For the past while Thursday nights (GAS see Asana entry) have been proceeding like this; 3As, 3Bs, padangusthasana, padahasth, and then the warrior sequence starting with ukatasana through to vira II repeated either 3 or 4 times, then prep for back bend, then final three, or 4 if uutpluthi (5 breaths) is counted. This is mainly because Gilles has injured his hamstring. It was injured before I went to Tokyo, and is still recovering... come to hink about it I should send him the link on the ashtanga board so he'll know how easy he got off...
Loren and I have taken to a gentle Wednesday night practice at 295, though the past 2 weeks I've made other plans.
This Saturday I put the mat down and did 108 sunsals. For the first 10 minutes or so I was considering that I could do this once a week... towards the last dozen or so I was thinking not so much... perhaps once a month like I was considering oh probably a year or so ago... we'll see.
Sunday night I did 3 sunsals 1A and 2Bs. (Hamstrings still wondering what hit them after the 108) That's going to be the new routine. I've decided this as my first full week after the Hong Kong course passed and I still can't wake up early. I've been completely exhasuted. Not a mood thing this time simply energy. So the weekly routine is 3 sunals before bed each night Monday through Friday and Thursday night GAS. And I'm goingto try to also get to the gym early to kick-start morning practice. At first I'll just go for the sauna and steamroom... starting tomorrow...
[And now that tomorrow is today, I'm happy to report got to the gym for 07:00... and I think 06:00 is in my sights!!]
