Day 17 Total Body Yoga Workout Challenge | Yoga With Tim

The Secret to Waking up Your Core Muscles in the standing poses is...
Watch to find out ; )

[@ShellfireGrayson]

Oof, as a fair-skinned person whose aunt died of melanoma, please don't discourage people from wearing sunscreen. The sun can cause cancer; sunscreens don't. Apart from that, I'm loving the practices. Only found you recently (during the 3rd UK lockdown) but I'm going to go through all your back catalogue after this challenge!

[@pamelabrodhead2996]

I've had melanoma twice & multiple basal cell cancers & moms ( one in the corner of my eye). I think Tim would encourage natural sunscreens. Stacy really strong & graceful; Nice practice, just a little long, but I got through it

[@giuliawegner5926]

Very important to protect the skin from strong sun, but some sunscreen can be bad for the skin and the creatures of the sea (if we wear it and then go swimming).. I would avoid strong summer sun in the midday hours and/or apply organic skin- and sea-friendly sunscreen..

[@markin1238]

Joke...

[@garwe92]

Ah Tim! Never stop being you, so nice to smile during a class

[@yogawithtim]

Thanks Tashinga ! :D

[@annettelynoneil]

Came for the yoga, stayed for the epic dad jokes.

[@lisapfeiffer3020]

Thank you for the adjustment of moving the femur back. It made a big difference. Please keep reminding us of all this fine tunings. It has me coming back each day. Merci

[@yogawithtim]

You got it. Thank you

[@mrpapworth]

This was the best class yet bro! I’ve never sweat so much and this is like the fourth 30 day course of yours that I’ve done so far between the yoga dose sessions and the ones on your own channel. Love how much more chilled you are teaching now, you are cracking me up. I’ll be using “country crock of crap” in my daily conversations now. I hope everyone watching can understand that life needs to be laughed at every once in a while and not to always be so freaking serious. Good on ya dude! I’m a barber in the uk and have been trying to inspire everyone in my chair to follow your channel for both physical and mental guidance. Keep it up cos you are really helping me out here! 🤘🏻🤘🏽🤘🏾🤘🏿 If you come to the UK, hit me up cos there’s a free haircut waiting for ya.

[@paigestevens970]

Found it hard to “let go” in shavasana when I couldn’t stop laughing about “country crock of crap!” Thanks for the laughs; today’s practice was good for the soul.

[@yogawithtim]

Haha, right on! Stoked you enjoyed the practice

[@whotookmyname1]

You are probably too young to remember when they pulled all of the red M&Ms due to cancer concerns for Red Food dye.

[@andreaandmatt1]

I heard margarine was really good for you, better than all natural butter. Love the hat Tim!

[@charabooker1242]

I think Tim is funnier when Stacy is here!😁❤️ Thanks for a real challenge today! It is a good idea to wear a hat in all that CA sunshine! 🌅🕉

[@cariannestone8690]

So amazing and fun! The lightheartedness, humor, real vibe is golden! Together it makes this a happy place! I am committed to getting to a retreat of yours! Thank you both so much, Ollie too! Namaste

[@zmcwardy]

We know it's going to be a tough day when Stacey is up! :-) Great practice, could definitely feel my focus shift in the back leg. Lots of laughter too, poor Stacey.

[@claremarples6764]

That was the best day of the series....so far. I’m a bit behind, but LOVING this 30 day challenge!!

[@elysevanderroer2667]

Hi Tim! It may sound crazy for people who can do this easily, but hallelujah, today I managed for the first time to lift that leg up behind me without falling! And I could maintain the pose all the way through ... so cool! Thank you so much Tim, thank you Stacy and thank you Ollie for another great start of new dimensions 😅😘🙏❤️

[@yogawithtim]

Amazing, Elyse. That is great. Thank you for sharing!

[@katieisselpitre]

Hi Tim and thank you Tracy. Your practice is so collected and grounds me. I trust your pacing and don’t feel I need to rush to keep up. It’s a breath centered practice. Also, through this practice I’m noticing my strength imbalances. Left lats are stronger and I can feel it in chaturanga push up. Thanks for the teachings.

[@SilvanaDelosHerosS]

Hi Stacy and Tim, love your cool mood and how you have fun without losing focus on the practice. I had fun and I feel stronger! Thank you guys!

[@yogawithtim]

You're welcome Silvana!

