I have a question about stretching and yoga

I like exercising. I always do high intensity cardio or cardio+resistance training (low weights + high reps) workouts 5 days a week.

Some people advise me to do some stretching and yoga.

Do you think that it is really necessary to stretching? With my level of activities, I really feel limber enough, but I am not sure if I suffer anything in the long term.

By the way, I can do stretching, but I do not like Yoga at all because it is a spiritual or religion-related exercise. I only like physical fitness workouts, not a religious workout.

Can anyone give me advice? If I do stretching, do I need to do Yoga?

Thank you very much!

i dont think yoga is necessary as i feel the same way you do about the spiritual part of it. as long as your already stretching and you do enough cardio, it doesnt sound like you need it!

Thank you very much!

I have been using Beachbody company's products. I know that this company's focus is helping people become healthy and fit and get in shape, so I believe that Yoga poses in those programs are just used for physical benefits. However, I still dislike Yoga.

If you say so, I am totally confident with what I am doing now. I will never touch Yoga.

Thanks, again! Good night!
