FINALLY went to Tae Kwon Do. I would kick myself for not going sooner, but Genki-san's 2nd dan black belt testing was just this past weekend, and honestly he needed to focus on that. And as i suspected, he was paired with me as a one-on-one instructor tonight. I thought that might happen, so i'm glad i waited.
I am sore and tired and have some bruises from holding the kick-target poorly and getting kicked square in the hand by Genki-san, but i'll take at least 50 % of the responsiblity for that.
In related news, i feel a lot more than 11 years older than the last time i worked out with a martial arts club regularly, but i also know myself well enough to know that i'll regain a lot of stamina and conditioning in the first month. And then i'll plateau for a few years :|
But yeah, feels damn good to be back!
tkd,
exercise
