Yesterday went by so fast! I skipped the second set of triangle (again), but I made it through the rest of class relatively unscathed. However, my legs were HURTING. The muscles on the back of my thighs are so sore! They hurt even worse today. Walking up the escalator at Dupont was a challenge this morning! Not to mention I was woken up at 3:30am with the most ridiculous charlie horse in my left calf. You know, the kind that when you try to stand up, you immediately topple over. Being half asleep wasn't helping the situation. That has got to be one of the worst ways to wake up.
But I'm just going to have to put that behind me and focus on day three's class. My goal for today is a little more than just showing up for class. During the floor series, there is a bikram situp that is done after each savasana. To do a bikram sit up, put your toes and heels together, flex your feet and keep your heels on the floor. Bring your arms over your head, cross your thumbs, keep your arms and head together. Sit up, double exhale....yeah well, you get the point. And yes, that's verbatim. Anyway...the part that I always have trouble with is the "arms and head together". I always seems to use my arms for leverage and swing them forward. Tonight, I will try to keep my arms and head together. My arms and head will not separate dammit.
