PiscesOh Yoga, Don't Break Our Hearts
Experts say practicing yoga may not be adequate exercise for cardiovascular health.
The guy who coined the term "aerobics" is attacking the downward dog, saying most yoga classes do not provide enough exertion to keep the heart healthy, and that 30 minutes of cardio, three times a week, should be added to your routine, reports the Wall Street Journal.
It's hard enough as a Mom to find the time and energy to get any "workout" into our day. We say that if you make the time to do an hour of yoga, you're way ahead of the Mom whose heart rate is only elevated during those McDreamy scenes on Grey's Anatomy or when she reads the sex quiz in Cosmo.
Do you make the time to exercise? What's your favorite physical activity? Comment below.

I am a Yoga practitioner and teacher.You have to do cardiovascular exercise at least 30 minutes before doing Yoga.Then alone you enjoy doing yoga.Raising your breath helps to clear the breathing passage and warm up the body to do asanas.Yoga is a body mind complex exercise if we can call it so and it really works well at subtler levels of mind to keep you body and mind in perfect shape.I am a mrathoner and a hiker and dancer and I can do all this because of Yoga practice.Yoga is not acrobatics as many American Yoga teachers teach.The asanas are just meditation in continuation.
