Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Here's a small treat for you all.
Benji wasn't always 'quite' such a big dog.

You need to whizz through to about 4:35

Benji was particularly cute in day 2, gazing soulfully out the window. Day 2 I found boring, too many planks (I already do lots of planks and push-ups in classes), so I did fast forward a few minutes. I think I’m used to my usual yoga classes where we do lots of hip and shoulder stuff lying down. I like lying down yoga :)

Know what you mean re planks Fleecy - I think I noted that I was all planked out yesterday after an upper body and core session that also included them.Mind you I prob don't do enough abs stuff cos it's mainly A) boring and B) hard.

Haven’t done day 2 yet, I can’t balance on my toes so no planks for me. I have tried the half plank on my knees but so painful on the knees! Will have some padding available when I do it this afternoon!

Sorry if you've already explained Tomsmum, but is there a specific reason you can't do a plank from toes/midfoot?

Sorry to hear that Tomsmum; hope you can find a way to adapt the practice? I just did day 3. Not too strenuous today. I'm still on holiday - it's going to be harder next week when I go back to work to keep the commitment going!

I'm actually quite enjoying all the plank moves (though I don't do them in any other training session so am never in danger of 'over-planking'!) - I think because it's helping me make a controlled move down to the mat or into downward dog, rather than just flinging myself into position. As well as making me feel like I'm building strength.

About This Thread

Maintained by Sharkie
In January 2016 fraggle decided to follow Adriene (of Yoga with Adriene fame -only she wasn't 'quite' so famous back then). It was the start of Adriene's second 30 Days of Yoga and fraggle started a thread and asked anyone interested to join in. I did, I completed the 30 days and I got a PB fpr my 60 metres at the end of it so it was certainly not detrimental....

ANYWAY

Fancy joining in with this year's 30 day programme - 'Home'?

Here's the link to Adriene's site, the link for 'Home' is right at the top
