Tuesday yoga is on the regular, so there was nothing particularly remarkable about it other than my almost complete and utter lack of flexibility in my legs. I am always feeling fatigued in my joints and quads in this class so I feel like quite a woos and weakling!!
One thing that did occur is that I was able to hold crow pose longer than ever and even bring my feet towards my butt. I was proud of myself for this! At least
some muscles are getting stronger! Michael has noted recently that my back "looks jacked" and said so again when I asked him to take that sunburn picture I posted this week.

The other thing, was that Beth described how to get into side crow in such a way that I was actually able to get it!!! For a spit second I was completely balanced on my right side on my left arm with both legs (instead of cheating with my hip on my right arm too!) I WAS SO PSYCHED!

Beth also set us up for some inversions, which always generally make me happy (!!), but I just thought I was too tired and didn't want to injure myself. I played a bit with dolphin pose to work on my arm strength, but otherwise, I was afraid I'd collapse my neck and shoulders, so I shied away from it.
