Bikram Yoga #1 in Lieu of Running

As my training begins in 2016, I've needed to take an "easier" route to start my training; which is by doing Bikram Yoga. I've been under the weather and thought stretching exercises, poses will do the trick. This is truly a great alternative to my running. In fact, it helps with cross training. I have not done yoga in awhile, like over a a year or so. But if you haven't tried this type of yoga, take the challenge.

Basically, the studio room temperature is set at around 108 degrees. Your in a room full of people dressed like they are about to hit the pool or lay out at the beach. The session is 90 minutes long, in that time you will work on completing 26 poses. The instructor is very good in guiding you throughout the poses, by encouraging and motivating you. Not bad, but as you start the session, it really gets intense and feel your working out.

When you reach the last pose, you'll be so relieved that you completed all of the poses. You'll begin to learn what part of your body needs work in being loose. You can really work on certain parts of you body in your next session. Overall, it's a great training tool. I'll continue with this work out as it really provides many benefits to your health. I have 9 more sessions to go.

Keep. On. Moving.
