Oh how I hate thee YOGA!!

I am trying to love Yoga, I really am. I struggled with accepting Yoga during P90x but I thought that with the shorter version of Yoga in X2 that I would be able to learn to love it... so far it is not the case! I hate spending a whole hour of my time to burn a mere 179 calories... cleaning the house would have burned more!!! I want to do it... I know Tony says that I should but Gosh Darn IT, do I have too... really?!!??

Anyway, enough whining... I am going to try to keep with it throughout the program but so far I just don't like Yoga. I guess it is kind of like learning to run... I wanted to feel that "runner's high" but at first I just felt like puking or turning around and going home. I persevered with running and I am going to try and do the same with Yoga so that I can find the flexibility and balance benefits from it. But I still don't like it!! At least it is only once a week.

So my friend Laura, who is doing P90X2 right now too, (head over to her blog here and check her out... she is AMAZING!) is doing a weekly Yoga pose entry on her blog so I thought that we could do the same here. I would post a weekly pic on my blog of my MOM (who is 54 BTW) and I doing a favorite pose of the week. I will post them on Fridays... starting today!! YIKES Do not judge me for having gained so much weight... I am working at taking it off ;)

Make it a great day folks... one more day to go and I have been through all of the workouts at least once. I can't wait for the 16th and I am going to try to do the workouts in a hotel room next week -.- that should be fun!

OK, and before I share the pics I want to add a disclosure statement (or three)...

1- I am the photographer in the family and I know what angles to take pics at... not my Mom (Mom took my pic and I took hers)
2- At the age of 54 my Mom COULD be on the cover of downward dog magazine ;) She is hot!!
3- I am sporting some 4:45am hair... looks terrible but I don't care at that hour... sorry!!

Once again... have a great day!
