[PvP/Game] Beer Yoga!

[ApfelStrudi]

As invented in MaxCurtis' Feb-Apr Challenge!

 

Read the rules carefully! Please only do exercises that are at your level! If you use glass-bottles/glasses, be extra-careful. We don't want you to get hurt! If you do an exercise and notice you can't manage to add the drink, please stop and get a new exercise!

 

How it works:

 

Basically, it's a type of twister game, only instead of spinning the colour-wheel, you roll dice and instead of the twister mat, you do a yoga pose.

 

- Use a dice generator/use a d100 die and roll once. (For example this one: http://www.rangen.co.uk/misc/dicegen.php )

- Go to the PvP spreadsheet, look up the number you rolled. 

- Do the pose, and once you're comfortable enough in that pose, pick up a drink.

- Take a sip, then give evidence (picture or video, whatever you're comfortable with)

- Put the name and date of you accomplishing the pose in the spreadsheet and colour the name of the pose green

 

 

Rules:

 

- Under no circumstances overextend yourself. This is a game, and of course a bit of a challenge, but we really, really don't want to see you get hurt.

- The PvP is loosely turn-based. There will be no set order to allow people to come in whenever they want, but once you've had your turn, you have to wait for at least one person do strike a pose before you can turn again. 

- Each pose can only be done once. If you roll a number that's been rolled before, roll again! (unless we reach 100 super quick, then stars all over again in the next column!)

 

Please note! While this PvP is called 'beer yoga', you don't have to drink beer. You have to drink something, but what it is is completely up to you. You can use your hands, mouth, and in really complicated poses/if you don't feel comfortable using either to hold a bottle or cup, you may use a straw. You don't need to drink a whole bottle either - the drink is just a little extra.

 

Bottoms up!

 

[MaxCurtis]

YES YES YES

 

 

Because drinking beer every day would be contrary to my goals, I'm doing every week with this one. I'll post pictures or videos or something. Quick question though, what's the "give advice" part? Is this random, silly advice like, "happiness can't buy money"?

[ApfelStrudi]

Oh! That's me being a herpaderp. That was supposed to say evidence, not advice. Clearly, my brain is mushy enough without beer! I'll edit that away

[OrangeJorwell]

Is this random, silly advice like, "happiness can't buy money"?

Never bet on a horse named Tripod?

 

 

I'm so happy that this is a thing.

[Batwoman]

Ooooo not sure if I will join this challenge because of the carbyness of beer. I might drop in for at least one yoga-beer pose pic.

 

This is awesome! Well done all!

 

[ApfelStrudi]

I'll do it completely without beer/with beer only once or twice because I usually don't drink alcohol at all, so you guys feel free to just use water or whatever else you prefer!

[iatetheyeti]

Heh, I'm definitely up for this one

[Mad Hatter]

Hahaha I'm so in! Best pvp ever!

[Mad Hatter]

Dammit! I got a tough one - balancing on one leg while drinking beer. This will be entertaining

[raptron]

Hahahah, this is awesome! I am totally in! [Though probably sans beer for most of them seeing as I am doing a 1x/week drinking thing, alas.]

 

Edit:

 

 

Oh boy... definitely gonna need a straw!

[Mad Hatter]

Extended-hand-to-big-toe-plus-whisky-drinking-pose

 

 

Sorry about the terrible quality, the app I use that has a self-timer is awful.

 

And yes, I'm wearing pjs and drink whisky at 6pm. Because I'm a grown up and can do whatever I want!

[Batwoman]

Fuck yeah! Why be a grown up if you can't have the perks!

 

Hatter always leading the awesome way... down the awesome-bricked road. I might have to start this PVP tonight

[ApfelStrudi]

Bahaha that is awesome. I have a bottle of Namibian beer (and a Namibian cider) at home, I'll get mine done when I'm there (also after I've had a shower and put on clothes that don't have stains on them).

 

 

 

That looks painful and like broken legs, but I'll give it a try. HORSEFACE.

[Mad Hatter]

That looks so weird. Glad it ain't me.

[MaxCurtis]

ApfelStrudi, I have no clue how you will manage to hold a drink in that pose, but I'm sure you'll figure it out, with your awesome.

 

Hatter, you're just adorable. Haha, and I love how you show up fighting at every PVP. You're a boss.

 

I drew this one:

 

Almost feels like cheating cos it's so easy, but as a brand-new-to-yoga person I will take it!

[Mad Hatter]

Haha I just tried to compensate for a crappy challenge. It didn't work, the do stupid number of reps challenges are not for me. But this one!

[ApfelStrudi]

So, I had to reroll. I tried the pose, and variations of it, with boyfriend support, but my knees just don't bend that way!

OH THE SHAME!

I drew number 51 - pigeon pose with head down. Did it with head all the way down on one side but when boyfriend took the pic it just looked like I was pissed and passed out:

 

 

So I did it again with head a bit higher (also because straight back - I'm still having issues with my back, usually I can get my foot further towards my boobies):

 

 

The original:

 

 

And because I'm cool like that (and wanted more cider) I did a twisty version to get my arm pit as close to my knee as possible.

 

[Mad Hatter]

Hahaha awesome pictures!!

 

And no shame! I tried that pose, and it's frickin' hard. I suspect you need full lotus to do it like in the picture.

[Why not?]

I've been toying with the idea of trying out yoga to increase my absolutely abysmal flexibility.

 

However, if I do this, it will likely be with vodka.

[Nymeria]

Now I'm really sad that I can't do yoga for another 2 months. This is such a fun PVP!

[ApfelStrudi]

With all those poses, I'm sure we'll still be here in 2 months And if not, we can always just start over.

[ShamusMcRuckus]

I'm in!

[ApfelStrudi]

I have a namibian beer waiting for me so someone better do the next pose And then I'll have to go shopping.

[Why not?]

I drew #24, which is Cow. This is fortunate, because I have never before tried yoga and know nothing about yoga.

 

Also, now my back hurts...did I do something wrong?

 

 

I can't believe that actually counts as a yoga pose.

[21niko21]

Wow, what an awesome challenge. I hope my knee gets good enough to take part in this. The beer will count against one of my goals, but at least I'll be doing some yoga at the same time!
