AriAnnabri Posted June 7, 2012 Report Share Posted June 7, 2012 I've been doing a vinyasa yoga class at the gym for about 3 months now. I'm over weight and inflexible BUT!!! Today I was able to hold downward dog for the entire time the teacher asked us to and I planked just like everyone else. I wasn't on my knees today. I felt strong today. I felt my inner yoga warrior RAWR! Link to comment
Librarian of Doom Posted June 7, 2012 Report Share Posted June 7, 2012 I love that feeling! I had my heels touch the floor for like two seconds in downward dog the other night; I seriously almost started yelling in the middle of class, I was so excited!!! Yoga woots FTW!!!!

AriAnnabri Posted June 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2012 Congratulations! I have a long way to go before my heels touch the ground, but is *IS* a goal =) Does that add a point to your dexterity? Link to comment
AriAnnabri Posted June 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2012 Thank you Tiger's! It felt especially good since I had been on vacation and out of my work out routine for 10 days. Link to comment
