P.M. Yoga take 1
Who: Radagast and SO
Exercise type: P.M. Yoga with Patricia Walden
Portions of tape: entire tape
Duration: ~25 minutes
Notes: This tape was similar to A.M. Yoga with Rodney Yee, though this tape focused more on standing poses and stretching, while A.M. Yoga focuses more on limbering up. The cuing in this tape was not perfect, as we got lost multiple times. It probably didn't help that many of the poses prevented us from seeing the TV, and that Patricia assumed a much greater level of flexibility than we currently have. Modifications for the less flexible were typically not included, and the poses were changed relatively frequently, both of which were mildly frustrating. However, with practice this seems like it should be a good, stretching-based workout. Having already done Yoga for Beginners helped us do this tape.
Radagast's SO liked the hamstring stretches, primarily because the tape guided us into them much better than most other instructors have to date.
Soreness report: We're still sore from our last Yoga for Strength workout.
