First Post
Now I realize that this post isn’t strictly about bodybuilding, but it is about ab/core work, and I thought it was relevant.
So I’m doing hot yoga the other day (on Wednesday). It was the afternoon class, and it wasn’t that full (maybe 12 of us, total). It’s Hot Yoga, but not Bikram’s. I don’t know what Bikram’s is yet, but this is Asana, I think. Since Christmas, they’ve gotten requests to do more core work, so about halfway through the class, the teacher has us flat on our backs, feet in the air, toes pointed towards the wall behind our head. They get us to breath in and lift our sacrum (so our feet are up even higher), then breath out and lift our shoulder blades off the floor. We do this about 5 times, and my core is really tired, plus my shoulders/neck/back are tired as well. This is about the time, doing the crunch where I bring my shoulder blades off the matt, that I can’t hold back anymore, and without even realizing it, a short and fast fart leaves me. It didn’t smell thankfully, but it was quite audible, and someone on the other side of the room laughed. I couldn’t help but smile, even though I was embarrassed. I suspect at this point that I’m taking too much protein. Anyways, doing core work sometimes brings out the worst in me.
