Yogurt...er, I mean yoga

I don't do yoga really often, although I wish I did it more.

I do stretch a lot though and have been for a few years now. I've added miles to my runs and my overall health is drastically improved.

I stretch for hours sometimes, although lately I haven't been as consistent as I would like.

Stretching has become my secret weapon. I don't even bother telling most people because if you tell someone they need to stretch for an hour, and regularly, and more often than they exercise, they immediately lose interest.

I'm a total badass though so they just assume my advice isn't applicable. It is, I'm weaker than most people that's what drives me to make myself better.


So yeah bro don't stop stretching.

 

I like yogurt.
I like yoga.
They help my surf.

Are we talking regular yogurt, or whale yogurt?

 

I do it nearly every day I don't surf and it's help my back/neck loads. Vinyasa flows are where it's at.

This guy does several "Yoga for surfers" videos cuz he surfs and skates. Pretty good workout too.

Bet that guy crushes puss. But for real, I mix yoga and static stretching. Usually do it before sessions for about 20 minutes if time permits but not gonna overdue it. I'm not really into the whole soul and finding yourself thing in yoga. I just like to surf

 

yogis saved my fire season and my surfing. four slipped disks, one torn MCL and multiple other injuries later yoga keep me in the water on the fire line regularly despite all this.

 

Yes - I'm 57 and have been doing yoga for 10 years, definitely helps with flexibility. Keeping shoulders, back and hips working helps keep me surfing. Don't forget that the breathing aspect is as important as the postures.

Been doing it for 5yrs. Great for flexibility. Started going to a class that I got talked into when I first started. Before I went I was embarrassed to do it. It was worse when I got there because I was the only dude. After about 10 min I realized that it was the best thing I ever did, not for the fitness but because I was the only dude. Seriously your chances of getting a fine piece of a go up 10 fold when you are the only dude in a class with 20-30 hotties.

 

Oh and the other bonus is yoga pants. All of the talent wears yoga pants...

 

God bless her