[@neevydee6103]

Just coming back to this practice to remind me of the good old days!!! - Tim stoned on Pranayama no doubt, wearing his supercool sombrero and ranting about the lies of the establishment. Soooo awesome 😎 Love this practice

[@suzannehorvath4472]

Back bend on knees - able to reach and grab my ankles! Yahoo! Thanks Stacy and Tim! Lived a healthy life for 50 years and still got MBC. Its okay though as yoga and a continued healthy lifestyle is keeping me well. :)

[@yogawithtim]

Hey Suzanne! You're welcome :)

[@paramitamoitra8666]

The conspiracy to keep us healthy and fit is well accepted😆. Thanks for the energising practice Tim.

[@yogawithtim]

Thank you, Paramita!

[@yogawithsuze]

Very good and very funny too. Don't forget Red wine is bad for you then Red wine is good for you, phew! I think we can all make up our own minds and always do Yoga. Thank you Tim and Stacey for another great video. Love the hat. :)

[@yogawithtim]

Don't get me started with the wine! And chocolate HAHA. You're welcome Suzanne! Stoked you enjoyed the practice

[@lukethemuse9921]

The infinite light in me sees infinite light in you. Namaste. Tim, this practice changed everything. The half splitz and three legged dog have strengthened my whole lower body. My hips, legs, and lower back are much more open. I love this! I am a day behind, but I am still going! Day 18 for me tomorrow. I feel like I can now go into warrior one with complete awareness and balance now. Thanks TIm!!!

[@PlouplePoupi]

Ma séance préférée à ce jour. J’ai adoré ! Quel bonheur d’être encore là avec autant de Motivation et d’enthousiasme grâce à vous 3 (Ollie compte !). Thank u so much Tim.🙏🏻👍🏼🍒

[@yogawithtim]

:) You're welcome!

[@terryosmond3647]

Two days in a row, no interruptons today. Need more time to establish Downward dog. Every time Stacy is with you you guys kick the snot out of me.

[@yogawithtim]

Yes!

[@mollybeebop]

I wanted to say how much I appreciate your focus on core in all of your practices. I have been doing yoga for a while, but for the first time, I feel like my poses are more as they should be, all due to a stronger core. (And it's helpful for life stuff too!) Thanks for all the great videos!

[@juliemarcum5880]

Thanks for a great class! You give great directions and this class did help me with straightening my shoulders in plank, by taking the cues of lengthening through the spine and previous cue when you had Stacy stand like she had hands on the wall, I realized my hands were much too far forward in plank. Awesome series!

[@yogawithtim]

Awesome - Great feedback. Thanks Julie.

[@abbysunshine4833]

You are a goofball! That was a great practice. Stacy is amazing too!

[@aysetashkiran7567]

all the details for leg creases, femur and full use of the foot were great - thanks

[@Aleksandra_li]

Thank you so much Tim and Stacy! Day 17 I'm still here. I know that official challenge is over but i feel like writing a comment keeps me more disciplined. So yeah. If someone reads it may be this sortve "obligation" may also work for you if you like me struggle with being consistent with habits.

[@sandrah5278]

Thanks for your comment. I came at the right time😉🤗

[@samanthawestendorf732]

Thanks for reinforcing the idea of the neutral spine and engaged back leg. My spine felt much more open in Warrior 1.

[@ximenaaguilar9159]

Stacey is a great example of good postures. Thank you guys!

[@melindaboxall-forsythe4415]

Great class as always. Love the laughs too. Thanks Tim, Stacey and your gorgeous canine.

[@yogawithtim]

Our pleasure!

[@BellBirdMusic]

You have got your dad jokes down pat. This is my fourth year following your practice, your teaching just keeps improving. Keep it up!

[@gcsacrey8503]

I really like the reminders to strengthen the back of the leg. Changes everything!

[@bennye779]

Really enjoyed the extra emphasis on building length through a solid grounding of the thighs. Building up my back body strength and postural muscles has become an especially important focus of my practice as of late and I appreciate learning each of these tidbits about how to have a solid foundation. Great as always, thank you Tim and Stacy!

[@lucyacosta2337]

Yayy!, Stacy's back, Hi! Love the hat Tim and humor...lol. Touching my feet in the back bend position was great and I was able to grab my feet. Ollie is so well behaved and I love him too! Have an amazing Friday! See ya tomorrow. Namaste!

[@yogawithtim]

Hey Lucy! So stoked you enjoyed this practice and are doing the challenge! See you tomorrow!

[@elizabethjohnston7776]

You had me cracking up this whole video. I loved the moving of thigh bones back to help engage the outer hips. Once again another game changing nuance! Stacy should know I have to smile too when doing challenging core work. It’s the only way to really get my lower abdominals to stay engaged. Namaste Tim and Stacy 🙏

[@jamessimpson5129]

Great class, as usual. Thank you for the focus on tadasana in every pose, and "turning on" the quads to help strengthen & support every pose: plank, chair, warrior 1, standing split. I could feel each of those poses improve during class with your guidance, in a way they haven't in over 20 years of practice. :-)

[@michellepage6178]

Great flow , Tim and Stacy. I love the reminders about posture and getting long without sinking.

