This morning I did Cardio Coach 3 on the Treadmill/Elliptical. I did the w/u, c/d and steady state on the treadmill and jumped on the ellipitical for the hills and sprints. This one had lots of sprints. Sprints are not that hard for me.....I have difficulty with those 3 minute intervals! I need to work on that. I burned 388 calories.
I finished off with Namaste Yoga - Head to Knee. Lots of hamstring stretches. Again - I'm not sure about these. I guess they are good if you just want to fit in a bit of yoga everyday and don't have time for an hour class, but I tend to love the way I feel after an hour class. This wasn't a difficult practice either. If they continue to be this easy, I'll use these in the evenings instead of the AM.
I need tips on how not to be overwhelmed. I've got so much that needs done around here. I really don't feel like doing anything today, cuz I have to make up perfume samples, but I need to start going thru my clothes and rest of the junk in the house and trying to clean out. My problem is that I either go thru it and don't throw anything out (I'm a pack rat), or I feel so overwhelmed that I just throw my hands up and avoid it. Any tips?
Karin - I like the Lunar Segment on Yoga Radiance. It's actually the only segment I've really done more than once on that DVD. It's good for a morning stretch routine also.
Meg - That move you're talking about is in P90 Masters and it's also in some of my yoga DVDs.....as I think it is a yoga move. I actually love that move. It feels good to stretch the back while working tha abs like that. In P90 Masters, Tony calls them Abranome's.
Jen - Regarding that Kundalini session, I was getting different sensations. Some of them were physical, from the repetitive arm movements.....it tends to get a little difficult when you keep doing a move for an extended period and you welcome the rest that's coming up. I also get a feeling where it's not really "lightheaded or dizzy" per se, but more of a "elevated" feeling. It's hard to describe. It's probably something similar to an endorphin rush. You're blood is pumping thru you and you feel elevated. Also, during Sat Kriya's, you can actually feel the energy in your body rising up your spine as you continue with it.....it starts at the base as a warmth and keeps rising up your spine and into your arms. I tend to really like that move for that reason.
My pain is actually flaring pretty badly today. Just looked at the calendar and I"m due to start in a few days, so this is common from the hormonal surge....tends to make pain worse.
All of this Gliding has made me break out my old Reebok Slide tape. I'm gonna try to do some Sliding this week for crosstraining. I get bored quickly so I'll probably only do it for short periods, plus I remember the soreness you get from sliding when you first start and you have to start in 10 minute increments.
I'll be back later. Have a great day everyone.
