Ok, I have a HUGE question...(like 365 lbs big).... Can an older, overweight guy start doing this too? Are there beginning exercises to break into that I won't break bones with impact? I'm tired of being tired. I'm tired of NOT being fit---like I used to 10 years ago... ...and this fascinates me to no end!!!
How old are you, Jaime ? consider.. you look like a relatively young man who could well have another 40 years plus ahead of him. If you sincerely wish to become fitter the goal is WELL within your reach if you find other folk of a like mind. Train [ at whatever you feel is useful and fun,] be VERY patient with injuries because they are as surely a part of training as training itself. Congratulate yourself on even the smallest improvements - the very fact that you've sent this enquiry out to the world is your first step. So... congratulations, Jaime. Preliminary yoga classes , however unsuited you may initially feel to the exercises [ like most of us ! ] will prepare your body for later harder exertion. I wish you well, mate. Keep in touch and tell me how you're doing.
I'm delighted to hear that you've chosen the yoga path,Jaime - if I may , I'll also refer you to the inspiring writings and works of my very good friend, Geoff Thompson - Ex - doorman , best selling author , BAFTA award winning playright, mentor, described by 'black Belt Magazine as 'The most influential martial artist since Bruce Lee' - and a thoroughly good guy : he'll be chuckling at me and my pragmatic nature when I tell him of our meeting and the synchronicity of my humble suggestion and your coinciding decision to do yoga . Yo !
much respect =)
You will be inspiration to your kids