[@yogawithtim]

Thanks Michelle!

[@Wildmanrouse]

Good vibe today and lots of fun throughout. Cool hate too Farmer Tim's Yoga yeeeeee harrrrrrrrrrrr boy!

[@robsmith7503]

That was challenging. You are starting to push past my level I think. Already looking forward to tomorrow. Thanks

[@tiffanymcneil9569]

Just here to say hi since you always ask folks to comment. I've been doing these every morning and got to the point where I feel I owe you a comment, so here we are. FYI - what Tim is wearing and whether or not there are new characters is an ongoing family discussion in our house. "HEY TIM'S WEARING A DORKY SUNHAT LIKE YOURS" for example, or "STACEY'S BACK." Thanks for the quarantine fun - it's truly a highlight of my days - especially this week.

[@eleonoreconstant]

You lifted my mood and it felt so good to practice with you and Stacey (and chat about conspiracy theories ;) ) I hope you have a great weekend Tim and thanks so much for this amazing class!

[@yogawithtim]

You're so welcome. Thanks Eleonore

[@sanjapetrashek8608]

I have been doing yoga on and off for years now. I’m getting back into it and this is the first time I’ve done my blanks right. With your guidance I immediately noticed the difference. My blank was stronger more challenging and I actually felt the energy coursing through my body equally and undisturbed. Thanks to much for the excellent explanation!

[@lennyasmrart]

two things i learned today,,,,,,,,"yoga is pain" and "eat margarine"......lol lol txs !!!!

[@yogawithtim]

LOL

[@anapatil]

it was awesome... can feel the back stretched nicely. thanks Tim!

[@yogawithtim]

You're so welcome!

[@traceyprice4305]

Fab practice particularly liked the guidance for posture and the difference that then made throughout. Oh and also found the sunscreen and eggs 'country crock of crap - hilarious!! Thanks, Tim and Stacey

[@marygrimm1421]

Terrific class focusing on back extension! Felt so awesome as my yoga practice is allowing me to recover from falling down a flight of stairs, 2 yrs ago. Yoga has been the best medicine🙏🏼🧘🏼‍♂️

[@yogawithtim]

Yoga truly can be, so stoked you enjoyed this practice :)

[@vassilis_tsk]

This funny hat, nailed it Tim! Thanks Stacey :)

[@jennagiles6585]

Today was AWESOME!!! Every part of me feels worked! Please, never stop your Tim-isms! It’s one of my favorite things about this channel, and I have been around for years now!!! #CountryCrockofCrap

[@soosangles]

Wonderful - Im doing this over and over - thanks Mex-Tim...

[@ericklenofsky1943]

Tim, after years of doing these videos on and off you've finally made me laugh while doing yoga lol see you tomorrow 👍🏻

[@loideesantos2769]

Great flow today, Tim. Stacey’s moves are so accurate and easy to follow. Thank you, Stacey.

[@yogawithtim]

You're welcome Loidee!

[@heatherdear5916]

Thanks Tim and Stacey. Love the hat 👨‍🌾 I’ve done all 17 days and can definitely feel the difference in terms of strength and energy 👍🏻😀

[@yogawithtim]

You're welcome Heather! Stoked to hear that!

[@danielmattera1269]

I love your cues about where the weight should be, the extensions, etc. I have a job that requires cuing people all day about their body and I appreciate how good you are at it. Thank You. I look forward to my practice each day.

[@lukechampion6381]

Hey Tim and Stacy. I'm still with the challenge. Thanks so much for sharing your practice, I really appreciate it. It makes my life that little bit better. Warmest of feelings to you both.

[@yogawithtim]

You're welcome Luke! It is our pleasure!

[@richardmoody5172]

Great lesson today! And thanks Tim for the humor, as it it eased my efforts Thank you Stacy for the flawless poses

[@yogawithtim]

You're welcome Richard!

[@valeriemessner3650]

So the awakening for me was so simple. The awareness and focus on my thighs in poses created an increase of activity and a .... unification? of my core that has not been intentional before. I felt more in control and stable. I couldn't tell which words you said exactly when it clicked, but it did it for me! Thanks!

[@cmain1938]

Omg that back leg thing!!! Where have you been my whole yoga life. Please cue that for me forever. 😍

[@robynryan3937]

Tim, I think your fun hat made you goofy today, e.g., sun screen/margarin rant. Appreciated your nuance about making sure you're weight is in the backs of the heels in mountain pose. Also, jeepers, but, as a mere mortal, could not hold the chair for as long as Stacey could. As always, thank you three, Ollie too included, for another great class.

