Yoga




I started lifting weights just before my 15th birthday. A few years later (just after graduating high school), I hurt  my back doing leg presses. Countless visits to the chiropractor didn't seem to help for long and flights and road trips became very uncomfortable. My best friend had been mentioning p90x for a while, but I was a dedicated gym guy. We all get in our ruts, so I looked into p90x and saw that it had plyo (jump training), yoga as well as cardio. I started in the spring of 2012 and have not gone to a gym or chiropractor since. Unlike my friends I didn't skip the Yoga. I'd been curious about it for years, but again, we all get into our ruts, so I didn't start until my early 30s. Now I'm doing p90x3, which also has Pilates X. I hope to never go to a chiropractor again. Nowadays, last thing on my mind when I'm flying or going on a road trip is "how will my back be"? Thank you Mr. Horton!
