Dude, Where's My Core?

[EmYoussif]

You're funny in this video lol =D

[LynxMajic]

I've been practising half locust pose for years... but it doesn't seem like I'm improving at all, my legs just won't get any forward.

[Filaxsan]

I'm trying this exercise to strenghten the core in my wushu lesson and my muscles feels great.

Thanks for sharing :)

[kuha5ster]

do you have any suggestions for yoga forms purely for fat burning?

[yogagarden]

@kuha5ster No. Yoga is one of the worst exercises for fat burning. Keep it simple, control your diet and walk, jog, or jump rope EVERY DAY. The fat will melt off.

[Daniea3]

@kuha5ster Kundalini.

I also agree to do actual cardio 4 times per week as well.

hi patrick , thanks for this great video ;-)How long would you recommend holding the core poses for to strenghten ? like 3 reps of 5 minutes a day ?keep up the great work .

[yogagarden]

@jambonsambo Hold them as long as you are able without your body beginning to shake. That probably won't be 3 - 5 minutes for any of these. More like 30-50 seconds.

You're so cool! Love your style! You make this all so inviting; not intimidating! Great technique and videowork. Also you have a cool demeanor; you don't come off like those yoga geeks...!

[WarpHedgehog]

How long have you been doing yoga ? And how long did it take you to be able to do all these poses?

[yogagarden]

I've been doing yoga for about ten years. It took about 7 to get to the poses shown in this video, mainly because I started so far behind with my leg flexibility.

[STRIKE4LUV]

are you in japan? Cause i see lots of japanese looking people and some japanese words on the boxes.

[soccersquirt82]

I'm really tight in my hamstrings especially. I try to stretch everyday. I play sports which make it tight. Any ideas on good ways to stretch it? Stretching the hamstrings, for me, is very painful. Any stretches?

[soccersquirt82]

Just saw your Yoga for People Who Hate Stretching. Thanks!

[ozespreit]

Dear Patrick,

I saw your surfing and yoga film and I always had felt that connection, and I think it is a GREAT video!!!! Damn, all the vids are FANTASTIC.

I am too stiff, but learn to not care and have fun, not looking at others/comparing.

U rock!!! Do you have a girlfriend?

Hahahahahaa
