Day 55 – Yoga X

Today I did Yoga X around 2:45pm, I have several fans going, so the heat was not as bad as yesterday LOL.

Again I managed to do a push up before every downward dog and all my up ward dogs were without my knees, and all my chaturangas were nice and low without touching the floor.

Today I tried to lower myself a bit more on all the warrior poses as sometimes I dog it like Tony says LOL. So I tried working on that. Don’t know what I did different today, I felt my abs a bit sore for a while today, so something seemed to work harder. I know that I worked hard for yoga belly 7 but I was already feeling them before I got there. But now that I mentioned it, I really worked hard on yoga belly 7, for boat I tried to make it a bit more weighted by leaning a bit more back and for 3 part touch the sky, oh man I started pretty high and when I got to the third, I was pushing so hard, I think I had half my back off the floor, it was great.

The angle poses, I still struggle with those, still can’t pass my arm under and grab my hand on the back, I keep trying though.

Another cool thing was toe lock, I was able to keep it for 15sec each so I only fell out of it once and then back into it till the end, and this time I was able to put my other hand on the back. I was like, COOL!

I tried crane again, same thing, no difference here, however I was a lot sweatier because of the heat and had a hard time trying to keep my knees on the back of my arms, it kept slipping LOL.

Oh I almost forgot, when I was doing half moon, I was able to hold my leg extended for the entire length of time, between the stretch, then the half moon and twisted half moon. Before I had to put my leg down in between and then bring it back up, so that was cool.

OK so tomorrow I have X Stretch, as usual for a Friday + weight and measurements, and this time because Phase II ends, I will be taking pictures to compare with Day 1, end of Phase 1 and end of Phase II, not sure when I will have them done and uploaded, but make sure to come back tomorrow to check them out for sure, I can’t wait to compare.

Thank you for your time:
