    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    Written by a former Arsenal FC sports therapist, this is a practical yoga guide for all ages and abilities to help you play football better for longer.

    Yoga has now become a standard part of football training with players such as Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo practising regularly. Sharon Heidaripour is a former professional footballer and Arsenal sports therapist turned yoga instructor and knows all too well that the contact sport can lead to damaging injuries. However, many of them can be prevented if you can spot areas becoming fatigued, overloaded, imbalanced or inflexible.

    In this guide, Sharon teaches you routines that can be integrated into your daily life - on and off the pitch - and weekly training to help prevent injury and support recovery. Exercises focus on hip flexibility, hamstring prehab and rehab, core strength, lower back mobility, relaxation and breathwork through morning, evening, pre-training and pre-match, post-training and post-match routines.

    Through colourful, step-by-step photographs, Sharon shares more than 70 yoga poses with clear instructions, top tips and options to suit all levels and ages, whether you are a casual, amateur or professional player.
