Bikram Yoga

Good morning all,

I started doing Bikram (hot) yoga in March of this year and fell in love with it. I was wondering if anyone else practices it, particularly post-op and what your results have been.

Most people say that yoga isn't good for an aerobic work out, but I've found that my heart rate gets going with this form of yoga and I've burned quite a few calories sticking with it.

My surgery is tomorrow morning :rolleyes: and I know I'll have to wait a couple months before returning to my yoga practice, just wanted to know what anyone else has experienced with this particular type of yoga post-op?

Thanks,

Nat

Bikram Yoga has more aerobic benefits than most forms of yoga.

You might enjoy Jenn's blogs. She has a band and became a Bikram Yoga instructor after her surgery.
