where did you get this? is this your data?
Data I gathered during weekend practice last month.
Wore the heart rate monitor while practicing and taking notes of the variables at the end of each segment.
Just one of the things that I do to keep me from staring blankly at the ceiling on weekends. ;-)
Galing Jon! Last year my doctor told me that yoga is not enough and that I need to engage in some form of aerobic exercise "something that will increase your heart rate to at least 120/min." This is it! Hard data! He couldn't believe I had to catch my breath during practice. I told Teacher Pio about my doctor's comment...very strong reaction niya, he he.
Before I got into ashtanga but was doing hatha at mandarin, I felt the need for aerobic exercise so I did treadmill walking. I am so glad i ran into YM and ashtanga!
