At the Uptowner, we are known to not move or go anywhere (sound familiar Audubon Park?) while we lift heavy rocks for our 45 min workout. After GORUCK Weekend, YHC wanted to slow things down today and get some long term training in (aka Yoga). Sure, you could workout out doing cardio or weightlifting, but the real magic is working on flexibility during yoga. So lets get to it:
DISCLAIMER
Started by walking over to a well lit area of grass (approx. 8 yards away)…how else are you going to see what YHC is doing. For those who know the P90X Yoga routine, this will look familiar:
3x Sun Salutations (a yoga progression shown below)
Then, we did the following positions while doing a sun salutation before each. We did right leg first, then left:
- Runner’s Pose (R/L)
- Crescent Pose (R/L)
- Warrior 1 (R/L)
- Warrior 2 (R/L)
- Reverse Warrior (R/L)
- Triangle Pose (R/L)
- Twisting Triangle (R/L)
- Chair to Chair Twist (R/L)
- Right-Angle Pose (R/L)
- Warrior 3 to Standing Splits (R/L)
Nature was calling for YHC, so I turned over the Q to Hawg. He finished with:
- Runner’s Stretch (R/L)
- Warrior 1, 2, 3 Progression (R/L)
Walked back to the flag, and held the COT. Good stuff, and thanks for letting me lead.
