Summary

The 2018 Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans (PAGA) recommend 150 minutes of moderate intensity activity for adult (18 years and older) Americans to promote health. PAGA also recommends that older adults (65+) engage in multicomponent and balance exercises weekly as a way to reduce falls and injuries from falls. This recommendation includes yoga, however, the current research and recommendations on using yoga to meet moderate intensity activity guidelines is limited. This study will utilize heart rate monitoring to determine if certain styles of yoga can be used to meet the PAGA.
