Bikram "Hot" Yoga

Hi....has anyone out there that has been banded tried "Hot" yoga for exercise? I am still overweight (only been banded 2 months) and was wondering if being overweight makes it difficult to hold yoga poses.

Thanks!

    I haven't but a bandster from some time ago. Idr if she was on LBT or B2G (since I was on both back then) but here is the link for her journey and it links to her Bikram journey. She has since stopped blogging about weight loss and has become a Bikram teacher. Enjoy, I did.

    I haven't personally tried Bikram Yoga, but I started doing beginners Yoga about a month ago. Yoga is about strength, balance, flexibility and it is not a competition. You should only go as far as you can. As your weight goes down and your muscles adapt you will be able to go further and hold the positions longer.

    I am really enjoying my Yoga class and I'm even looking at attending an extra one during the week.

    Good Luck! :thumbup:
