To Yoga or Not To Yoga

I truly LOVE doing Yoga, and I like to do it everyday. Is there a downside to the idea of doing an hour to an hour and a half of yoga every evening before bed? Will it cause me to hit a wall in my training/toning?

    Nope. It may keep you awake though.

    I do yoga after work because I've found it really tones my abs. It also helps me sleep. This is in addition to my morning cardio workout.

    I don't feel like there would be a downside at all.

    When I did Bikram Yoga, they actually advocated doing it daily. I would have loved to, but it was so expensive!

    do it! unless you're doing it incorrectly and get hurt, there is no downside.
