Well I didn`t get around to spending time with my friend Richard Simmons today after all instaed I tried out a sparring class at the dojo, I`m slowly learning sparring drills and stuff and felt that I might be ready to try it out, well!!!!! It was awesome!!! It`s like a combination of tae- boe, kickboxing, karate moves all mixed together.....The warm up was the most intense I`ve had at karate so far, the newest sensei started us off by jogging half a mile, doing 50 jumping jacks, 25 crunches, 25 push ups, 25 squats and this other drill where laying on your back you first raise your head of the ground then add one arm, and the the other , then one leg and the other, then you spread your legs wide hold then close them , open, close, hold then slowly lower one leg, then the other, one arm then the other finally your head, relax then start again!!! He then followed with the proper stretches before we started kicking and punching drills....What a blast....Good thing we get to wear the proper gear .....I swear that when I finish a karate class I`m a bit smaller from getting rid of water retention...My pants always seem to fit loser...Anyway when I use to go to the gym a few years back I did lose some weight but since I was still eating quite a fatty diet I was a smaller version of myself, I truly can see the differance now I`m losing inches of my legs with all those side kicks, back kicks, round kicks...So when I got home I visited my closet and tried the jeans I had bought a few years ago after going down to a size 14 well they fit so nice, they fit better then when I bought them in the hip,butt and leg area, I still need to work on those love handles but hey one step at a time..And like that song says"The future so bright I gotta to wear shades" Well anyway I`m starting to come off my naturakl high from exercises and will be off to bed...Have a great day----leanbutt
