Punchdrunk Posted December 20, 2001 Posted December 20, 2001 Osu! I registered with this forum a while ago but the events in the world moved fun things like this to the back burner for a while. Now I can introduce myself and hopefully interact with some committed, inspiring and a little bit nutty people on this excellent forum. I'm a 37 year old, married guy(11 years). I dropped about 65 pounds over the last two and 1/2 years, ran my first marathon in October2001, and took my first belt exam in Shidokan in December 2001. It's a pretty rough style, stressing conditioning and sparring (somewhere between Kyokushin and Enshin in grabbing). I did a fair amount of amature boxing from 10 to 22 years old and this is a lot more punishing. My wife and I act for a living. I'm looking forward to posting with you great people. Be well One cannot choose to be passive without the option to be aggressive.

KickChick Posted December 31, 2001 Posted December 31, 2001 Welcome to KarateForums Punchdrunk! The more the merrier here! We can use your input as far as body conditioning for the martial arts.... it seems you have been successful in that area.
Punchdrunk Posted January 1, 2002 Author Posted January 1, 2002 Thanks for the warm welcome folks. HappyNew Year! KSN Doug - my wife and I do theatre, commercials, voiceovers, training fims, and the occasional film or TV show that comes to town. Just middle class working Hams. I'll be doing a bit as a priest in the upcoming Tom Hanks film "Road to Perdition". You can hear me in Latin in a couple scenes but don't blink. Kickchick-you're very kind but if I hadn't eaten my way out of shape I wouldn't have had to learn to lose the weight! Osu! One cannot choose to be passive without the option to be aggressive.
KickChick Posted January 3, 2002 Posted January 3, 2002 Happens to the best of us ... but at least you learned! ...also a Sade fan I assume??
