My knee is better today, but still a bit sore, so I definitely wanted to avoid strain on it. No Revolved Triangles, no Warriors.
I flipped through some yoga workouts and found one of my favorites, "Lord of the Fishes." Part of the reason I love it is because it's an advanced workout and I have virtually no problems with it. ("Virtually," because it's a shoulder workout and that right shoulder can get tweaked so easily.) I also love it because when I showed Husband the "hard" pose, he made some comment regarding the unnaturalness of it all. It also features one of the very first yoga poses I started doing when I was a wee child, and it's still one of my absolute favorites.
Well, that's really it for today. I think I used all my words in yesterday's post. :) Tomorrow, Walk 5, Run 10, Walk 5, assuming my knee holds out!
Not enough people blog about lord of the fishes pose! It’s my favorite twist. I found Leeann Carey has a free yoga video that shows adjustments in this pose. I thought your readers might want to check it out: http://planetyoga.com/yoga-blogs/index.php/free-yoga-video-lord-of-fishes-pose/
ReplyDeleteThanks!! I always have to pay attention in that twist - it never quite feels like I'm straight enough. I could definitely use someone straightening my ribs when I do it some days!!
