One great thing about going to a studio for a yoga class is that there are so many great props you can use, like straps, bolsters, blankets, chairs, and blocks. I've seen and used just about every kind of yoga prop out there and love that they help assist me in correct alignment, or help me to get a deeper stretch. Then Gaiam sent me this unique All-Grip Yoga Brick (price reduced to $12) and I thought, "Now that's something I've never seen before."

Well as far as my workout plan, it has definitely changed since my MCL tear, patellafemoral tendinitis, and IT band strain. I used to run everyday but now I am on "rest" so I have to swim in it's place. So here is my modified schedule of workouts:
Monday: 5:30AM-6:30AM -- Body Pump (with modified squats and stretching through lunges due to my knee).

Here's the last of the three variations of the forward bend Janu Sirsasana. All three of these poses increase flexibility in your hamstrings, but this variation will also stretch out the muscles in your feet. Some instructors also believe this pose will massage your inner organs, which keeps them healthy, but I'm not sure I buy that one.

MEXICO CITY – Capital residents ate lunch on sidewalks, in parks or at the office Tuesday as the government prohibited restaurants from letting people eat inside in a further attempt to contain the flu virus claiming new lives every day.
"It's strange," said Iván Ramírez, who was carrying his fast-food meal from the touristy Zona Rosa to his office. Restaurants could still offer food to go.

The time most suitable for Yoga is in the morning before breakfast when the mind is calm and fresh and the movements can be done with ease and vitality.
The most important things you'll need to get started - as they say - are a big heart and a small ego.
A person must seek a place of quietude, which is well ventilated, free from dust, insects, unpleasant smell, draught, and moisture.

Project codename wackdoodle - I think I'm the newest and squishiest Transformer.
However, I maybe the smartest Transformer cause I successfully got out of my expensive gym membership without paying any penalties. Go wack, it's your birthday (thank goodness it isn't - don't need to be 37 yet)!

Sumo wrestlers were the main inspiration behind Wii Fit, Nintendo's latest attempt at getting you off the couch when you play video games.
Because they are so huge, sumo wrestlers need two scales to weigh themselves. Wii Fit's balance board works kind of like two scales fused together, which, as its designers found, makes it instantly more fun than just one.