[@natalieyeend533]

The cues and tips were perfect, the humour was just what I needed, namaste

[@yogawithtim]

Glad you enjoyed it Natalie

[@donnabatchelor5691]

Oh yaaaay! I have trouble with this. Can't wait to do this after work today. Thanks Tim and Stacey! And Ollie......

[@yogawithtim]

You're welcome Donna!

[@jillkietzke3571]

Oh my! What a perfect Saturday morning snow falling sweat dripping off my face onto the mat video! Thank you!

[@shivaniarora7138]

Excellent class loved every bit of it ....... Thanks Tim

[@MLP0066]

Great practice, once again! 17 straight days of yoga, thank you.

[@yogawithtim]

Thats awesome! You're welcome!

[@harrison122203]

I look forward to this practice every day. It’s a great way to start the morning! Thanks!

[@brandonlim7186]

Hi Tim. Love your hat! Reminded me the straw hat of one piece. Today's yoga made my heart pump like strong engine! I love it! Thank you!

[@yogawithtim]

You're welcome Brandon! Glad you liked the hat

[@catherineanderson4585]

That was fantastic. Your tip-top yoga tips are THE best. When you said to push your femur bone back, tada.....it made a really big difference. Love seeing the 3 of you, and the hat!!

[@yogawithtim]

Thats great to hear Catherine! Stoked that cue helped!

[@ginnyoverbeck2312]

I really worked up a sweat in today’s class. Great practice! Love your sense of humor! 😂

[@yogawithtim]

Right on! Thanks Ginny!

[@Vorundor]

Day 18, one! This was a great flow, you had me laughing a couple of time there with the "blow" and the margarine joke at the end. The eggs too, now I'm eating em every day. That whole back foot mindfulness before going to Warrior 1, helped A LOT! balance is so much easier now. Thank you for a great and fun flow and practice. Have a blessed day you guys, see you tomorrow!

[@yogawithtim]

Hahaha! Stay with the eggs and you have a blessed day too!

[@andrewfudalewski8036]

Yeah the lesson on extending the back through the leg was super helpful, feeling a lot of the positions more than I did before. Tough class but good.

[@yogawithtim]

Great to hear! Thanks for sharing, Andrew! :)

[@ellenwenberg4556]

Thanks Tim and Stacy! Great explanations and demonstration of form today.

[@yogawithtim]

You're welcome Ellen!

[@alvarodiegoherrera6342]

Thanks Stacey and Tim. This was pretty intense stretch. I really enjoyed it. Nice hat Tim :) See you in the next video!

[@yogawithtim]

Our pleasure!

[@MM-pf5xo]

I love how you make me lol for real while I'm holding poses. Thanks for bringing the realness to the practice. #margarine #sunblock #eggs

[@yogawithtim]

You're so welcome! Thank you!

[@mijonz]

This is one of favorite classes. I really didn’t like week one because it was so slow, but this part of the challenge has been awesome. I love the structure and the focus on alignment. I also feel like the modifications are really helping me to do yoga with aggravating my long term injuries. This is frequently an issue that I find with a lot of online learning. Not everyone has the strength to do yoga everyday.

[@rigglekings47]

¡Fantástico Día 17! 👍 Feeling stronger 💪 and feeling more secure with my practice. Stacy always a 🌟. Thanks to both for today's class. Looking forward for day 18! Kids are watching 🤪 Namaste 🙏🧘‍♂️

[@nicolebarry5366]

Thank you Tim. Always love your teaching. And yes - the sun is so important for us.

[@Mysteryman93]

I'm still in! Feeling better and better with each day. Still not close to straight leg when sitting position grabbing the feet, but to maintain my back posture, i bed my legs. Hope this is correct. Thanks Tim!

[@noplacelikehere]

Loved this one, as always! Thanks for your on point jokes and the laughter

[@yogawithtim]

Thank you, Stacee.

[@valeriedesmazes4631]

I did this sequence in the morning and it’s so good to laugh when the sun rising thank you so much!!!

[@yogawithtim]

Haha! Cool. Thanks Valerie.

[@tinayule6724]

Tim, rockin' the hat, I'm impressed! Another great practice. Thank you!

[@yogawithtim]

You're welcome!

That was an awesome flow! Thanks Tim

[@yogawithtim]

So glad you enjoyed it! You are very welcome 😊

[@tobywilliams506]

Good one! I like it when you start with a seated few breathes or brief meditation before going into the practice. I'd be happy to spend the extra few minutes to settle in. Missed that today. Sat down and then immediately stood up.

