You Asked: What Should I Expect From My First Bikram Yoga Class?
Hey Fit,
I'm going to try out Bikram yoga for the first time next week, and I'm a little unclear on what to expect (and a little nervous). I know it's going to be hot, so I'm wondering if you have any tips or things that I should (and shouldn't) do that day so that I get through the class feeling good instead of feeling like I might pass out halfway through — foods to stay away from, should I hydrate more than usual, etc.?
Thanks!
