DVD Review: "Fat Free Yoga" with Ravi Singh and Ana Brett

[just_ann_now]

(Reposted from exercise_every_day) A few words about Fat Free Yoga with Ravi Singh and Ana Brett.

This is not one of my favorite dvd's - it actually lives in my "To Give Away" pile - but every now and then I haul it out because of its emphasis on ab and upper body work, as well as breathing and meditation. Ravi Singh is particularly annoying throughout, especially when he's trying to sound like an aerobics class cheerleader, and hearing him talk about toning hips and thighs is just ridiculous. There's one spot where he hilariously misspeaks "public" for "pubic", which just throws me right out of a semi-meditative state into fits of giggles. But every now and then my body says, "No back bends today, please," and that's when I haul this out. And I can say that I've made progress; the first time I did it my abs ached for days afterward and now there are just a few temporary twinges. So that's a good thing.

Ooooh, I've seen the kind of abs stuff you do so this one might be strictly for the lolz. (I like the breath work, though). I'll be quite interested to read your opinion!

Well, considering how my abs HATED me from the other weekend, we'll see how much they are LOL'ing afterwards! :D Once upon a time, perhaps, but what with the recent slacking! But slacking is being vanquished! Back, slacking, back!

Also, TOTALLY LOVE YOUR ICON! :D Death rays are so useful that way! *nods*
