Was thinking on starting up yoga / pilates Anyway ,so that, and the fruit/ veggie one, and finding some new things to try food wise, and lowering sodium. What besides bridges to add to strength training Jackie?0

Yoga sounds good for me too this week - challenging, but not too strenuous. Plus I'll probably keep up with fruits & veg and water.0

It takes a practice, it's relaxing when you get the poses down. And if you do it with people around try not to be too self conscious, I Know some of the poses probably seem awkward.

I did an x-box yoga workout, so only my kids to laugh at me. I think the biggest problem is I'm not all that flexible yet, so that will obviously come with practice. The other part is not knowing if I am in the right position, and the Kinect sensor is not reading properly, or if I am off a bit in the pose.
