　　Doing yoga regularly offers many benefits，including making you feel better about your body as you become stronger and more flexible(柔韧的), strengthening your muscles, reducing stress, and improving your mental and physical health. But will it help you lose weight?

　　Practicing any type of yoga will build strength, but some types may not raise your heart rate enough to help you carry out your weight­loss plan. It depends on the type of yoga you select and how frequently you practice it.

　　In order to lose weight, you must eat healthily and burn calories by doing exercise that raises your heart rate on a regular basis. Some types of yoga，such as Iyengar，in which yoga poses are held for several minutes with a resting period between each pose，will build muscles and improve your posture(姿势), but will not give you the workout you need to lose weight.

　　If you plan to make yoga your primary form of exercise，you must do a 90­minute yoga class at least three times a week. Many people also choose to combine yoga with running, walking or other aerobic exercises in order to reach their weight­loss goals.

　　The type of yoga you need to do is called vinyasa or flow yoga. This style of yoga is based on the performance of a series of poses called sun salutations(拜日式). Vinyasa inludes many popular and athletic yoga styles. For weight­loss purposes，try Ashtanga，Power Yoga and Hot Yoga.
