Hmmm where to start here?
Basic Stats:Age: 32
Height: 5'6"
Weight: 189 lbs
Additional activities: kung fu (3 years), yoga (5 years), running (1 year)
I have never been very good at running and only developed a liking for it over the last year. I'm also not much for jumping. So why on earth have I gotten myself into this? *laughs* I really have no clue, except to say I like a challenge.
Major Goals:*Do a pull-up
*improve my sprinting ability
*stop over-thinking things and just move
I have a ton of minor goals I'll post when I have time.
5/19/08PK class at 5280: warm ups (can't remember everything we did, unfortunately)
Vaults way higher than I could really manage, did attempt several though and with the help of the balance beam got up and over a few times
Learned cat leaps, practiced those about ten times
Practiced my vaults over a two foot block, I'm almost at the point where I can vault over it without clipping my feet or touching with anything but my hands. Did some lazy vaults too.
5/20/08kung fu practice hour:
Practiced my testing material, which consists of: two spear forms, four black tiger forms, double tiger hook swords, double broadswords, pa kua, yang style tai chi
lower belt class:
warm ups (10 push-ups, 10 squats, 10 frog leaps, 10 cat-style push-ups, 10 sit-ups, 5 cross-sit-ups (each side), 10 leg lifts, 5 alternating leg lifts), followed by punching and kicking technique practice, and three rounds of sparring.
worked with green belts on short stick form, level 1 preying mantis form for 45 minutes
skipped brown belt class because my allergies have been destroying me.
Hopefully starting up a journal will help me keep track of my progress. (if only I can remember to post here)
