yoga in this context refers to ONLY the stretching.
Then you should have just said "stretching".
Yoga is a generic term.
So is "strength training", but it's not so generic that I get to just make shit up.

No strength training is specifically hypertrophy where your body creates new cells.
You are more like doing endurance training which make cells for ADP/ATP.
And you likely aren't doing it like a perscription where they target the weaknesses. Rather general.
In the context of the original post, it is clear why I mentioned yoga in that list.
There are ways to become strong other than the 3x5 Starting Strength program. Why even use the term yoga if you meant stretching? I guarantee you any Starting Strength hero who walks into a halfway decent vinyasa class will get wrecked.

Physical therapy is not lifting weights.
Read the context
Become better at communicating so people don't have to "read the context" and infer meaning in your words that exists only in your head.

That is the point of context
If your instructor is having you do low rep, weighted exercises, it does hypertrophy and would improve that muscle.
Yoga is a generic term.
