Yoga-ish!

Yup, I maxed out my Tuesday night class, GO T.!

Just like that, it only holds 20 and I had 21 in class it totally rocked!

New Bikram Hot Yoga Midwest!

Image: www.Freedigitalphotos.net

Recently opened is the new Bikram Hot Yoga Midwest, and I can't wait to try it! I have never done the "real" 26 pose sequence that Bikram is known for but I love hot Yoga!

Well all Yoga actually, that is why I teach it but I would love to check this place out.
Open on Sunday yay! Since I usually teach on Saturdays it is really hard for me to do both but I could do the late Saturday or the Sunday.

The St. Louis Schedule for Bikram Hot Yoga is:• Monday, Wednesday, Friday – 10 am, 4 pm, and 6 pm
• Tuesday and Thursday – 6:30 am, 4 pm, and 6 pm
• Saturday – 10 am and 2 pm
• Sunday 12 pm and 4 pm

Pricing is basically the same as most places, but they do offer a first time one month for $39 bucks so you can't go wrong with that. Also they use Mindbody software so its easy to sign up on line.

New 100 Cal Product & Yogurt Idea (Pic Blog)

On my way to Hot Yoga, it was fun. I have on no make up, and headband for sweat.

I got to be the demo girl, so I liked that but I did feel as if this was a bit too "intro" for my liking and my 3 girls I brought. The first 30 minutes was more about talking about Yoga, however not really telling the benefits, or showing or doing. We did learn breathe methods, then correct form and Vinyasa A and B.

It was a big crowd and we received a coupon for a free class so we will be going back to another session, regular Hot Yoga. Thanks ZFit Studio, we love you!

I love hot anything so just sitting in the heat was so good for me.

Here are how my flowers have opened.........



They started like this........


I created a new breakfast:
Greek yogurt 1/2 cup
Pine nuts - 2 tbs
Raisins = 10

YUM! I like the crunch and sweetness of the raisins. I did at 1 packet of Stivia.

Nutrition:
Cals = 277
Carbs = 16
Fat = 12 (good fats from nuts)
Protein = 26 g


I also bought a new product to review........CHOCOLATE need I say more?

You get about 10 and they are very satisfying. I will be doing a review article on this product, again only 100 cals if you only eat ONE.

Workouts:
Saturday - Hot Yoga = 286 cals burned
Sunday - 10-20 min stair climbing doing taxes = 49 cals burned

I am still super sore, but a run at lunch will do me good.

P90X2 Recipe Fish Tacos

I made this recipe last night and I give it a rating = 9

For me I guess it was so clean I only had one but added some chips all natural and salsa from Harry and Davids, yum.

This was only about 30 minute from start to finish.....that I loved.

Cals = 220 Fat = 4 Protein = 28g (not counting chips and salsa)

I have posted the rest of the moves and will be starting the full program next month. For now I am finishing my Yoga workouts and am going to my first HOT Yoga session Saturday!
100 degrees, and 26 poses, I am so in....say bye bye to toxins!

Have a super weekend, tax time for T.

...........and checking out a new gym = Xist Fitness.
