Time to get the edge back


Recommended Posts

*sigh* Ok. Discipline needs to be worked on.

 

Change of plans: I've downloaded some yoga routines and I'll work my way through them.

 

Here's the fist series:

I don't intend to go too far with the stretches. I don't want to injure myself.

Phew! I just finished a set of that yoga routine up there. It took about 50 minutes to do it, including transition between poses (ie wiping off the sweat), so about 45 minutes of actual yoga. It feels really good though. I think I'm in love.

 

Oh, and people who say yoga is not real exercise are idiots! Man that was hard, especially the last few poses. I held the poses for two minutes for the 'single ones' and 1 minute each side for those that alternate. The standing back bend was murder. I did 2 sets of 30 seconds. It's all I could manage.

 

Here's to mastering that routine and moving on to the next one!

Where did you hear yoga is not real exercise? Is one of the hardest things I've ever tried. With any other type of exercise I tried I got some success, with yoga I always quit because it is too hard. Don't discourage, if you like it keep on!

Some people think yoga is easy because you don't end up so out of breath you might puke. Yeah, looks can be deceiving. I got DOMs from those two sessions I did. Who would have thought resistance training would be hard? *sarcastic*

Excellente progress pal, yoga after running, why didn't I think of that? xD And yeah, yoga is as legit as you can get. I find that it's definitely necessary long-term esp. when doing other exercises, otherwise I find that without yoga, I lose stamina...

 

Keep on keeping on my friend! :-)

Hey guys!

 

Nothing's happening. I'm focusing on diet, taking it slow, biting my nails for Dragon Age: Inquisition.

 

Oh yeah, my grand mother passed away. It was very quick, she didn't suffer and both her children were with her when it happened. She's at peace now.

Oh I'm fine. As I said I wasn't too close to my grand mother. My mother is taking it hard though. It was her mom after all.

 

I'm keeping myself busy until Dragon Age:Inquisition comes out. :D I've actually started to write fanfiction again. It feels weird to get back to writing. Weird in a good way. :)

I'm back!

 

After relapsing on everything (yes, even smoking) and undoing almost all of my hard work, I'm back to do this for reals.

 

So, I'll start by fixing the food issue first and foremost. Gotta go get some milk and yogurt. Shakes are easy and combat my lazy side. I will reintegrate exercise later. Gotta fix the diet first.
