It includes an energetic sequence of yoga poses including details on how they benefit the runner specifically. While this is a program aimed at an intermediate level, Christine's instructions are precise and clear enough for anyone to take part. Participants are encouraged to stay within their limits while being given the tools to explore deeper. This yoga program will result in greater balance and symmetry by stretching tight areas (hamstrings, hips, lower back) and strengthening weak areas (inner quads, adductors, core, upper body and back). Equipment needed: yoga mat, yoga belt, yoga block (optional), towel (optional). Review: If you are a serious runner, you really need to buy this. Really. - This DVD will probably save me hundreds of dollars in the long run - it's cheaper than ONE SINGLE yoga class (at least, where I live) and I will use it over and over again. I am long distance runner and triathlete with perpetual injuries that I'm trying very hard to prevent. Searching local yoga studios for "yoga for runners" yielded nothing, so I reluctantly turned to the DVD variety (I've never used a DVD for yoga) and chose this one based on the good reviews. So let me add another. Oh my gosh! It is exactly what I needed! The combination of hip tightness and weakness is a disaster for runners (me) and it's tough to put together a stretching and strength program on your own that completely addresses that. This is it. Through a series of poses including a variety of lunges, you will feel basically everything strengthen: adductors, abductors, glute medius, quads, hamstrings, everything. The stretches are also fantastic, getting deep into the hip flexors, piriformis, tensor fascia latae, etc. You will also work your arms, shoulders, abs and back to an extent. I love that the instructor, Christine Felstead, talks about why each pose or stretch is great for each muscle and how that will help your running, and how to make sure you are doing the pose with the correct alignment. Many different modifications are shown among the 5 participants so you can see how to do the pose if you're tighter, need to sit on a block, etc. I also love that although her voice is a bit breathy, there is no chanting, ohmmmming, or general cheesiness. The entire workout, minus warm up and cool down, is still about 75 minutes, but quite frankly that's the right length for a yoga class (60 - 90 minutes) and I feel like the poses are held for the appropriate length of time in order to get a full strengthening/stretching benefit. Even though it's the same workout every time, and that will probably get a little dull, it's an appropriate trade off when I consider what the purpose of doing this is. The workout probably is "intermediate" in the sense that you'll likely want to have had some exposure to yoga before you do it, and some of the poses are challenging to stay in (this means they're helping - but if a posture is too challenging in any yoga class you can always drop into downward dog or child's pose for a moment). I haven't resolved all of my nagging injuries yet, but I am starting to feel a lightness to running that I haven't felt in a while, and improved posture and form. I am so happy to have this in my toolbox and look forward to continuing improvement! Review: Good workout, too long - I bought this DVD with the intention to add a yoga workout to my routine 1-2 times a week. It is a great workout for runners and hits on some of the most important areas to strengthen and stretch, including glute and hip strengthening and piriformis, hamstring, and ITB stretches. This is in line with the exercises given to me by my PT to combat my ITB tightness and support correct alignment of the ITB. However, I find that the video runs a bit too long for me to fit the entire thing into my week often. I'm not sure of the exact length, nut it runs well over an hour. Also, it advertised a short workout version, but the only short workout I found on the DVD was just a list of suggested exercises to do when short on time, but not an actual workout with the instructor. Overall, I would recommend this video to others looking to balance and improve their running. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B004GHBQNI | | Actors | Christine Felstead | | Best Sellers Rank | #220,230 in Movies & TV ( See Top 100 in Movies & TV ) #3,470 in Exercise & Fitness (Movies & TV) | | Customer Reviews | 4.0 4.0 out of 5 stars (129) | | Director | Christine Felstead | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item model number | BV2219 | | MPAA rating | NR (Not Rated) | | Media Format | Color, Dolby, Multiple Formats, NTSC | | Number of discs | 1 | | Product Dimensions | 0.7 x 7.5 x 5.4 inches; 2.61 ounces | | Release date | March 1, 2011 | | Run time | 1 hour and 26 minutes | | Studio | Bayview Films | ## Product Details - **Contributor:** Christine Felstead - **Format:** Color, Dolby, Multiple Formats, NTSC - **Genre:** Exercise & Fitness - **Language:** English - **Number Of Discs:** 1 ## Images ![Yoga for Runners: Intermediate Program - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81vUgOAeBAL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ If you are a serious runner, you really need to buy this.

I have been having hip/knee issues from running and have been back with my yoga practice for about 3 years now. I did watch this all the way through first before trying it and I would advise anyone to do the same. It was helpful to know what to expect before getting started. The way I do this practice now is I start and go a full 45 minutes and then shut it off and come back the next day and finish the final 45 or so minutes. I find this to be very helpful way to go for someone over 50 who has tight or sore areas they are dealing with. Or anyone just trying to do a more in depth yoga practice. I like the pace of this practice very much and I find the voice is fairly soothing and quiet. Yes, her speech pattern is maybe different or distracting to some people but she isn't really yelling or rah rah cheerleading so I don't mind the way she speaks. I like the long holding of the poses for good stretch and strengthening. I find I really like this more so than other videos or online practices I have used that move from one pose to another very quickly for more of a calorie burn or rush through a practice to get 30 minutes of activity in. Really not what yoga is all about in my mind. Anyhow, it is also really nice to see normal people in various stages of the poses so you can see how they are able to use their own strengths or weaknesses in their yoga practice. Its not all about the one right way to do a pose. Different people, different body types, different abilities. I think I like this part of this particular video the most. I can look to see if I can choose to do a pose the way one of the other people in the video is doing it. If I can't, then maybe I am just not able to go all the way into a certain pose. That's life. Really recommend this for anyone who has some yoga practice knowledge but as it says it is intermediate and not the best dvd for beginners. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.be/products/4817577-yoga-for-runners-intermediate-program](https://www.desertcart.be/products/4817577-yoga-for-runners-intermediate-program) --- *Product available on Desertcart Belgium* *Store origin: BE* *Last updated: 2026-05-24*
