Xen Strength Yoga with Weights is the real deal, a fun hybrid of yoga and strength training that’ll leave you feeling like a superhero with a side of chill. Whether your goal is to torch calories, build strength, or just avoid another mind-numbing treadmill session, Yoga Sculpt is here to shake up your routine — and your glutes.
Why Yoga Sculpt is the game changing workout you’ve been looking for
Yoga Sculpt is not your average, “I’m just here for the resting pose” yoga class. This is the high-energy, sweat-dripping, muscle-burning workout that your inner warrior has been secretly craving – but don’t worry I still guide you into your favorite pose – yes, Savasana. Think of it as yoga on steroids—minus the actual steroids. You’ll be flowing through your favorite Vinyasa moves, but you’ll be adding dumbbells, which makes you feel just a tad more badass. For those of you who want to start out slow, it’s only as hard as you want it to be because you can always modify the poses.
5 reasons why yoga sculpt is about to become your new favorite yoga class:
- Build strength wile increasing flexibility: Sure, yoga makes you bendy. But throw in some weights, and now we’re talking about building serious strength. Yoga Sculpt targets all the major muscle groups—arms, legs, core—while keeping that lovely flexibility that makes you feel like a graceful gazelle, not a stiff robot. It’s the best of both worlds, like peanut butter and jelly, but without the sticky fingers.
- Yoga sculpt burns more calories than traditional yoga: Yoga with Weights burns lots of calories. We’re talking way more calories than your typical yoga class because adding weights turns up the intensity and revs up your metabolism like nothing else. According to various studies, adding resistance training to your workout can supercharge your calorie burn, even after you’ve rolled up your mat and gone home. So if you’ve been Googling “Does Yoga Sculpt burn calories?” the answer is a loud and sweaty yes.
- Yoga sculpt improves your mental focus and clarity: Let’s be honest—our brains are often running on 17 different tabs, and not one of them is about the present moment. Yoga Sculpt demands that you focus, both mentally and physically. When you’re trying to balance in Warrior II while lifting weights, you can’t really think about whether you left the laundry in the washer. The combination of mindful movement and breathwork will clear your mind faster than you can say “Om.” Plus, if you’re taking one of my classes, I always end with a quick shot of meditation.
- Yoga sculpt with weights accelerates results: Want to see results, like, yesterday? Adding weights to your yoga practice is the express lane to muscle toning and fat burning. Resistance training has this nifty way of boosting your metabolism and building muscle mass, which helps you achieve that lean, sculpted look that yoga alone might take a little longer to deliver. Let’s just say, your muscles will thank you—and so will your mirror.
- Yoga sculpt is fun and energizing: Working out can sometimes feel like a chore. But Yoga Sculpt? It’s like a dance party where you just happen to get fit. With upbeat music, dynamic moves, and a whole lot of sweat, you’ll actually look forward to your workouts. Plus, the endorphin rush post-class? It’s like a natural high, without the pesky side effects.
How to Get Started with Yoga Sculpt
You’re ready to dive into the magical world of Yoga Sculpt. But where do you start? The beauty of adding weights to your yoga practice is that it’s accessible to everyone, whether you’re a yoga veteran or someone who’s more comfortable in the “Netflix and stretch” category. Here’s how to jump in:
- Find a yoga sculpt class that fits your schedule: Find a class that works with your life. Xen Strength Yoga offers on-demand classes that fit around your schedule, whether you’re a morning warrior or a night owl. No need to rearrange your day or find a sitter—just roll out your mat whenever you’ve got 45 minutes to spare. It’s like having a personal trainer who doesn’t judge you for wearing mismatched socks.
- Start with light weights: If the idea of lifting weights makes you break out in a cold sweat, relax. Start with lighter weights (think 1-3 pounds) and gradually work your way up. The goal is to challenge yourself, not to end up bench-pressing your kitchen table. Remember, form is key—better to go light and get it right than to go heavy and end up on the couch with an ice pack. (plus I show modifications)
- Listen to Your Body: Yoga Sculpt is designed to push your limits, but it’s not about breaking you. Pay attention to what your body is telling you. Need a break? Take one. Feeling strong?
