Post Workout Update

Filed under: Uncategorized — Keith @ 9:47 pm

Ok, I am back from my second consecutive day of Bikram Yoga. The good news is, I didn’t have to leave the studio early this time. The bad news is I went into tonight’s workout feeling like I played in three consecutive rugby matches (and ended up at the bottom of the scrum a lot) ;) I was so sore from yesterday’s yoga class that I thought about skipping today. My shoulders are very, very, very sore. I have a strained knee that is slowly healing, and it is still sensitive enough that I can’t do all the movements correctly, but the instructor is completely forgiving of my spastic abilities with yoga (at least for now ;) ). I am also just generally sore all over – my lower back and shoulders are where I am feeling it the most right now though).

To top off the muscle soreness from yesterday’s workout. I am fighting off a cold right now. It really sucks (just a stunning revalation about colds, eh?). So my chest was getting very congested in the humid 41°C temperature of the room. I had to basically lie still for the last 10 minutes of the class to try and slow my heart rate and breathing down.

I also signed on for the 60 day Bikram Yoga challenge. I have already paid, and I must take my first class as of this Sunday (May 1st). The instructor has been kind enough to allow me to do a couple make-up classes (i.e. I do 2 classes in one day on a couple weekends) because I will be out of town on May 6, 7, & 8 (taking my mom to Minneapolis for Mother’s Day).

I’m also meeting a new friend in Minneapolis for the first time, and if this cold isn’t gone by then, I’m gonna lose it :)

Oh, post class news flash – I think I might have a fever, and I feel damn sick, and not only am I writing a run-on sentence, but my muscles are now even more sore than they were yesterday. I think I might just pop a couple Robax, a couple Nyquil, and crash for the night.
