Here's the thing. I don't care if you convince me or not. I don't look at it as being some honor that you're going to 'bother' providing to me. My opinion is just that - my opinion - and it's going to stay the way it is until I see something that convinces the logical, rational side of me that Yoga is worthless. If you have some facts (the more science / citations the better) then I'd love to see them. But your personal opinion isn't going to convince me of anything. If you want to leave it at that, fine.

if you dont care then why did you ask?

You made a claim I didn't agree with. I thought maybe you had some genuine sources of evidence to back it up. Clearly, you don't.

That doesn't prove a damn thing. All it shows is that some dude is capable of getting healthy and fit and flexible without yoga. What it doesn't show is that his method is the only method. Face it Pennz, you made an untenable claim that you can't back out of, and now you think that personal observation and random examples are going to cut it in arguing with me.

by Pennzoil GT-R Wed Feb 04, 2009 5:17 pm

im not really bothering trying to prove anything to someone has never exercised seriously.

for every hour you spend, you can find far more effective ways of exercising than yoga. i showed how blindingly obvious that was in the first serious post i made in this thread

How do you know I've never exercised seriously? Oh wait. You don't. You make assumptions that fit your world view.

And, again, no facts. Just opinion. Keep it up Pennz. Don't you have better things to do than continue to not try and prove something to me?

No, I told you I don't lift weights or body build, or spend much time in the gym. I do, however swim multiple times a week for extended periods of time. I do go running on the trails in the river valley, etc. I'm not obsessive, but I'm more than serious enough for this sort of conversation.

Besides, how many dudes do you know that regularly do yoga?

That's an awesome reason to not do it.

Do you honestly think yoga is going to get your body into better shape than cardio and lifting weights?

both of your points are stupid and here is why:

A) YES most of the people in yoga class are girls. fucking HOT girls. fucking HOT girls in TIGHTS. fucking HOT girls in TIGHTS, BENDING OVER A LOT. and they are friendly!
B) yoga strengthens muscle groups in your core and back that cardio and weights don't work as effectively, and they also work them differently. plus, yoga is all about building and fixing your posture and balance. cardio and weights do nothing for that.

+1 to all of these. Except I have seen some rather unfortunate girls who shouldn't ever wear spandex bending and flexing in yoga classes.

Point B is false. Granted people rolling around on inflatable balls and playing on machines are wasting their time, but if you know what you are doing weights will fix your posture and massively strengthen your core

Evidence provided = precisely zero.

by Pennzoil GT-R Thu Feb 05, 2009 5:36 pm

im evidence -_-

by big_jesus Thu Feb 05, 2009 5:43 pm

but you shouldn't just jump into weights from non-weights, especially if you just go and lift but don't actually strengthen all the right back and core muscle groups. yoga provides a very good baseline from which one can continue, knowing what good posture and balance are. and weights don't help with balance.

also, point A and C are buku better than point B

hence the bit about doing them properly. i guarantee you deadlifts, squats, good mornings, planks, weighted situps etc. strengthen your core a hell of a lot more than yoga. weights help with balance if you do the correct exercises.

its pretty easy to evidence wally....i spend 90 minutes doing yoga and im bored. i spent 90 minutes doing a weight session followed by a spinning class tonight and felt like throwing up/passing out at the end of it.
