Does anyone here do Vinyasa yoga?

[Winters]

I have been doing it for a short while and have already felt the benefits in my lower and upper back. I haven't really seen any benefit in my cardio but I'm not concerned about that. I'm going at least four times a week. I am extremely inflexible and was wondering if anyone had started yoga and gained a lot of flexibility. I have extremely tight hamstrings and quads. Just curious about everyone's experiences. Thanks, go cats!

Mich does yoga!

[dontfeedthebear]

I'm a huge fan of yoga.  It's done wonders for my back as well.  Not sure what other activities you do, but you'll be surprised what a stronger core does for you.

I actually started teaching it, but doing so got me out of practice, mainly because I have my friends coming to my classes, which is cool, I guess.

don't you fart a lot?

I haven't (yet), but one class I was teaching an older lady farted.  No shame, she said, "Oh, that's some stinky chi"

I couldn't help but 

[michigancat]

I have never farted in yoga. Not sure why  everyone thinks you do.

And most people don't realize that many yoga classes can really improve your overall strength.

Yeah jerky it was a serious question. I don't know you from crap, so how the h would i know? You mentioned being very inflexible in your hammies and quads, which suggestions you may run. I sleep with a yoga studio owner here in town and perhaps I could hook you up with yoga tips/classes what not if you're serious.

Guys it's terrible at first but then after a few times it starts to be great.

[EMAWmeister]

I'm an absolutely pathetic distance runner.  Short stubby legs don't like it.  I'd like to get good at it though.  Do you just run or what?


Fun fact: ran a 4.7 in high school #fanningbrag
