Just got back into the gym again and want to incorporate yoga. I find that it relaxes me and I think it could help me with my lifts. I'm just not sure when to incorporate it.

Do you follow a video or something, or do you get used to the poses and know what to do?

I found the calisthenics people have decent ratio between flexibility and strength.

Have been following this guy on and off for months. He also has other 15 min to 1hr videos for yoga/flexibility/strength which have a decent progression level.

I follow YouTube videos for flows at home. There are a bunch of options depending on your skill level, time, and type of yoga to choose from. If you're brand new I would say to not do a flow more than 30 minutes and make sure the video is geared for beginners or else you'll end up trying to do a headstand or half-moon before you're ready. When I was starting out I personally found 'Yoga with Kassandra' to be the best for me in terms of learning.
