Beat Stress, Weigh Less: Calorie-Burning Yoga Workout
How the Workout Works
De-clutter your brain while totally trimming your abs, butt, and thighs -- these moves will slim you down and bliss you out. "You'll feel how much more toned you get with these twists, but all the zen of yoga is still there," says Kristin McGee, an instructor at YogaWorks in New York City who mixed this routine from a trio of new classes exclusively for FITNESS. Complete the circuit twice -- the first move of each pair is done at a fast tempo to rev calorie burn, the second is an allover sculptor. Pause in the starting pose of each sculptor for three deep breaths before your reps to get a steady dose of calm. Do the plan two or three times a week for your total mind-body makeover.
What you'll need: A yoga mat

I agree with illiana. I've been doing a combination of dirty yoga - http://www.dirtyyogaco.com - and running and I'm in the best shape I've ever been in my life. I do Dirty 4 times a week and run twice and it's been working incredibly well. Probably because I'm always soaked through at then end of every dirty yoga session. Take a look. I find it to be the best routine I've ever had and it wont be something that stops as I don't have to do anywhere. Love it.
