By Kimaya Singh People who practice yoga regularly tend to have very balanced, evenly proportioned figures. The same can't be said about the physiques of people who engage in other forms of exercise, so it's easy to see why so many people turn to yoga to shape their bodies. Some activities build stronger muscles in the lower body; others produce the most noticeable benefits in the upper body. Yoga poses, on the other hand, provides benefits for the entire body, and that's especially true when they are performed regularly and held for increasing periods of time.

By Faye Martins Body shaping is not an exact art. Athletic bodies come in all shapes and sizes. Those who lift weights have bulky chests and arms; runners have lean legs, but often lack in upper body strength. Swimmers have broad shoulders, and dancers have thick muscled thighs.
