Hi - thanks everyone....you helped me feel a bit more "real"...so to speak..."not so frustrated/challenged" in this journey!
What brought this all on is that I had discovered that I WAS going thru the motions and using improper posture AND form....with a bad injury for many years!!! and now I am trying to correct all of this!! And my goodness the difference is amazing....thanks all....and I'm finding it really gets you in shape....I wondered why I never got results back then...LOL! Between that and the D word! Yes, and this is an entire new discovery of my old DVD's also...which instructor's give the best form pointers. I love Eion Finn's yoga pointers.....he always says the right thing. I'll have to try my Ana Forrest. I know I have a Rachel Brice Bellydance that has a yoga segment in it and I do it often as her BREATHING is spot on....and it REALLY helps my anxiety and my chest breathing problem. Also, helps me work on the in-breath and out breath with the movement which I never really focused on before until now either...(.it's hard for someone with asthma to do the in-out breath....especially with Pilates/Kundalini breath-work because your out-breath is longer than your in-breath ...they are not of even lengths.....if anyone else can hear me on this annoyance.....say yes!! LOL) |

Yes - form is everything! Even my "easier" workouts like Leslie Sansone are made significantly more challenging when I really take the time to focus on my form throughout the workout.
It's easy enough to just go through the motions, but taking the time to keep my shoulders down and back and my core engaged the WHOLE time is a different ball game. |
