Yoga Conditioning for Weight Loss
Why this woman starts yoga sitting on her legs is beyond me.
I did Yoga in my younger years and did it at the Integral Yoga Institute and went away from the practice for 20 years. If this woman’s DVD is the new market of Yoga, it is a shame. This is her version, it stinks and is almost impossible fora 50 year old out of shape body to do, much less lose weight by. Especially by starting sitting on your legs. How absurd, what a waste of money.

I think this workout is too much for beginners, it’s so slow and so unchallenging it’s really a bore.
I’m 35 and, while I have been excercising for years I’m a yoga newbie and still, this routine felt more like a rehabilitation routine than a exercise routine.
Maybe if you had never exercised before (ever), are at a mature age, had have some serious injury and are starting exercise all over again or are clinically obese, otherwise, it might be boring even to try this one once.
I didn’t like the little preaching by the author, either, I didn’t get the DVD so a slim instructor could tell me that my relationship with food is a flawed one, I bought it to have a routine that would help me burn all those excess calories.

in the editorial comment somebody wrote: Living Arts’s Yoga Conditioning for Weight Loss is a fantastic example of how DVD features can be used to enhance a workout program. The same workout is presented five different ways, and you may choose the combined (which shows all four modifications), complete, slightly modified, partially modified, or fully modified program. This is an unacceptable DVD at least when played on computers. The navigational features are totally messed up. Skip to next chapter doesn’t work as expected, elapsed/remaining times are totally unrelated to the actual time, fully modified (complete) program loops back endlessly in the middle section without ever going to the concluding section and there is no way to start a complete program w/o having to listen to the introductory spiel over and over again. In short one big navigational disaster. Two minor negatives: there is a small but annoying problem with digitalization – there are black band of varying thickness on both sides of the screen. Also, personally I don’t care for the artificial Arizona mesa country background. I vividly remember the unbearable heat of that place.

This DVD is painfully slow, and the menu options are confusing. If the instructor/narrator tells me how to breathe one more time I was going to hurl the DVD out the window. It seems as if it was produced for slow-minded people! I don’t see how you can lose weight with this DVD, it absolutely does not raise your heartrate and is so slow I doubt it increases flexibility or have other health benefits.

The thing I love is that it is go at your own pase they show you four diffrent ways to do things with how flexible you are how tight your muscels are and how to breath good and also what you want to loose weight or get stronger or both.
