"No matter how poorly you do it or how stressed you are, you're going to get this guaranteed de-stressing, relaxing, anti-civilization effect on yoga."

3. What is your hypothesis?

4. Write a paragraph summary of how you will perform the experiment. Include the tools you plan on using.
I plan to devise a 10-15 min. yoga routine and have 22 people practice for several days. I will record their heartbeat before and after they conduct the exercise. Once the data is collected I will compare the data and analyze the results.
