Today I bring you another Yoga Double-Feature, this time from Tyler McCoy.  I checked out Tyler’s YouTube page based on the advice of a neighbor and I owe her a thank you.  From all the different exercises, accidents, running and martial arts I’ve done over the years, my hips and back are tight pretty much all the time.  Anyone with lower back issue knows what I’m talking about.  This first routine focuses on loosening up the hips, and I felt a noticeable difference after the first time I tried it.  The second routine is a little advanced in parts (if you aren’t Plastic Man), so you may have modify or just sit and watch like I did.  Don’t sweat it, though, just try to get a little deeper next the next time you do the routine. 🙂
