How long, after yoga session should i wait.

[Duannddn]

Well i just started doing yoga, about a month ago and i really enjoy how i feel afterwards. Since i feel rejuvenated and full of power after a session i like to do it in the early morning. I like to lift weight, or do some cardio in the afternoon or at night if I have the time and energy. But, i read online that doing yoga makes you temporarily weaker, because of the static stretching.What you think?

I'm no expert but I would say that it depends on what your focus is with weight lifting. If you want to get big (not ideal for yoga) then you might want to set up a weight lifting routine and do yoga in your off days. If you just want to stay fit and keep lean muscle mass then it really shouldn't matter. Use lighter weights with more reps and you will be fine.
