I want to start a yoga regimine to lose weight, but I’m also a practicing Buddhist. I would like to combine these two elements in a home yoga workout. I have purchased A.M P.M. Yoga and it is very calming and does relax me but I don’t feel like I’m getting much exercise from it.

I have no access to yoga classes or teachers in my area so I must do my own research and build my routine. I know I probably should do yoga with other cardio exercises, but running, etc isn’t really feasible where I live, especially as cold as it is. I also have no access to a gym or weightroom.

Please help! I need to shed these extra pounds fast! I would like to lose approximately 20 pounds or more if possible.

Thanks!

i am looking for a good, basic yoga workout or other similar physical activity in which to start off. i suffer from fibromyalgia and want to regain some strength and help alleviate my muscle tension and pain. thanks!

I injured my knee earlier this summer and have since been unable to do any of my previous cardio workouts because they tend to injure it further. I can’t do swimming because I don’t have easy access to a pool and everything else (elliptical included) is too hard on my knee so will power yoga work? I’ve been trying to lose weight and have done a rather intense power yoga workout about three times already in addition to my pilates workouts and I want to know if this will give me some of the benefits of cardio? I sweat quite a bit during the workout and I want to be sure that I am getting a fair amount of moderate cardio.
