Heavyweight Yoga - Abby Lentz

Hi everyone!

I wanted to know if anyone on this forum has used this DVD before?

I'm quite heavy, but I really wanted to start a yoga program. My joints have felt quite stiff lately. I think this can definetly help me.  A friend of my mother's gave me "power yoga something" part 3, and well, that obviously didn't work at all for me lol. (At least it was free.) I bought another starter yoga DVD, but it is too difficult. The few things I can do, I feel like I'm going to snap something.

That's why I was excited to come across an advertisement for Heavyweight Yoga in a magazine, but before I slap down the dough for another DVD I can't do, I'd like to know if it's worth it.

I am quite physical, but I can't do a pretzel yet. lol

I have not tried that one but I did use just my size yoga, even at 440lbs. There were maybe two positions that weren't comfortable without modifications but the video provided alternatives/modifications to the poses. I love yoga and recommend it highly! If you can find a copy of the JMS yoga, get it! :)

Here is a link to it on Amazon

Thanks for sharing this! I'm definetly going to get it! Thanks for the great recommendation! I'm looking foward to trying this out!

Hi,
I dont know a thing about YOGA but I started aquatic aerobics 5 weeks ago and it is awesome for folks with mobility, dexterity or physical limitations.  Aquatic aerobics permits me to exercise an hour and do things in water that I could never even imagine on land.  I think I finally found my niche and  I only wish my Dr's had told me about this sooner in my life but better late than not at all.

If you are interested check with one of the wellness centers in your local hospitals!


ps I used to live in Orange and E Orange!
