    Well, technically the SUBJECT of her question had to do with steam rooms, but did I not accurately borrow the FORMAT of her question?

    Did I neglect to respond to your question? Doesn’t it depend on who's doing the massage?

    Wasn’t I surprised at @nossmf ’s question since I’d way prefer massage by a person over the chair? 😂

    How effective could a chair be as a masseuse?

    Having had several massages and several chair massages, don't I think the chair massage is cheap and convenient but impersonal and less effective, when compared to a normal massage?

    @nossmf, doesn't it look like, in our small circle here, you may indeed be "the only person who prefers massage-chair sessions at a mall over a full-body session at a spa table?"

    Are we talking a chair that massages you or sitting in a chair as a person massages you?

    You mean are we talking about chair massages or massage chairs?

    Didn't the qualifier "at the mall" lead me to understand he meant massage chairs?
  • frankwbrown
    frankwbrown Posts: 13,583 Member
    Wasn't I only thinking of a massage at the mall, not whether it be in a chair or on a table? But in either case with a person--versus a mechanized chair--giving the massage?

    Did anyone else get their butt kicked at yoga tonight?

    Not me, but doesn't it feel better now? 😂
    (Should we assume your yoga was of the ashtanga/vinyasa/hot yoga style, as opposed to hatha yoga?) 🤔
    But I got my butt kicked at Pilates this morning, didn't I?
    And I may or may not get it kicked again tomorrow morning at yoga, but who knows? 🧘‍♂️

    I used to really wonder: Why do people say yoga is hard, when the version I learned put me to sleep? After doing hot yoga and sweating more than ever before, do you think I wonder that anymore? :noway:

    Do you notice any difference in the people who prefer pilates over yoga?

    Aren't they better at spelling?

    ETA: As in, since pilates is more difficult to spell than yoga, doesn't a practitioner face a bigger mental hurdle simply spelling their art in the first place?

    If you eat your lunch food at 11am, does the time between end of lunch until noon count as morning or afternoon?

    If you eat your lunch at 11am, what time do you eat dinner?

    Wasn’t a chair made for a foreword facing seated position to allow a person to facilitate a massage shown at a mall in an episode of The Impractical Jokers?

    Have you tried yoga with my instructor? Didn't I do many poses yesterday with my fingers clasped behind and raised off my back? Weren't my triceps (a good) sore when I was done?

    But did you kick your butt? 🤔

    Did you know in high school track and field we did a warmup exercise where we hopped from foot to foot, with the in-air foot flexed as high/back as possible to literally try to kick our own butts?

    While we normally eat around 7, is it not uncommon, thanks to school/work activities, for us to eat as late as 9? I typically eat around 12, but today's workout burned extra calories, so do you blame me for not being able to resist eating a little early?
  • Cat0703a

    Why would we blame you?? Will you be able to wait until 9?

    Don't I see many of the same people at both my Pilates class and my yoga class?
    Should I conduct a survey and find out which they prefer and why?

    Isn't Pilates normally capitalized, because it was created by a man whose last name was Pilates? (But really, is that any reason why the name of this "mind/body exercise" should also be capitalized?)
    Shall I share a little trivia regarding Pilates? Didn't Joseph Pilates create it and give it the name "Contrology"? For some strange reason, it seems 🤔, didn't practitioners prefer to just call it Pilates? 😂

    Since yoga is supposedly 3,000 years old, isn't the buttkicking part nothing new?
    Isn't yoga but just one of the many forms of buttkicking exercises?

    While many people enjoy having their butts kicked at exercise, aren’t I more likely to do it if I don’t feel like going to die afterwards? 🤣

    Would you be surprised to find out I feel the same way?

    How obvious was it that I hadn’t had coffee yet in my last post? 🤦🏼‍♀️🤣
