Healthbolt Giveaway: Win a ‘”HeavyWeight Yoga: Yoga For the Body You Have Today” DVD.

Most of the fitness DVDs available are aimed at people who already have a certain standard of fitness.
But what if you are overweight and want to get fit?
Well, Abby Lentz has the answer. Acutely aware that people who are overweight often think that fitness workouts are beyond their reach, Abby has created Heavyweight Yoga, a specially designed version of traditional Kripalu yoga.
Here’s what Abby has to say “I developed HeavyWeight Yoga because I wanted overweight people to know that if someone with a body like mine could practice yoga, then they could, too. Now, five years later, my goal is the same, but the DVD enables me to reach people I’ve yet to meet. I want to help as many heavy people as possible to see yoga as a solution beyond simple weight loss.”
The DVD, while focusing on awareness, acceptance, and affection, provides you with over 2 hours of instruction and inspiration designed to increase your flexibility, build strength, improve balance, and reduce stress.
Sounds like just the thing to get you on the road to fitness.
Healthbolt’s got a copy of Heavyweight Yoga to giveaway. All you have to do is leave a comment by 4th Jan and you’ll be in to win.
Open only to US and Canadian residents
The winner will be announced on 5th Jan and sent an email with the subject heading ‘Healthbolt Giveaway Winner’ with instructions on how to claim their prize.
And don’t forget it’s ‘every day a giveaway’ this month at Healthbolt.
Liz, this is a brilliant idea!
I know, it wasn’t exactly your idea, but it was brilliant of you to post it up here as a giveaway
Thanks for the giveaway. This is awesome. You guys rock!!!
WOuld LOVE to win this! Just talked to my yoga instructor about starting a class for obese people specifically.
I had Yoga for Round Bodies at one point, but it could have been more polished. Look forward to checking this one out!
Wow! I love this concept & I’d love to win this video! Great giveaway! Thanks!
Sounds like a great way to holistic health in the new year.
This is a great dvd. I have some people in mind that would love it.
I adore yoga but it is often difficult to figure out how to do some things with this body. This is exactly what I need.
Sounds like a great DVD! Thanks for the chance!
Sounds like the perfect way to get into Yoga for me. I’m overweight and I’ve tried but never could keep up with those ‘little’ bodies. This would show me that I too can do yoga
Happy New Year!
Not everbody is willing to admit they’re overweight, but I need to lose about 20 more pounds, and since I’m not active at all, this might be the answer for me. Thank you for the chance to win!
this is awesome. i hope i’m the lucky winner
What a great idea! Please count me in.
What a great idea! I think Richard Simmons is the only person who has made a video with large people. I hate watching exercise videos with all skinny people trying to encourage me that I can look like them.
this is perfect I had a heart attack about 2 months ago and I am on my last week of cardio rehab and need something to keep up the movement after discharge.
Thanks
I have tried many times to enjoy exercising to lose weight, but still struggle with it. I have always wanted to learn yoga from the spiritual benefits as well as health. This would be a wonderful DVD to win.
This would be great for me
I love yoga! 
This is a great idea! Thanks for the chance to win!
wow, what a great concept! i can’t believe i haven’t seen anything like this before. i know a few people who could benefit from this… but i’m not sure it make a somewhat insulting gift? anyway, a dvd like this is such a wonderful and useful idea!
Awesome. Someone is finally waking up to the fact not everyone who does those videos is a size 0. Thanks for the chance to win!
I think this is a great idea and would love to try this
I’d love this.
This is a wonderful DVD and hopefully it’ll inspire many people
I love Yoga and I’m happy to see this practice being promoted to folks of all sizes. Those skinny instructors can be a bit intimidating!
I’d love to win this!!
I would love to win this. What a great thing.
I wanna win. I love DVDs like this.
