For me "Y" of YOG is for youthfullness that is full of energy or agility or vitality or enthusiasm or exuberance, "O" of YOG is for organizedness that is being perfectly organized or systematic or regulated or disciplined or methodical, and "G" of YOG is for goodness that is for virtuousness, for righteousness, ethicalness, uprightness. Yog has the quality of uniting the mankind with nature and has the ability to take us to the level of "Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam" ( The whole world is a family) & a holistic approach to health and well-being. Yog has no boundary of land, sea or mountain, no barrier of caste, creed, language, region or religion or no border of hatred, zealousness or enviousness.
Yog is science, yog is in sync with all religions, yog is gender neutral and above all yog is all about lifestyle choices.
