I tried to post with you to get to 300, but FF didn't want to play.

Anyway, nice job. You should post the link in the topped board guide.

My yoga teacher tried to get me to do a headstand today...I'm way too scared to try because I feel like I'm going to overbalance and smack forwards onto my back

Oh dear. I've had yoga suggested to me as a cure for my stiffness when I'm riding, but I'm wary to try it, I can't even touch my toes.

Sometimes I think someone is going to peer through the window of our yoga class and they'd have a great sight to behold

I bet they would!

Yoga is very good for you. Lisa used it to cure a back injury rather than have several risky operations when she was younger. And I'd love to be more supple. But I'm stiff as a board and always have been since I was a toddler, so I can't see it working for me.

Yes, it could be.

Cat - I'm really stiff too. I still can't touch my toes - I have short hamstrings (And I'm very unfit generally ) The thing I love most about yoga is how relaxed I feel afterwards.

I think I'm far too accident prone to even try yoga out. I've got a pilates DVD that I crack out every now and then. Much more safe for clumsy little me

I still nearly giggle each week when we chant at the beginning.

What's pilates like, Sylv? A friend of mine has just started it but they haven't done much yet so I don't really know what you do!

Chanting. See, that's why I could never do yoga in public!

Pilates is very relaxing actually and not too hard at all, especially if you're a beginner like me (despite havin several books at the DVD for 3 years I don't do it as much as I should ). A lot of the focus is on breathing right, getting a good rhythm to it and just strengthening your muscles, or toning them up. I'm still working on my university-induced beer belly

What do you chant about?

Mum bought a pilates video once, but it's now gathering dust with every other exercise vid she's ever bought.

What is it with mums and fitness videos?! My Mum is continually saying to me "help! I keep buying naughty things from Sainsbury's!" and I don't know what she expects me to do.... maybe I need to put a bakery aisle restraining order on her or something
