@Enquiringmind777 this is sport. so...u become excellent at it and he is a professional yogi. also- flexabilty at this level gives u a euphoria and you get a 23 hour buzz....finally, this flexabilty helps you live longer, keeps u in phenominal shape, and enables, whatever sport you do (brazil jiujitsu, boxing, muy thai, to be at your top edge. all great mma fighters (bj penn, john fitch, anderson silva, do yoga tokeep them flexable and super strong.
um, these are the "advanced" postures in bikram? wow, about 90% of them are taught in the PRIMARY series in ashtanga, and they're not even that hard----by the way, "forearm-stand" is called pincha mayurasana, and it's known as feathered peacock, not forearm-stand
try lifting up into it from full lotus, that's what you do in the second ashtanga series, do that, then I'll be impressed
Impressive but at the end of the day no more than any advanced yogi can do. For me, you take or leave the postures/flexibility, I'll take enlightenment any day...
wow very nice 2 gud beggners n i personaly love it for better living in dis beautiful earth n i m requsiting u 2 all plz do yoga n make india flover of india
There is so much wrong with how these asanas are being performed. It's a bit worring that people learn yoga without an understanding of real basics, e,g, hands, neck...
you can bet he's vegetarian, maybe vegan. i trained with ida ripley and she went vegan 4 years ago inorder to improve her flexibility. she's one of the best in canada.
There is another video titled: "A little Weird" that has a few seconds of him talking about his introduction to Bikram Yoga. His mom is a certified Bikram Yoga instructor and he started when we was 17, which was 14 years ago.
Alright that's it, I'm grabbing pizza, beer, and a pack of cigarettes.

Interesting question. I honestly don't know. What do you think?
kesmit3 2 years ago
i would think so based on his skill level; however, i don't know if he practices all aspects of yoga or if he does it simply as a "workout".

@GypsyKatcher24 They are actually asanas (postures) from various series of Ashtanga yoga. I do not believe that they are part of Bikram
