The word ‘gym’ is derived from the ancient Greek gymnasium.“Gym” is also a slang for “fitness centre”, which is often an area for indoor recreation. They focus on muscle development and core strength of the physical body.

 

Yoga is usually done as a warm-up for meditation in order to relax one’s muscles and slow down one’s breathing. Gyms focus on workout routines and schedules to develop various muscles like biceps, triceps, inner thighs, etc. For one to choose between yoga and exercise is based completely on the outcome expected by them as each of them have their pros and cons.
