I'm feeling HOT HOT HOT

I have recently became an addict. I have became SO addicted that two days without it, I feel like a fat lazy slob. My addiction is Bikram Yoga aka Hot Yoga. I was always the person completely against yoga. My ideal exercise is pushing my body to its extremes, sweating to tunes on my Ipod, and listening to someone yell,"One more set!" I always felt that yoga = boredom. UNTIL, I went to my first Hot yoga class. I researched online before actually testing it out, interesting enough burning 900 calories in a 90 min. class is enough for me to give a whirl. I mean, all you would be doing is stretching in an oven, right? Hardly so! Bikram yoga test your strength, stamina, balance, and flexibility ALL at the same time. Not only making it difficult but also extremely challenging. As an avid gym-goer Bikram yoga worked my body in ways a gym simply could not. It worked my body from the inside out. My suggestion? Give it a try, and try it more than once. Each time is easier, however each time is still challenging. It is a great way to spice up any exercise routine, and get out of a rut. I promise, you will be pleased!
