There is a mistake on your web page concerning the Physiological
Benefits of Yoga in regard to yoga
and strength. The page cites that the Golgi Tendon
Organ works in response to stretching of the muscle. Actually,
this response is handled by the Muscle Spindles, the GTO works in
response to muscular tension. I do find it very interesting that
Yoga practioners have been working on the theory of developing strength
without bulk by inhibiting the GTO for thousands of years, however,
I think that you should attempt to be as clear as possible when
dealing with these issues to avoid any inconsistencies and to avoid
damaging the reputation of Yoga.
Thanks, Keith Cannon
