Yoga was like runnng track or swimming to me HS. I used to make fun those who did it (I dont know why). Then joined the track team my junior year, aftermom's advice. And well I got my @#$ kicked everyday day in practice. Like running, yoga looks easy but there's more to it once you do it.

honestly dude, the first 45 minutes are hell. once you hit the 43 minute mark, it gets a lot better.. still hard, but it gets better.

Just finished the second week today. Kind of got off schedule a little bit, I had to skip the yoga on thursday because I didn't have time to workout, and Idid the Kenpo today instead of Saturday, but that's still one workout missed in the first two weeks and I'll take it. Hopefully I can step it up thisweek and really get the most out of the workouts now that I'm in a little better shape. I swear though I'll never be able to do some of the stretchesthey do, I'm just not even close to being flexible enough.

Is there anyway to incorporate sqauts/deadlifts/lunges into the workout?
I feel like the leg workout isnt enough for me, so im planning to go back to the gym on the Legs/Back day and substitute those leg workouts for my old routine.
Another thing, would it be better to do squats earlier in the week then do the plyos later on in the week or vice versa?

Now that I started over on Monday from day 1, you better believe I did! I use P90 as a reference now and not so much EXACTLY WHAT IT SAYS. I take the book tothe gym n do it there. And on Mondays: Chest and Back. For every time it says Pushup... You do bench. And you can also do Bench and THEN the push up it says todo. What I did though was do the chest and back day normally. And then on Tuesday or even Saturday do the benching. Think about it, it wont HURT your results.It will only make them better.

For those of you who substitute something on Yoga day... What workout do you guys do instead?
Honestly, I would rather be doing something else other then yoga X.

Do cardio x instead. It starts off first half with yoga, then plyo, then kenpo. it's great.

day 4 for me today also. looks like a few people started this week. anyone else using bands? i ordered the set from bodylastics and like it for the most part.although i have to pause it at times to get positioned correctly.
yoga was tough, sat out through a good amount of the first part. was able to do most of the stuff once it got halfway through.
i actually had more pain in the first couple days in my upper thighs than anywhere else. i'm used to going to the gym 5-6 days a week for some time now -so the arm workouts aren't that hard. but i still have a lot of trouble doing pull ups! i have the iron gym extreme but being tall i can't really goall the way down and let my body 'hang' for a break...so it's kind of a pain.
since im used to working out, motivation won't really be a problem for me, i just am not used to working out for 13 weeks without a good break in between.because from what i've heard the off weeks aren't really that..haha
