OMG - what a morning!! Today my friend and I decided to follow one of my well planned hair brained schemes!! We bought a voucher from Cudo.com.au for 10 classes of Bikram Yoga. I have always wanted to try Bikram Yoga but always thought it was a little pricey so hadn't bothered with it as yet.
I don't know what made me think that I could actually do Bikram Yoga since I can't do normal yoga let alone touch the floor with my legs straight. It probably did help that I was already tight in the back of the legs and butt from yesterday's bridge walk!
I decided to brave the scales and weigh myself on the way in to see how much weight you lose during a session. I can't believe that even though I couldn't do all the exercises properly that I lost a whole kilo in 90 minutes!! From now on I think I should turn off the aircon and walk around in an oven at home and I'll be super skinny by the end of the week (but then again knowing my luck I'd still be lumpy and just look like a sultana!!) lol.
It's impossible to hold your foot up (with slippery hands due to heat) to your waist while standing on your toes then sitting down on the floor without the heat thrown in. I have enough trouble getting off the floor after playing with the kids!! But worse than that the instructor then informed us that we weren't allowed to talk!! Now that's just torture!!
I have to say though, that now I actually feel quite good so even thought at the time of this heated torture I swore I would never set foot in that heated room of hell again! Now all I have to do is convince my friend to come back with me!!
