How I did it: It took a long time to decide on the right tattoo. I wanted it to be meaningful and beautiful. When I found the right symbol (will post a pic later) I waited a year to get it, just to be sure.My friend was going to get his tattoo touched up by the same artist who inked it originally. Since he'd had a tattoo done there before, I knew this artist would be more than able to handle my (simple) tattoo.Say what you will, I hav… Read how I did it…
How I did it: I biked to and from work every day. Not only did I get legs of steel, but I got in the habit of drinking more water all the time.Since my job changed, and I (thankfully) no longer sit in one place all day, I haven't been biking and thus havent been drinking as much. I want to get back into it again! Read how I did it…
How I did it: I took lessons with a teacher who made me laugh, and challenged my skill without ever making me feel inadequate. I never feel ashamed during the lesson, even when I forget to practice during the week.I rarely forget to practice now, since playing brings such pleasure, relaxation. I can play out my emotions on it. If I feel angry or sad, tense or remorseful, I can play the feelings out, and feel better after. I'm re… Read how I did it…
Today I woke up at 6am, drove to meet with a training partner (4th degree black belt) and practiced for 2 hours.
30 minutes of forms to warm up, one hour of techniques, 30 minutes bag work.
What an excellent workout!
Next week I’ll have some specific techniques to work on, along with boxing combos. And more water.
Last year, I didn’t start with a goal, I just wanted to bike to work all year. I did it from March to September: 2767.5 miles.
Now I have a goal for next year.
Today I practiced 30 techniques with my aunt (she is also a black belt, at 48!) and ran form 5.
