200 minutes

133.0 this morning. Pleasant weigh-in! How long has it been since that happened?

You probably know that conventional wisdom dictates 200 minutes of cardio per week for weight loss and overall fitness. I've been looking at my September rotation and considering doing a kickbox and yoga rotation for the month. I'm going to call it the Jackie Chan rotation. The plan is to do three 50 minute kickbox sessions, one 50-60 minute power yoga or weight lifting, and on remaining days kundalini yoga. I'm so eager to get started on this that I might ditch my current August rotation and start doing it right away. Don't know yet.

My August rotation has undergone continuous revision and substitutions. I will post what I ended up doing this month and you can compare it to what I had originally planned, if you're interested in that sort of thing.

We had a great time in London over the weekend. On Friday, we visited a shop called Yogamatters and I bought two new Ana & Ravi DVDs (thus my eagerness to do more kundalini workouts!) And then we used a great little book called 'Eccentric London' and went for a long walk around Kensington. On Saturday, we went to our friend Julie's wedding. Sunday we went around Covent Garden with our friend Mike who was visiting from America, then to the Star Wars exhibit at County Hall on the South Bank. Doesn't sound too strenuous, but I was knackered by the time we got home on Sunday night!

Geez

When you say ...200 MINUTES it seems overwhelming.  Or at least that was my first reaction when I read it.  But then, I realize that broken down over a week is not long at all. 

That is good info as I had not really thought about it in that way.  Sounds like you had a great time in London.

It goes without saying that you are doing fantastic on your weight.  I will be able to say that someday.   Blessings to you,Chargail 

Videos

How do you manage to do the yoga videos.  I have a few but I usually end up watching them rather actually doing it.  Quite frustrating.  I think i need to find a cheap yoga studio.

Private Lessons

When I was living in Kazakhstan I found a wonderful yoga teacher that gave me lessons for 5 dollars...The best class I ever took.

I am not into the group classes but it's really expensive and I am not flexible at all and need help being 'pushed' and I was wondering how you did with the yoga videos.  I just don't feel good after doing them...
