Yoga Thread 3

[Missus O]

@shinies - you can try checking groupon deals or metrodeals around your area. Yoga is really good for your body, if you want to. That way you can check it if its for you. Mahirap sya gawin while doing it, pero yung after effect ng workout. Adrenalin rush galore . .. hehe.  May iba kasi,  yoga is not for them. Personally, I have tried going to the gym (mas mura sya hehe), but I get distracted easily.  I can't do the exercises solemnly. I guess there is something about yoga wherein kahit madami kayo, I can still find solemnity in my mat. . Yung barkada ko naman, she prefers running, than yoga. She gets her high that way.

Those taking bikram, careful kayo lalo if sensitive skin niyo. Went for a skin check up few weeks ago kasi nag flare up skin ko, I have rosacea pala which was worsened by extreme hot temperature sa bikram room. Was advised against hot baths and saunas din.

Nakaka-frustrate mag bind haha!  Yung iba daw umaabot ng years bago makapag-bind.

Among pose kayo hirap?

[Missus O]

^ I can do bind poses, pero nahihorapan na ako pag tumatagal na yung hold. Medyo sadista kasi yung instructors namin. But then I guess masochist ako, kasi yung mga pinapasukan kong instructors eh ganun hehe.

I have tight hamstrings, tight hip flexors and after 2 months of holiday sa Pinas, I felt as if nawala or nabawasan yung arm strength ko. Hehhe. Kaya nahihirapan ako uli mag handstands, kahit pa wall assisted ito. I have been doing yoga regularly since October of last year, and I still have very tight hamstrings, this doing splits are still out of the question. I also still have weak core, kaya still working on my bakasana poses. Although compared to last year, I have done some major improvements. Sabi nga nila, do your time in your mat.. and everything will follow...in time.. namaste mga sis

[rarity]

I can say I m very flexible madali saken ang splits and the likes pero hirap talaga ako sa boat pose hahhah nanginginig ako 
 I think eto ang main challenge ko so I can  do the headstand na strengthening my core. Any tips mga sis aside from easy on the rice

Oo nga sabi din ng kaibigan ko (lalaki pa yun ah) voucher din siya nagsimula. Abang na lang ako gusto ko sana sa Urban Ashram kasi yun malapit sa amin

Nakasubok ako ng isang session nung nagkaroon sa opisina namin. Ok naman Gym ok lang din naman sa akin at may libre nga dun sa tinitirhan namin. Mas "peaceful" lang yung yoga.

[rarity]

^ I think in metrodeal sis they also have for Life, Bikram and Beyond ngaun although wala sa Urban

[shinies]

Oo nga sis wala pa sila voucher puro sa iba. Sayang kasi sa oras yung travel time baka malate ako

Sa classes lang ba talaga nagyoga kahit na marunong na kayo? O meron sa inyo kaya na magisa?
Pag may bagong gusto matutunan, saka lang mas ok magclass?

[Missus O]

@rarity - hahaha.. i feel your pain. Before my wedding, I was able to only eat 1/3 cup of rice 2x a day.  Now umaakyat na uli sa 1/2 cup. Minsan umaabot ng 1 cup pag masarap ulam. Nagrereklamo na din asawa ko. Wag na daw ako magluto hehe... But really, I am back to 104 (from 115) kaya I am trying to maintain it that way hehe.  Less rice, more water, take the stairs instead of the lift kung 3 flights lang naman. No junk food, less ang kain sa fastfood.  And no sweets (including ice tea and soda). Plus yoga nearly everyday.  That worked for me. 


@shinies - I practice yoga in class and at home. For me its important to take classes, kasi sa classes you get corrected on your pose. Plus you not only learn the various asanas, you also learn the karmas, the chakras which is what yoga is all about. Its like teacher training pero no notes, hindi ganun ka in-depth, and you go on your own time. In Bikram alone, there are 26 poses and its variations depending on what your level is. I used to practice Bikram, then went on to Power yoga, but now I regularly practice Vinyasa Yoga. So that also has a number of poses plus variations. So parang it takes years before you can really master certain movements. If there is something that I want to work on, that's when I do it at home sa free time ko. Normally before I sleep. hehe.  I love to do deep stretches kasi. It relaxes me.

I learned from a friend na may yoga unli sa Gold's Gym. Once magpa-enroll ka ng 1 month sa Gold's Gym, unli 1 month ka na din ng session sa yoga nila. May zumba pa daw, etc. Magkano naman kaya? Lalabas kasi mas mura pa ang membership vs. per class ng yoga.

-- sis I started sa youtube try Yoga with adrienne meron for beginners don madali lang but it really got me hooked.

--Oo sis Missus 0 rice ang salarin hahaha pero ang maganda sa Yoga talaga for me its good for the mind and body. Ang galing mo sis ha from 115-104 nakita ko nga yung ibang Yogis mejo chubby sila pero super flexible wala talaga sa weigh yun noh when your ready your body can do the poses   

[shinies]

Aaah ok salamat sa mga reply niyo!

Dapat ba hahanapin yung klase ng yoga na para sa inyo? O pwede naman paiba iba?
Iba iba kasi yung mga nakalagay sa mga website nila di ko alam kung dapat ba ikaw pipili o sila magsasabi ano gawin.

[snowkeis]

Missus O: Frustration ko talaga bind poses sis. Marichy Asana C  yan na bumabaluktot na ko haha! Pero yung A kaya ko. I tried Bakasana last week lang ang hirappp! hahah. Feeling ko masusubsob ako. Consistent practice talaga kailangan, strong arms, core. 

[twinxz]

anybody here na nag-yoga na sa Anytime Fitness? its a 24-hr gym. a branch will open near our place, curious ako if same sa Gold's Gym na mas mura membership than per session/class.

OO sis may different kinds of classes like Vinyasa, Yin, Ashtanga etc. But I recommend you try Vinyasa yan talaga ang gateway yoga its generally easy and basic to help you ease into the practice kase pag ashtanga or power yoga right away baka di pa ready ang body mo and then ma turn off ka na sa yoga
