Today was my no intensity day. I did:
Intuflow Intermediate
Prasara Cricket flow x4
I was glad to notice that I'm making some nice headway with the Cricket flow. When I first saw it a lot of the postures looked impossible and I almost filed the book away as a lost cause. I'm now really glad I didn't. The incremental approach of the book builds strength and ability in unexpected ways and new movement abilities creap up on you in unexpected ways. Today I found myself suddenly able to do the full crane pose and even my transition from crane to modified quad squat / frog pose is almost there. It was quite a pleasant surprise. A few more months of this and I'll officially be a pretzel.

Isn't "No Intensity Day" supposed to be only Intuflow? Do I need to keep you honest?
You will be my inspiration to keep at the Prasara. I think my first attempt being the day following the cert was a bad choice. Being extremely sore and tight was not a good way to start. Not a good way to get motivated.
LOL! You are onto me and my sneaky ways. Unfortunately people have been trying to keep me honest for years and they've all failed miserably. I take it really easy with the Prasara on the no intensity day - more a practice of the sequence than actual training. Don't worry too much about the early stages, you'll be surprised after a month or so with the changes taking place. What I also found helped me was not to hold the postures much. I just kind of get into as close a proximation of the posture as I can and then use the transition to move into the next. For some reason this has given me greater gains quicker than my previous more static yoga practice.
