Relecting on Hot Yoga


I angered the workout gods yesterday by saying that I didn’t feel like I had worked out.

This morning all of my muscles were deeply sore.  However, in my post work-out euphoria yesterday I had reserved a spot for yoga today a mere 28 hours after my initial class. Once you commit to one of their classes online, you have to go or cancel 12 hours before the class, otherwise there are penalties or something… Of course, 12 hours before tonight would have been really early this morning and I was still asleep. I had not yet realized the full extent of the soreness.

So I hauled myself to class.
Class was busy tonight. I think that some people showed up without having reserved a class and they were not allowed to come in. Also, it was hotter this evening.  The heaters were cranked up and with all the bodies in the room it was toasty.  By the end of class I looked like I had taken a shower in my clothes.

Once again, I am in post-workout euphoria. I am again planning another trip. So, what I have realized is this particular type of yoga is very much like a drug. If you go awhile without doing it, you experience physical pain.  But, that pain goes away when you do it again.  Tricky Tricky TruHarmony.
