Hard and Hot! I was really, really tired. But it struck me as something that would be very worthwhile if taken seriously.

I've had chronic back pain and a real problem with one of my ankles. My flexibility has also been decreasing over time. After just a few weeks of coming, the aches and pains were greatly diminished and my flexibility has really improved. My aerobic fitness has also improved.

.

Balancing stick. It gives me an indication of where I am with respect to balance and aerobic fitness. I'm not very good at it, but I have improved.

Enduring the heat and getting past the awkward pose. I find awkward excruciating at times.

Do not overdo it. I had to take several weeks off after overdoing a couple of the poses, causing my sciatica to flare up.

It's never too late to start. I certainly would have been better at this at a younger age, but I am getting plenty of benefit now and hope to improve over time.
