Abstract:
India has a rich tradition of yogic practices. Now-a-days yoga, the ancient practice of postures, breathing and meditation is gaining a lot of attention from health care Professionals. With increasing scientific research in yoga, its therapeutic aspects are also being explored. Suryanamaskar – the salutation to the god sun is also a part of Indian traditional yogic practices. Each cycle of suryanamaskar is a sequence of certain ‘asanas’ performed along with pranayama’ The nomenclature 'suryanamaskar' is composed of two terms 'surya' (meaning 'the sun god') and 'namaskar' (connoting obeisance). Both the words have their roots in Sanskrit. Surya Namaskara is a series of 12 physical postures made up of a variety of forward and backward bends. The sequence of asanas is such that each asana is complimentary to the next. During Suryanamaskar, muscles of the entire body experience stretch and pressure alternately and therefore it is said to give more benefits with less expenditure of time. The series of movements stretch the spinal column and massage, tone and stimulate vital organs through alternately flexing the body forwards and backwards. While performing surya namaskar the breathing exercise (pranayam) gives more oxygen to your lungs. The rhythm of breathing becomes heavy with vitality. Each breath becomes deep and clear. It carries more oxygen to the parts of your body. Surya namaskar has a deep effect in detoxifying the organs through copius oxygenation and has a deeper relaxing effect. It reduces stress, rejuvenates us and improves circulation and as a result this study was undertaken to find out the effects of suryanamaskar yogasana on muscular endurance and flexibility.
