I have applied for a 5 day yoga session in my organization, which is companies initiative towards employee's health. Today was the first day. The session will be a combination of Yoga as well as exercise.
Today was the first day and the trainer who also is a alliance with TCS namely Soma Mukherjee is an experienced, specializes corporate fitness trainer who has been associated with some leading corporate houses in Pune since 8 – 9 years. She also advices her clients on diet & lifestyle management issues to improve their total health profile. To know more about Soma visit, scfitness.
Today's session was about overall fitness and Soma explained what exactly is fitness. It is the people who don't react with a "Oh god" like phrases when bending or performing a related activity. Fitness somewhat is related to stamina. There are two types of exercises Cardiovascular and free weights. Cardio vascular exercises include jogging. Jogging increases your stamina. Weight training is also necessary. Yoga according to Soma is a combination of both these exercises as while balancing or doing some asanas for example while standing on one leg you have to balance whole weight of your body on a single leg, thus asking the muscles of your leg to prepare themselves to cope with it. Similarly while performing asana's related to breathing, you are providing your body with more oxygen and thus boosting your body to carry on the activities like purifying more blood and heart to circulate more blood through out the body.
According to Soma
Why Warming Up is Necessary?
Soma explained why warm up is necessary in simple words which I will try and put in simple words as well.
Some body fluids which are present in the joints needs to get circulated so that the body is ready to handle sudden pressure while jogging or while doing weights. These fluids when flowing provides as a lubricant for the joints and so we can avoid injuries. Rest of the session we were involved in warm up exercise for all muscle groups and after a bit of research a found a ndtv site where you can take a look at each of the warm up exercise in detail.
Keep looking for the next 4 sesssions, I am expecting a lot more from these sessions for all of us.

According to Soma
Majority of females don't pay attention towards weight training. It's true that
for female's weights won't make your biceps buldgy or muscular but they are
important as in long run of life your bones need to absorb more and more calcium
to stay healthy.
