Bikram yoga, the hot yoga that has become increasingly popular since the 1970′s, was designed by a man name Bikram Choudhury. It is a 90 minute yoga session which involves 26 different positions and 2 breathing exercises. It is performed in a room that has been heated to 105°F and has a humidity level around 40%. The use of the heated room is to help prevent injury, and deepen the stretching ability as well as reducing stress and tension. The goal of this form of yoga is weight loss and calorie burning, which has been estimated at 500-1250 depending on the person, the intensity of the workout, and other related factors.
