6-24-15 HY: P90X-Yoga X + TCF.

6-24-15 HY: P90X-Yoga X + TCF.

Morning workout today with all the loveliness.

I have been wanting to do Yoga X for a while to see what scared me about yoga so much so many years ago.  Today, I had just enough time to fit it into the morning slot, so I went for it.

I have to say, The moves and poses weren't that complicated. Neither was the flow.  It seemed like one pose at a time. I found it a bit odd that the vinyasa's and the balance poses were clearly separated.  I was a bit shocked when Tony said, "This is our last vinyasa." and there was still about 40 minutes lift in the routine.  The only move that I really found difficult was the combination of... I forget the move, but it went straight into the wrap.  I think it was Right Angle Pose, then straight into the Wrap. My glute was cramping bad by that time and I had to come out of the pose and shake out my booty a bit before getting into it again. On both sides.  It is also very interesting to see who moves have progressed through Tony's programs.  Moves like "Abernome", where we hold a lot longer with Yoga X and only 4 reps.  The holding for 30 seconds was also interesting.  But I think that compared to the other Yoga routines Tony has, even in X3, This is by far the most basic, dare I say easiest.  But I actually kind of enjoyed it this time around.  But for me, 90 minutes is really long.  I did get an awesome sweat, and I burned over 400kcals.  I also felt really good all day.  Compared to yesterday, today was totally AWESOME!!!

I had to dash off to work so I didn't do the Flow until evening.  My knees were feeling good, and I went through all my Flows without feeling any observable pain.  Flows were solid with no hiccups.  I'm getting there!

Today was like a prize for working so hard yesterday. No night class, and the last session of the day was canceled so I got to go home early!!!  Hard work DOES pay off!!! BRING IT!!!
