Hot yoga?

I am intrigued. Anyone do it before? Reactions? I'm thinking of trying the one in tbc bc they have a first timer special 25 bucks for 15 consecutive days. Anyone go to that one before? Results? Tia!

i've done it many times. I love it, but i know lots of people that hated it. I think it's great if you can stand it, the first time I went i lost 6 lbs! Mostly water weight.. you sweat A LOT!!

I say give it a try :)

HTH

I have done it before. I love the way I feel after! I didn't like the fact that I couldn't leave the room, but that may be just with that studio. It is very hot. You will sweat in places that you thought would never sweat! Lol!

I tried it once. I loved how great I felt the day after but felt HORRIBLE during and after the hot yoga class. It was so hot the heat got to me that I could move anymore...I had to just lay on my mat without moving till the class was over cause the instructor we had doesn't let people leave the room.

It never hurts to try it out for yourself!

i've just finished my third month and i'm starting my 4th month. i love it! it makes me feel great after class and i think it has helped me tone me in areas that i haven't been able to tone in a while. it has also greatly improved my flexibility which i love! you should totally go for it!!!

I LOVE hot yoga! but more for the relaxation and stretching than the weight loss. If you do it often, it really does help you tone (as any yoga class will do) but the weight you'll lose after class is just water weight.

Be sure to stay REALLY hydrated the day before, day of and day after your class It helps prevent you from feeling sick and gross -- which might turn you off to hot yoga

I love it! I don't wind up going as often as I should, but when I go regularly I feel GREAT! As long as I re hydrate! You might feel really crappy the first few times you go. Just stick with it and it gets easier. Some days you might just need to hang out on the mat for a few postures. You shouldn't leave the room because you want your body to get used to the temp, not cool it down in the middle of the class. It does help you lose weight. It's great for your heart. Your heart rate goes way up and you bring it down after each pose. I found that the morning weekday classes are less crowded and therefore less hot than the evenings and weekends! Start going now before it gets really hot out. It will be easier to adapt to the heat now.
