My dear brothers of /fit/ care you spare some assistance?

I really want to start a yoga regimen to help with my mobility and to nurse some nerve issues I'm having. I'd like to get a book, but everything I find is fluffed up with the spiritual and lifestyle talk.
I'd just like a nice, clear cut description of the poses, what they work, how they work, and possibly their progressions.

Do you know of such a tome? A YouTube channel would be fine too.

It's a bit "spiritual" but apart from that I found it helped me pretty well with my tight shoulder.

Some of the girls are also pretty cute.

Yoga without all the spiritual frou-frou stuff isn't called yoga. Its called stretching. So just look for a good book on stretching.

OP here.
I would agree with you, but what I like about yoga (from what little I've tried in the past) is that it teaches you different ways to transition from one pose to another. I feel this will help more with my mobility issues than just strentching.

there's a lot more to yoga than stretching and spirituality
beyond spirituality yoga includes:
development of physical strength
development of mental strength
development of physical flexibility
development of mental flexibility
development of physical balance
stress relief
breath control
heart-rate control
physical healing
mental healing
et al.

Cont. because I forgot the useful part.

try:
Yoga with Adrienne
5 Parks Yoga
or if you can get your hands on it P90X yoga (specifically for strength and muscle building)

Try to vary your practices with practice 4 or more days a week.
1 day power
1 day deep stretch
1 day flow
1 day balance
1 day power
1 day whatever you want but easy
repeat

you have room there for 1 day off, if you want, or to include whatever else you want

practices should be at least 30 minutes, preferably over an hour at least 5 days per week

Appreciate the thoroughness. Not really needing to be sold on the benefits of yoga, I just need something comprehensive so I can know which direction to take my training.

As for /fit/, I like to give them the benefit of the doubt. It's 4chan, sure, but there are plenty of level headed people on here that give good input. I find that, as long as you don't feed the trolls, you can do just fine.

It's like any successful exercise routine: be comprehensive and don't focus on one aspect of the training or one part of your body.

5 parks is particularly good - lots of different styles of practice available at range of times and levels, plus Erin is super cute.

A book:
Light on Yoga
A YouTube channel would be fine too.
30 days if you never done yoga before:

Stretch X and Yoga X are great too.

The confusion is that you're interested in Hatha yoga specifically.

Integral Yoga Hatha by Swami Satchidananda has routines for beginners and can take you to advanced. Follow the program completely, including the optic and facial muscle strengthening exercises.