[@laurasherman4704]

The cue throughout to lift the top of the thigh and firm the hips down was really helpful. All of the cues you gave through the W1 to Pyramid to W3 sequence were great. Slowing that process down was challenging. There's a tendency to fly through W1 during sun salute B. You gave me a lot to focus on. I was still a little sore from activate the glutes day yesterday, so W3 was challenging today. Thanks!

[@yogawithtim]

You're welcome Laura!

[@levousta]

Bro this is funny 😂😂😂 love it and I enjoyed it so much! Thanks Tim and Stacey 💕💕💕

[@yogawithtim]

Our pleasure! Thank you!

[@bes1901]

Yoga with my 3 favs, Tim, StaGibbs & Ollie :) Always good to start my day with the 3 of you.

[@mirandagoode7092]

Really appreciated your sense of humour on this snowy Friday night in Canada 🤓❄️

[@yogawithtim]

Thanks Miranda! Stoked you enjoyed the class!

[@joshwhitmer8474]

Good practice.. commentary was definitely on point.😂. Great hat btw!

[@yogawithtim]

haha thanks Josh!

[@shippy2012]

I have terrible hip pain so can only do 15 mins at a time (the joys of being in my late 50's). Really enjoying this challenge, Tim. I didn't do it in 2020. Keep up the good work :)

[@yogawithtim]

Glad you're enjoying the challenge. Thanks John

[@pridepra6644]

Thank you for making my days better

[@kjaersund]

Great session. I learned something about my left side when I work the thighbones back.. Nothing better than that. For some reason it isn´t "on" the same way as my right side. Suspecting that deeper smaller muscles doesn´t want to do the job. ( I feel it across the sitbone, sacrum and left lower back in the standing table on the left foot, and on the sideplank left side. AND when I lift the left foot up an inch in the plank) Anyways, I am enjoying this challenge. Thank you for sharing knowledge from that a farmer hat.

[@Moveonlessons]

Thanks, today was really hard! Have never sweated as much doing your yoga class

[@tomlangdonec]

Being a chef and standing for 12hr+ a day, it seems you have described that I already have a naturally perfect stand posture 👍. Now if only could bend my knees.....

[@jujumouli]

Yoga with a side of #Rofl Loving it! I had a tendency to sink into my joints under the mistaken impression that it would give a deeper stretch. Having worked on improving my tadasana line which you keep stressing on during the practise, I can feel a marked difference in my form and it has been great. Thanks again Tim for the Yoga, laughs and everything you do!!

[@yogawithtim]

Thats so great to hear! Right on! You're welcome :)

[@samwade4380]

Killer workout, thanks Tim xx

[@yogawithtim]

You're welcome Sam!

[@micheleangelo7344]

“Yoga is pain” 😂 enjoy your wit and Really Enjoy your classes!! Thanks so much 🙏

[@yogawithtim]

Haha! Thanks, Michele.

[@SchmidtymeTimbers]

Hooie! Today's workout was more intense than usual, but in an awesome way. Really focusing on the postures in this video and playing some background music really set a high stoke level for this session. Thanks Tim! The humor is like icing on the cake =D lol, I'll echo what everyone else said -> in the middle of a tough balancing pose and something like "country crock of crap" or similar commentary just makes me crack a smile or straight up laugh hope you're safe'n healthy with all the craziness going on lately. These videos help the shelter in place cabin fever

[@maytegtz4955]

Love the flow, beautiful sun and view, Stacy amazing poses and great energy, wonderfull team. Namaste!

[@yogawithtim]

Thanks Mayte! Namaste :)

[@catalinagutierrez5983]

Great practice. Catching up after missing two days and it was a bit challenging, but back on it! Thanks for wearing that hat, made me smile :)

[@ladawnweston]

I've done these workout for three days and feel stronger. Thanks!

[@Katejackson-dc5fi]

My favourite session so far! Felt super energised, super worked my core and loved the banter.....x

[@MumuA100]

Today’s practice went so fast, appreciated the explanations which reinforced I’m doing it right :) And love your humour!

[@yogawithtim]

So stoked you enjoyed the class!

[@catherinecoish4829]

Holy s@#$! Getting back to basics is intense! Sobering for sure. I truly enjoyed the background chatter...what heck is margarine anyway???? Thank you Catherine

[@annvandelangerijt6722]

Nice hat and beautiful yoga clothes that Stacy is wearing 😀great to have a fun factor in the yoga classes Thanks !!

[@yogawithtim]

You're welcome Ann!
