  • my exercise confession: day 4 of p90x.

    I did 40 minutes of Yoga X.

    it's a 1 and half hour workout, but i stopped after 40 minutes, boy its tough! and i've never done yoga before. it was also hard figuring out what he was doing, when i had my head looking down lol. so i will slowly be able to learn the moves. next time going to start off where i stopped the dvd, and build it up slowly. he was right, you do sweat! its quite a workout!

    also i'm just about to order a yoga mat, as doing it on the carpet was uncomfortable.

    i feel nice and relaxed now

    have a super day girls!! Bring it!
  • Jen, hope your abs feel better.
    My quads/inner thighs are hurting as well from couple of the ab/core moves in ab ripper X. My whole core is sore where it hurts to cough and laugh. It will get better.

    Thanks Echo and Michelle. Yesterday, it was one of those days where trying to finish my workout was not easy. Even though I realize the importance of exercise in my life I still struggle with it a lot and am hoping that hanging here in the exercise forum will just help me through these type of days.
    Tonight - Weight training

    Have a wonderful day everyone

    hehe definately i will! i've never done yoga before today either. i like how its meant to be good for your body to stretch it out. i still cant touch my toes when i bend over, but slowly i am getting closer! i've been practising stretching that for over a month now.

    you should try it one day!! it's different , more calming and relaxing, but at the same time intense! you can feel the burn!!!

    I like what Tony says, that at age 45, he can do what he can with his body, not because he can do so many press ups, but because he does yoga!
  • There's a yoga section on the Wii Fit and My Fitness Coach..maybe I will try one of those out for a bit
