On the Road to Becoming Healthy and Fit: Yoga

I just did Hot Flow Yoga at Fitness First, and I realized 3 things:

1. Flexibility is not proportional to body fat nor built, it really isn't! Most of the people in my yoga class have larger built than mine, some of them "healthier", and damn, they CAN flex their bodies really well. My gulay! I ended up like a "lantang gulay" by the end of the class, all sweaty and lousy.

2. I am NOT flexible. Period. But having done all the impossible stretches, lunges, three-legged dog, warrior position, etc. etc., I felt rejuvenated. My body kept sweating; my back, even though it hurt, was stretched far beyond its capabilities (which was good for my scoliosis); I felt that my arms and legs strengthened a little in doing those watchamacallit positions. I relaxed after the routine. My whole body did. And it was a blast. ;-)

3. I won't be able to feel my body tomorrow.
