Common Mistakes to Avoid

Confusing Surya Namaskar A and B calorie costs

Surya Namaskar B includes Virabhadrasana (Warrior I) and is 17 postures vs 12 for A, burning approximately 40-50% more per round due to longer duration and additional muscle engagement.

Using slow restorative pace estimates for fast flow

A fast-paced Sun Salutation (20-25 seconds/round) can have a MET value of 7-8, while a slow meditative pace (60+ seconds) is closer to MET 3-4. Pace dramatically affects calorie burn.
