During the in-home yoga intervention, participants performed 30 to 50 minutes of yoga postures three to five times a week for 12 weeks, including 5 minutes of warm-up exercise, 15 to 30 minutes of dynamic flow yoga postures, 10 minutes of weight barring standing postures, and 5 minutes of cool-down. These in-home sessions were a repeat of what participants learned during the first week of training session at UML. We progressively increased the intensity of the home practice sessions by adding the number of sun salutation (SS) over the 12 weeks.
