 The strongest young gymnasts can only do a very poor imitation of
 yogic flying for a couple minutes, at which time they are so
 exhausted that they can't carry on -- that alone indicates that even
 the slight evidence of YF to date is clearly consciousness-based,
 not muscle-based. YFers can do it for twenty minutes, so it's
 clearly not fatiguing like the tremendous muscular effort needed to
 throw the body around.

That was always a movement argument but I question it. I've seen yogic
flyers get plenty winded, and not coincidentally, the yogic flying
champions Eddie Gob and Blaine Watson were ex-gymnasts.

 Hey, I think the TM-Sidhi program is great and I'm not
 a TB by any stretch of the imagination. It took years
 of regular practice before I noticed anything though
 and then did I notice!!
 
 I practiced regularly for 25 years
 and didn't notice anything...
 
 What about the people around you? They are often
 the ones who notice the changes rather than ourselves.
 Uns.

I'm sure that all those thousands of hours of practice had an effect, but I
never experienced a flavor or result on a sutra.

 Ballet dancers can touch down in such a way that it
 looks like they weigh almost nothing, but they do it
 with their legs extended so they act as shock absorbers.
 In full lotus, there isn't much to work with in that
 respect.

Yes there is. You kind of land on your knees then bring your butt down. And
even if you land butt-first, it doesn't matter much, given the heights
involved.
