I finally started, after months of procrastinating, last Monday and I ♥ it!! I had a question for anyone else that does it. Do you do the stretch classes? Today I did the core 20 class and then attempted to do the stretch 40, but after 10 mins I was sooo bored and wasn't feeling much of the "stretching" that I shut it off and finished doing a little stretch on my own.

I just cant get into the whole "yoga"type stretch thing. I took 1 yoga class at the gym months ago & the entire time I was looking at the clock bc I found it to be extremely lame and boring and a waste of time.

Does anyone else ever get this way about yoga? & If you do do turbofire, do you ever skip over the stretching?

Thanks ;)

    LOL! I hate yoga! I am doing a P90X/Turbofire hybrid right now. P90X has a 90 minute yoga DVD which I absolutely hated...so the 40 minute TF one is actually more tolerable for me. I have to say it is improving my flexibility. I usually do a HIIT workout in the am and the yoga when I get home from work.

    I never do Stretch 40 either, it's too long and boring. I barely even do 10 but I know I should do it more, I need to work on my flexibility.

    I'm doing a Chalean Extreme (wk 6) and Turbofire (just starting my 2nd week) hybrid.

    Love both of the programs. I don't do the stretch videos, I am fairly flexible and find the stretching w/ each workout is enough.

    I'm starting this hybrid this week also and I'm subbing the P90X Yoga with TF Stretch 40. As much as I use to complain about the Stretch 40, I will do that anyday over P90X version........the hour and a half was killing me. I still don't really like either but I will choose the one with the less time. With all of that being said, it does help with my flexibilty but it bores me to death.

    Stretching will reduce soreness and stiffness, and also helps with flexibility. That Stretch 40 is a bear, no doubt, but for me skipping it would be like someone weak in the arms skipping the bicep curls. It's only going to help in the long run.

    My wife is a Turbo girl, and she often skips the stretches other than Stretch 10. For those complaining about the P90X Yoga, I would suggest possibly looking into the Fountain of Youth yoga in the one-on-one series. It's only about 45 minutes and a GREAT workout / stretch / ab routine. Plus, it's only 45 minutes LOL!!! Really some yoga is better than none at all, and it is SO important. Tony Horton has even said if he could only do 1 workout, it would be Yoga. Hope this helps! :)
