Message from Dean:

I am extremely appreciative that you are open to learning about how you can improve your health with me. You are part of the new generation; a generation that cares more about their personal well-being than the judgments of the ignorant. Soon you too will find what Ive known for years - that yoga has the power to transform your life. as a sign of my gratitude, Im giving you this eBook, The Road to Yoga-Ripped, a compilation of my most popular (and many of my personal favorite) editorials that Ive written since founding Man Flow Yoga in 2013. It doesnt matter if youre a fitness fanatic, or just starting to take your health more seriously. The Road to YogaRipped brings together insight and knowledge from a variety of areas into one easy-to-read format that will help instill you with the motivation and the know-how to get yoga-ripped and live a healthy, pain-free life style. It gives you a front row viewing experience to some of my deepest and most personal thoughts, and it reveals knowledge that Ive accumulated over years of immersion in yoga, physical fitness, collegiate sports, and overall health and wellness.

The Road to Yoga-Ripped is special because I reveal what was going on in my life at the time that I wrote each blog. I give you a front row seat into the environment and the state of mind that I was in when I wrote each of these essays. Youll understand my personal reasons for writing every one of these blogs, my intended audience, the desired result, and learn a little bit about the behind-the-scenes marketing of a niche fitness company.

My mission with Man Flow Yoga is to help you do the things that you want to physically perform at the highest possible level, and for as long as you possibly can!

This introductory eBook is just the tip of the iceberg of a yoga brand that will change everything you thought you know about yoga and get your body feeling and looking better than you ever have before.

My Personal Story:

My first yoga class was entirely on accident. I was looking for the tailor and stumbled into a Bikram Yoga studio. I had always been interested in yoga but had never taken a yoga class before that day. I asked the yoga instructor if this class would help my athletic performance. (at the time I was a lacrosse player for the University of Wisconsin.) She told me that it would help me tone my muscles and make me much more flexible. That was exactly what I was looking for. Then she said that I didnt even have to wear my shirt for the workout. Two hours later, drenched in sweat from head to toe, feeling like I had just exited the pool, and utterly exhausted, I had just completed my first yoga class. It was, and probably will remain, the hardest workout that I have ever done. From that point on, I was sold.

after two months of doing yoga consistently, I realized that the benefits of yoga extended far beyond flexibility. My level of limberness skyrocketed, and so did my endurance, body control, core strength, and balance, just to name a few of the benefits I was experiencing. More than that, it made me even stronger in the weight room. I first began instructing yoga as the conditioning coach of my lacrosse team in 2011. That success encouraged me to take my knowledge and passion to a larger audience. I started Man Flow Yoga in January of 2013 to bring the physical benefits of yoga to as many people as possible. Since then, I have been teaching at gyms, parks, workshops, international retreats, and online. Im also a #1 bestselling author. My eBook, Yoga Basics for Men, reached #1 in 4 categories and is a featured book of the month on amazon. I am a certified 200- hR Registered Yoga Teacher through Yoga alliance.

Yoga - The Exercise That Doesnt Stop -

Date of publication: March 5, 2015

I wrote this article because I get sick of people saying that they will do yoga when they get in better shape. Yoga is so much easier on your body than other forms of fitness, and it makes much more sense to learn the basics of movement

through yoga, rather than doing them at an accelerated rate 2015

and priming your body for injuries before youve eaten had a chance to see some physical results. Basically, learn to crawl before you learn to walk. I also wanted to encourage people looking to restart their physical fitness routines to try Man Flow Yoga, as a fitness-centric form of yoga that will teach you the foundations of movement more quickly than most typical yoga classes.

Yoga - The Exercise

That Doesnt Stop

Ive always been a proponent of utilizing as many forms of physical fitness as possible in order to make yourself as fit as possible. I encourage people to lift weights, to go running, to try a spin class, or do cross training. But, I always come back to yoga as the primary form of exercise. Mainly because, in my eyes, it is the most practical. It is the one form of physical fitness that Ive done that hasnt left me with a chronic injury, or taught me bad habits. I think the objective of your physical fitness should be just that - keeping your body physically fit. Well duh. What do I mean by that though?
