The resistance training of yoga is definitely a great strength builder without adding much weight. It tones you up, for sure, and helps you to become a lot stronger in a relatively short period of time.
Lots of time is spent on core work, upper body strength, and basically the whole body. A vinyasa flow yoga has been the most intense of a workout for me.
If you have the time, try it. It’s a great way to improve your body even more.

I used to do up to 20 per day regularly after morning runs, then one day as part of a spin class in the gym we were asked to do 100 push ups! and I did it without going through any progrmas etc… after 80 my upper body muscles were burning and I was soar for about a week but I did it!
