Now Playing: The bird and the bee
Yawn. I can't seem to get going today. Last night I went to Body Combat, followed by TKD, which might explain it, I suppose. The weird thing was, I had myself all psyched up for the mad double cardio workout and it actually didn't seem that hard. Maybe it just didn't catch up with me until today :-)
Anyway, Combat was ok, although I'm still really not convinced by the new routine. We're doing Combat 28 and it seems very repetitive. I miss the old style combos we used to do with 3 or 4 moves put together. This one seems much more like 8 jabs, 8 jump kicks, a bit boring and not so nicely choreographed. Still, maybe it will grow on me.
TKD was great as usual. We did a lot of jumping kicks. I am really, really bad at them :-) I think I must have extra gravity or something. I just can't seem to get off the ground! You know that thing where you jump in the air and bring your knees up to your chest? Can't do that either. The knees barely make it up to 90 degrees. I'd love to get better at this stuff, cos it would be really cool to be able to do proper spinning jump kicks - ones that actually make it more than 2 inches off the ground would be progress - but I'm not sure how you work on that kind of thing. Is it cos I lack muscles, or is it just technique? I shall have to ask Mike & Andy (the TKD teachers) on Sunday.
Dave is out today with a client. I'm hopeless at working when he's not here. Which is probably why I'm blogging at 3.30 in the afternoon :-)
This seems to be quite a boring blog entry; must be due to my complete lack of energy today. Here's a joke to brighten it up:
A man goes to the zoo and there is nothing there except for one small dog.
It was a Shih Tzu.
