New DVD search... yoga? ?

Denziee

Some mornings I want to get out of bed and workout but am not feeling a cardio or bounce about the living room workout. Its too dark in the mornings for me to run at the moment.

This morning I would have got out of bed for a stretch! I am really after a good (beginners) yoga dvd, something thats going to work me hard but is good on a friday to work the aches and pains of the workout week away.

I want something Stretchy!!!! Can anyone help!?!

This is my current collection....
Davina (McCall - Uk TV presenter for all the worldwide crew that have no idea how annoying she is!!) - all her DVDs
Nell McAndrew Ultimate Fitness
Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred
10 minute solutions knockout body workout
10 minute solutions 5 day fat burn (or something like that)
Charlie Brooks (British actress - naff DVD)
Hotpants (on VHS
Geri Body Yoga (Geri Halliwell... quite good but not broken into sections so I either have to do the whole 50 minutes or dip out half way through and I HATE THAT!)

HELP PLEASE?! xxxxx

I have Jillian Michaels yoga meltdown and love it. It is stretchy for me, but its also a workout. It's only about a half hour and its effective, much like her other stuff, but with a bit more stretches and yoga stuff. Anyway, it might be something to look into if you like her other stuff.

I recently got the Biggest Loser Weight Loss Yoga and I really like it. It has a 20 minute segment, a 15 minute segment, and a 10 minute strength segment plus a warm-up and cool down. Bob does the whole DVD and makes it easy to follow along. I'm with you - usually by Friday I want to do something but not the crazy jumping around of the rest of the week. Good luck finding one you really like.

I also have BL weightloss yoga. I know that some people have commented that it is not really "authentic" yoga, but I like it a lot. It is a change of pace, and I still feel like I am accomplishing something.

My husband and I got the YRG DVD about a year ago and I really like it. YRG means Yoga for Regular Guys, and was created by Diamond Dallas Page (the former wrestler.) I like it because his modifications on the yoga poses make it easier for a chubby girl like me to contort myself like I am supposed to without falling on my face, yet it is one heck of a cardio workout.

When I first started doing the DVD, I was really inflexible. Now I can touch my toes with straight knees and I happen to be very proud of that I think his DVD really made it so that I could finally enjoy a super low impact cardio workout using my own body as resistance.

I normally go between Wii Fit and YRG to maintain my flexibility. I just went to the YRG website and it looks like they've updated their page to have a variety of DVDs, but the one I have is called something like the YRG Fatburner Workout and from warm up to cool down it is about 45 minutes.

Good luck with your search!
