Sun Salutation - Day 26 of 30 Day Practice

Today was the 26th Day of the 30 day practice and only 4 days are remaining. Now I am practice the entire 21 sets in one go and there is not much tiredness and it seems that the body is quite strong enough to take the entire 21 sets and stamina has also increased. It is really pleasing feeling for me. At present I am doing slowly and take a break of 5-10 seconds after 4 sets. Present style is to be more of awareness style where I try to focus as much as possible on the breathing. Now in next few days my aim would be to see how much faster I can do to test the stamina and without the small break also. When the speed increases it will be more of a exercise and less concentration will be possible on the breathing. But I would like to see how it goes and what is the capacity of my lungs to tolerate that. This will test my vital capacity.

Gains Till Now
Following are the major physical gains.

1. The most significant strength and the shape up have been in the legs and the chest. The shoulders are also in a healthier shape. I have some fat deposit on the abdomen and though it has reduced my I had expected more.


2. As mentioned above, the stamina has increased a lot.


3. Overall body flexibility is much more now.


4. Back Strength has improved significantly.
