Bikram Yoga
I will personally kick anyones ass who says anything to the effect of “Yoga is for pussies.”
Now that’s not to say Bikram Yoga is super intense… but it’s far from easy.
Today I took a Bikram Yoga class. It’s 26 yoga poses conducted over an hour and a half. The key to Bikram though is that it’s done in a hot room. We’re talking 32 degree’s celcius.
I’m a warm room kind of guy. I like being warm and absolutely hate being cold. Thus I thought that I’d be fairly comfortable in this room. Was I ever wrong. The class had already started when I opened the door. I was greeted by the hottest room short of a sauna that I’ve ever been in.
5 minutes in I begin sweating.
10 minutes in sweat is dripping down my forehead.
20 minutes in I remove my wifebeater due to it being soaked in sweat.
By the time the class had ended I looked like I had just gotten out of the shower.
Stepping outside of the classroom was honestly one of the most relieving sensations I’ve ever experienced. And yet it left me feeling very limber and refreshed. I don’t know about the benefits or anything like that but I’d definitely recommend Bikram Yoga for stress relief and to just try something new if nothing else.
After a short break and lunch we then went and did a leg workout for an hour and a half and afterwards my legs were absolutely jell-o. I was in an amazing mood though and I could feel the testosterone rippling through my veins. I’m going to sleep like a baby tonight all thanks to this workout.
I think I’m going to get more into it. Cheers to fitness.

A couple of the guys out West swear by yoga.
Not only is it beneficial for your body, but it helps with your breathing and just completely relaxes you.
Where do you?
first you like stuff like fluffy snow and the Birkham Yoga. lol, j/p.
I was driving on E. Street the other day and I saw this Yoga building… and I was like “you know what, I could check this out.” It popped out of no where. You know how when you’re walking to the store to buy a chocker necklace and that’s all you’re thinking about then all the sudden a pretty as girl comes out of no where, it was kinda like that.
I wish they had a yoga place close to my house. I took an hour class once. It wasn’t done in a hot room and I didn’t feel tired at all by the end. I was actually a bit disappointed at first. And then, to my surprise, when I got out of bed the next morning I fell onto the floor because it felt like every single muscle in my body was aching. Yoga is definitely a worthwhile exercise.
Yoga is for pussies! Okay it’s not easy, I’ll admit that part, but you gotta admit it’s kinda gay-ish to be in tight clothing with your butt in the air and sweating a waterfall.
