I've now done 5 classes of Vinyasa yoga, and truth be told I'm loving it! My stamina is improving - I'm managing not to feel faint - which means I can concentrate more on my form and flexibility. Sometimes I get so frustrated at not being more flexible, it's not that I'm totally inflexible, I probably have the most flexible arms I have ever seen! It's just that I'm not flexible where it matters - my hamstrings for example are tighter than a rugby players, and despite 4 months of yoga at least twice a week I can touch the floor with my fingers but no way can I get my palms down there. Patience, I tell myself. One slightly worrying aspect of my practice is the amount of Aquarius I'm drinking - this 'official bevarage of the Olympic games' is loaded with minerals and stuff that is meant to help your work out, but I can't help but worry that it's full of sugar and perhaps not that healthy. The thing is I find it really helps keep me going. Any thoughts?!
