Cross Training - Yoga at Spectrum Club

Time: 1:30pm, 1 hour
Meal: 1/2 chicken salad at 12:30pm

There were quite a few parts of this practice that were definitely a challenge, primarily because my legs are so exhausted by Thursday. Overall, I thing this is a good cross-training exercise, as I am using this time to work on my focus, breathe into some deep stretches, and to build strength in areas where I may be imbalanced (upper body and portions of my legs).

I tried to hold the standing splits but just couldn't do it, and I couldn't hold warrior one very long because my arms were getting uncomfortable above my head (I have that problem a lot). I found that I got extremely thirsty during practice and was sweating quite a bit.
