I am a serious, competitive marathon runner whose body is breaking down with age.
12/24. Flying pigeon - hahahahahaha. Nope. Good practice. 1/28.
Hard! Crow, bridge, headstand. 8/21 (2nd time - perhaps a bit stronger).
4/20, 4/21, 4/23 (getting stronger, more flexible, more balanced)
4/24 (not as strong), 4/25 (much more flexible), 4/27 (still hard - need balance; no post-run yoga yesterday = tighter hamstring today), 4/28, 4/29, 5/1, 5/2 (hamstrings sore and tight, no balance - didn’t do yoga last night), 5/4 - still no one-legged balance.; 5/7 better; 5/8 more flexible (after painful night and no running yesterday); 5/10; 5/12/ 5/13 better with released nerve, but still no one-legged balance. , 5/17, 5/22, 6/3, 7/13/ 7,22
5/9 good stretches and strength
Slow, deep, head balance pose, good stretches.
5/2 good challenge. I liked this. 5/13 briefly did wheel (3 times)! 5/15 longer, higher wheel! 6/8 strong.
5/11: good morning option - quick, good stretches; 5/12 (after Rise and Shine), 5/13, 5/16 so helpful for easing pain. 5/19. Getting stronger on crow pose. 6/4. 7/29. 8/27
All of the good strength poses. 5/19. 5/25: getting stronger. 5/26, 5/27.5/29 - not so well done (balance or strength). 6/30, 7/1. 7/17 - obivous I haven't done much yoga lately. :( 7/20 - better. 7/25 - arms lightly touched behind my back on both sides! 8/31 - it's clear that my hamstrings are improving. Much less pain, though work to do on flexibility. 12/25.
Split second of the strength pose on one side. I think I might someday be able to do it. 6/10. 7/2 a but stronger - brief achievement of that strength pose. 7/27 - no ability on strength pose. Didn't love it today.
This has crow pose.
5/6: like the title says. Relaxing. Good stretches. 5/14: not very challenging. Meditative. 6/5.
Starts around 6, ends at 52.
6/10 - fast, balance and strength and stretch. Good! 6/22. 7/31 such a great practice. 8/16 - tough with tenotomies, but still a great practice. 8/22 - hamstrings seems to be loosening!
Really nice practice - balance, good stretches. 5/20. 5/21 strong tree pose balance. 5/29. 6/21. 7/18 - such good stretches. Really helpful. 8/17. 9/19: boring.
5/11. Hard, good! strength and stretches. 8/2. Good core work. Tough with nerve entrapment and knee issues, but valuable. Begins around minute 5.
7/23 - hard. No lift on side crow poses. 11/1 - made me sweaty!
7/30 Good flow, not boring despite length. Almost did a headstand!
This was hard, in large part because the nerve hurt very much. 8/1
Got to minute 45. Boring, but also difficult from tenotomy. 8/13.
