Receptors in the muscles, joints, and skin provide information about
joint positions and associated muscle activities, as well as about strength
and stretching conditions, pressure and tension, influences of temperature,
and characteristics of the skin surface. These receptors send
stimulants to the brain, which then registers and identifies the source.

muscle activity increases the energy exerted, resulting in greater oxygen
intake as well a higher pulse rate and more frequent breathing.
Muscles that do not exert strength on immediate activity possess tension

for most of the well-known postures show that yoga belongs to the type
of workout with less impact. Yoga has a great influence on the body,

reduced as soon as you are able to achieve a certain posture, thus enabling
more concentration when carrying out an exercise (cf. Ebert,
