So I have been thinking of starting yoga for about a year now but I just haven't been ready to start a commitment to it. There is a very nice yoga studio only 5 minutes away from my house. It seems very out of place seeing at it is very nice and it is surrounded by a run down area. The price is good and the hours and class selection is great. I don't think I can pass this up. I think I'll check into it tommarow.

Nice squat PR. Was that ATG or parallel?

Left shoulder felt a little raw for a moment today, but it felt fine other than that.

Today's workout -

bench press PL style - RI 2 1/2 minutes
set #1 - 8 reps at 45 lbs (warm up)
set #2 - 8 reps at 115 lbs (warm up)
set #3 - 3 reps at 195 lbs
set #4 - 3 reps at 195 lbs
set #5 - 3 reps at 195 lbs

incline db - RI 2 minutes
set #1 - 6 reps at x2 70 lbs
set #2 - 6 reps at x2 70 lbs
set #3 - 6 reps at x2 70 lbs

weighted chins (neutral)- RI 2 minutes
set #1 - 5 reps +20 lbs
set #2 - 5 reps +20 lbs PR
set #3 - 5 reps +15 lbs

DB rows - RI 90 seconds
set #1 - 5 reps at x2 90 lbs
set #2 - 5 reps at x2 90 lbs

standing db curls
set #1 - 8 reps each at x2 40 lbs

elbows and tendons in the elbow/forearm were bothering me too much to continue.

Agh, alright workout. My shoulders were bothering me by the end and my tendonitis was becoming increasingly worse while working out. I'm gonna just get rid of all tennis, maybe I'll just play once a week. Weight training is more important to me at the moment. When I got home I washed my hands quickly, downed some food & ibuprofin, and took a very cold shower. I'm currently icing the shit out of my self. I'm starting Yoga this evening, I'm a bit nervous though. It was either Yoga or jui jitsu. With the current state of my joints I think the BJJ would be detrimental while Yoga would help recovery.

lawl no PR for fufu, my streak is over!

EDIT: lawl, I just caught one, I wasn't sure, I had to go searching through my old logs. 1337!

Sucks to hear that. Pretty strange for a young guy like yourself to be having all sorts of pain. I've been fortunate enough to not experience any pain or discomfort yet. I guess the warmups and dynamic flexibility work is helping me a lot.

Other than what Trouble told you in the other forum, i think you may be experiencing joint pain is because you are always doing heavy weight for low reps. I don't think i've seen you use moderate weight with moderate to high reps (6-12). It's important to back off every 3-4 weeks of heavy work and rest or drop the intensity.

BJJ def would not be detrimental. BJJ requires ALOT of flexibility and we do lots and lots of stretching. It has made me much much more flexible, especially in my lower body. My instructor also takes yoga. He is crazy flexible. He puts his head on the mat, with his hands behind his back and standing up with his 2 legs, and does neck rolls, hes a fucking nut.

BJJ is the reason my lower back is 100% better. I'd definately take BJJ if in your position, and if yoga is so cheap do that too.

Hmmm, well then is def. a possibility. I'd probably knock training down to 3 days a week with yoga and BJJ.

Well I completed my first Yoga class. It was just about what I expected. For the most part is was mildly challenging. There was one moment where I just wanted to fall over though, it had me sweating alot. The toughest parts were the plank variations, but I stuck through them. 80% of the class is made up of attractive females. I thought there were no hot girls where I live, apparently there are some, and they all take Yoga!

I figure I'll do Yoga 2-3 times a week. lawl, at the end of class the teach was like, "We will complete this with an "ohm". Then everyone was like "oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooohmmmmmmmmmm mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm". I wanted to start laughing. It was weird, creepy, and funny all at the same time. Maybe next time I'll join in the ohm-ing.

Keep us posted on how you like the yoga classes. I was thinking about giving some a try. I have a client who does pilates and her body awareness and stability are amazing.

Hope you like Yoga. My wife and I tried a University (well taught at the U) class, we went to all of them but they were fairly basic and just setting you up for the next stage. When school starts again I'm going to start up again in the morning. It gives such a nice stretch and really gets me focused for the day. Best of Luck to ya and good on ya.

lawl, that is sweet. Maybe I'll join in an ohm at some point, probably not though. It is a very large room with good acoustics, the ohm-ing gets really loud and powerful.

For sure. I really liked it. It almost started dripping sweat at some points. They can pull off some crazy plank variations. I think it will be a valuable supplement to my weight training routine.

I'm liking it so far, thanks! I'm starting out with Hatha Yoga, which is slow paced, which I can be a little difficult because that involves holding certain poses for a long time. I'll be working my way up to more difficult styles.
