Your Questions About Yoga Workout Wear

Mark asks…
I am getting a tattoo on my foot tomorrow…?
I usually run about 4 days a week and do aerobics/yoga/light weightlifting. How long until i can wear shoes again and resume my usual workout routine?

Yoga Wear Guru answers:
At least 2 weeks. You want the tat to be TOTALLY healed, no scabbing, no soreness. I would still put a barrier cream (neosporin, whatever the tattoo artist recommends) on your tattoo underneath the sock for the first month after getting inked.
The skin cells on your feet are sloughed away more than on other locations on the body, so be prepared for a foot tattoo to fade sooner than one on another part of your body.

Nancy asks…
Are the Adidas Chen Tao shoes comfortable/supportive enough for aerobics?
Has anyone worn the Adidas chen Tao model of sneakers? How well do they fit? Can they be used in an active workout or just for yoga?

Yoga Wear Guru answers:
They are the most comfortable shoes in the world…I didn’t know yoga classes alowed shoes. I think that for hardcore aerobics…they aren’t good because of the thin soles. But if its like a begginers aerobics class where there isn’t a lot of stepping involved they are good!

Carol asks…
I think I pulled my calf muscle while doing yoga, how long will it take to heal?
I do kickboxing to stay fit, but I wasn’t stretching out my legs enough after workout. Suffice it to say, I started developing a heel spur in my left foot. I went to a podiatrist who said I needed to start stretching out my calves after working out, and that stretching would eventually reverse the heel spur and increase my flexibility. She gave me a few calf stretch exercises to do, one of which was the downward dog pose done in yoga.
To make a long story short, I held the pose so long I overstretched my left calf muscle. I don’t know what I was thinking, as if one stretch would fix the problem like magic overnight. I know better now that a little light stretching everyday would have fixed the problem over the course of a few weeks, but now I can’t even workout. It hurts to kick, and it hurts to stand flat on my feet, I have to a wear a shoe with little heel on it to wear around the house, flip flops hurt. I tried stretching the muscle gently to help rehab it, but that hurt too, and made the pain worse, so I’m kind of lost on what to do. Other than putting ice on it, what can I do to make it heal faster? It’s been two weeks already, it’s improving a little every day, but I still don’t feel like I’m healed enough to resume kickboxing. Has anyone else had this problem? How long will this calf muscle take to heal?
Note: I don’t see outside bruising or swelling so I don’t think it is a complete tear, but I felt a pulling and snapping back sensation when I originally pulled it doing the downward dog, kind of like a rubber band pulling and snapping back together. The pain is right where the muscle meets behind my knee and in the biggest part of the calf itself.

Yoga Wear Guru answers:
It shouldn’t take long at all if you do calf stretches at least twice a day.
Stretch before&after yoga classes for a faster recovery!!
Also a leg massager helps relax muscle tension.
Icy hot anything will do great, even while doing your yoga classes.
Get some pre-wrap & tape. Tape it really good, also good for during classes.
Hot baths.. Point-flex-point-flex.
Hope that helps!!

Daniel asks…
Cute/hot workout oufits?
This sounds stupid, but I feel more driven and willing to exercise when I feel attractive vs. when I wear sweats and a baggy t-shirt. It’s still hot where I live. What to wear? I go running and do yoga some days, and dance and do strength training other days.
