New respect for Yoga
I took a challenge from a few ladies at the gym earlier this week with their jumprope class. I was able to hang, so I was doing a lot of trash talking. Well, they invited me to yoga today and I accepted. Ok, first off, let me say that before today, I didn’t respect yoga-ites too much. All they’re doing is stretching and humming in a hot room…WRONG!! I got twisted up, short on breath, cramped up and all kinda other stuff that doesn’t happen when I lift. All in all it was good and I hung in there the entire hour (although I didn’t do all of the positions). But the joke was really on me when I found out AFTERWARDS, that it was the advanced yoga class!!! The ladies thought that was really funny. It’s cool, though, because I’ll be back next week!!

Right on Ed. Being twisted like a pretzel does have many benefits! I do a thai yoga massage at my clinic. They sometimes call it "lazy man’s yoga", where I do all the work and place you in crazy stretchy positions. It’s loads of fun!
Good on you. You go back to that class and show them up
