It ain't easy, but it's honest

 2 posts in one day..... What is happening!?!?

Well first I'm gonna prelude this by a couple of thoughts going through my brain tonight.

"Wow this work out is tough"

"Okay I watched the video of me doing my form I should be fine"

" Yeah of course I remember...... nope I remember nothing"

"Dear Larwdy that stage is small"

"Well I suck... but Im gonna get better"

Okay so this is gonna be about my weapons form. I am not gonna lie. Its been since...April... yeah that sounds about right since I have touched the hook swords. I got super round and was like "as much as I like bruising my legs and abdomen I think Im gonna stop swinging" and I don't regret that. What I regret is not mentally keeping up with the form. Playing with it in my head and improving that way. Well, better late than never I guess. I know that I should not start from scratch at this point but honestly I feel that the form I had no longer fits the intent I want to pull of with my form. I want to do something that I can do and do well. Even if it only 5 or 6 moves. 

Here's to improving after major changes! Huzzah!

Getting back up

 Ahhhh the sweet freedom of being back in class. *inhales* smells like Hard work and Learning.... and sweat... a lot of sweat.

But all joking aside it is wonderful to be back in the kwoon with everybody and being able to take time out of my day to do Kung Fu has been amazing. Im gonna tell you all right now, I knew that I would have less abdominal muscles but it really surprised me how much I lost. Sit ups and pushups are back to being insanely hard and even though we worked on them lots in the last couple of classes I only feel a little bit of the strength coming back. Thats alright though! Its always been an uphill battle and this is only a small blip in the road to greater things!
