe9622]

I love this class, but it was twice interrupted with advertisement. It`s not so good in yoga. But at all, I love your chanal. Greetings from Germany Ina

[@Fightmasteryoga]

+Ina Krabbe Oh no! I'm so sorry to hear that. I'm glad you let me know because that's not supposed to happen!

[@missdarque]

I was told by my podiatrist to stretch my calves and hamstrings. A pilates instructor friend of mine told me I already have really flexible hip flexors. Which video would you recommend?

[@Fightmasteryoga]

Try my 30 day Hatha Yoga Happiness program :)

[@Marilyn3rietveld]

I love twisting, but I can't find your tutorial on twisting you mention in the video. I probably overlook it :) What is the title of the video? thank you!

[@Marilyn3rietveld]

thanks!!!

[@ahmedalmoaber8952]

that was a rough session.. you gorgeous thing.. thnx

[@Fightmasteryoga]

+Ahmed Al moaber lol, thanks!

[@silviamari1677]

Miss you, preciuos angel!

[@MBkompressor]

i'm a runner that as a pubalgia... Whats the best "move" to cure that?

[@Fightmasteryoga]

+Jorge Rocha Unfortunately I'm not familiar with that condition. Sorry I can't help.

[@MBkompressor]

Ok. Thanks anyway!

[@kerijensen6527]

The sequence is great--but the speed is too fast for me. As a runner, my preference is to increase the length of time in deeper asanas that hit the hip flexors and hamstrings.

[@Fightmasteryoga]

kjensen jensen I totally understand. You might enjoy this class: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qYiygZ93YqeqkNk

[@kerijensen6527]

Thank you! I'll check it out!

[@culturevulture72]

Some nice stretches but I would have liked you to have held them for longer. Some poses were held for less than one breath so I don’t actually feel that I got the benefit of them. Also the video is a few breaths ahead of the audio so what is on the screen is ahead of what you are saying which was a bit frustrating.

[@Fightmasteryoga]

Feel free to use the pause button. This video was made a few years ago when we were learning how to make yoga videos. :)

[@jodyhakala-ristow7014]

Good poses chosen. Frustrating because most of the poses you held for a second, not even one breath, I was not hardly in position and you changed it. Probably be alright but I couldnt hear clearly. Ill try it again but it was difficult to hear or understand direction.

[@urisrssfeeds]

as a moderately serious runner, i have seriously inflexible legs. I've found that way less poses done for far longer are way more effective. these are too quick and do nothing for me

[@Alex-nh7cl]

I was really feeling good about this video until an Expedia commercial pops up in the middle of the flow. If you're going to have KZbin commercials, put them at the start or end of the video.

[@Fightmasteryoga]

+Alexander Finlay What?!?! Oh no! I'm so sorry...that is NOT supposed to happen. I'll look into it. Thank you for your comment.

[@kathleenbucchianeri3136]
