Is 'weight loss yoga' different?

Adriam88

Hey I'm new here & just wondering if anyone else was doing weight loss yoga? I started doing 60 minutes every day with 'Yoga Zone' videos & I feel SO much better already! I'm sleeping better, less stressed & I think it's even helping me feel less fidgety with my ADHD :-)

I do wonder though why it's not listed in the exercise database? I know just 'yoga' and also 'stretching yoga' are there but nothing specifically for weight loss yoga... because of this I'm not sure if it's counting the calories I'm burning accurately. Does anyone know if there is actually a difference? Or is weight loss yoga the same as just 'yoga'? Sorry if that's a dumb question but like I said I'm new at this.

Thanks, Adria :-)

I've never done yoga zone, so I don't know. Most yoga does not burn that many calories, no matter how difficult it feels at the time.

Some people add their own numbers. I just use what mfp has - that way when I do a very difficult sequence it makes up for the easier sequences.

Ok, that makes sense, thanks for the input! :-)
