Some of the footwork I knew from Kenpo. Other steps I didn't. He then showed us the matching blocks for the strikes...and that's about the time I was REALLY wishing that I had drank water before class instead of coffee. ;)

By the time I got to working out with the Ruski, I felt totally dehydrated. And, of course, he continued to work the **** out of me :D :D
 
Sorry to interupt, but I just want to remind everyone that all of this is all my fault...

okay, Carol...please continue...sorry for the interuption. ;)
 
So......after about 10 minutes or so with the Ruski, the hour is up. Class should be over, right?

WRONG. We went from doing different moves to working in doing the strikes from high, low, and harimau positions....which meant doing the strikes from a standing position, from a deep stance, and then from down on one's knees....going right back to standing....then to deep...then to the knees...

After what seemed like forever doing this and after it felt like my hips and knees were getting totally blown out (which they weren't, it just felt like that)...it was back to the footwork.

How the **** am I supposed to be light on my feet when my legs feel like they are on fire???
 
So...the last part of training was trying to put the footwork AND the strikes together. Sounds like the most simple basic thing in the world, but I'm a noob so I'm messing it all up.

So...my legs are in pain from getting up and down off my knees. My arms are in pain from all the strikes plus the wavemaster work out, and now I have to put it all together and.....I'm not doing it right, which hurts the brain as well.

I was at it for probably about 20 minutes or so then the instructor had everyone wrap up. Mat time was about 1 hour 45 minutes. I was pretty frustrated with myself so I took out my frustrations on the nearest available heavy object. (which was....the Wavemaster, not the Ruski)

All in all, it was about 3 hours of hard training.

And as a result, I'm in pain.

And it is all Lisa's fault. I'm so grateful for that :D
 
Yes it was...I had to run downstairs as there is no smoking in the bedroom/PC room/Loft...

Ahhhhh: the pain of weakness leaving body, of growth. Hard earned pain. :)

Sounds like a great place to work out.

There's plenty more weakness that needs to get the heck out of my body :D :D

It really is a great place to work out. I've been looking all over Northern New England for the right school...and it was right here in my back yard all this time :)
