Fight yoga, try stress

Today, I'm so unused to physical activity that I got exhausted and fell asleep on my yoga mat not even halfway through the DVD. FML

It's hard to go straight into vigorous exercise right away, and from what I hear yoga can be pretty intense. Start off light and work your way up, nothing to be ashamed of here.

You can't push yourself too hard, OP. People begin at different levels, and you have to respect your own limits. I'm sure with practice, and repeated attempts (at your own pace) you'll be a pro! Good luck!

You have to start somewhere. Keep at it and you'll get there.

At least you're doing something. Don't give up OP

keep it up. getting the energy to start it is the first step. you may not finish it now, or next week, or even next month. keep at it and you will see results. soon enough you'll have the energy to complete it.

I really love how all of these comments are so positive and encouraging. Keep trying op!

Keep pushing yourself!!! You can do it!!! Seriously it'll get easier as you go. You'll feel the benefits too,mentally and physically just overall stronger and less tired all the time .

Don't be such a dick. Generally, people who say that about yoga are people who have never tried it. Even if you have, you should know that it is a challenging workout that requires strength, balance, flexibility and a very strong core. If this is how you treat your friends... I feel sorry for them.
