Day 11 of 90, awesome!
Shoulders and arms + ab ripper X went swimmingly yesterday, and I'm continuing my improvements with ab ripper X. It's pretty exciting!
Yoga X today was wayyyyy better than my first attempt, which to say the least was a complete and epic failure. I found myself more in control of my body and much, much more relaxed. I still couldn't do some of the most advanced poses, so I stuck with the less flexibility-demanding versions of the advanced poses. So far as moves requiring lunging stances such as the warriors and crescent, I found myself able to stay deep in the positions way longer than last week! A huge motivator. This improvement made the yoga more fun, and instead of completely clearing my mind like Tony says on the video, I instead focused on one thing: challenging my body to finish each move strong.
They might be slow movements, but they're incredibly difficult to do for an extended period of time. I'm confident after the improvements in only one week that by the end of these 90 days I'll be AWESOME at yoga.
It's reassuring to me to see the improvement too, because it's making the yoga less of a struggle and pain in my ass than it should be (considering that I hate yoga, if I can remotely enjoy it that's a victory).
Not really looking forward to working the legs hard tomorrow, but I'm sure I'll see great improvements like the other workouts so far! Squats and pull ups, let's BRING IT!
