savedbygrace Posted August 10, 2006 Posted August 10, 2006 I have many other hobbies like hunting, fishing, camping..ect.......but I am SO GLAD I decided to get back into MA. I have class tonight and I cant wait. I just wish my flexabilty would hurry up and get better... It hinders me in doing things I'd really like to be able to do, but I know it takes time.......anyway I sure am glad I got back in it........... "Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me." John 14:6
cathal Posted August 10, 2006 Posted August 10, 2006 I agree! This is one of the best things I've ever been in. I'm healthier, more alert, more focused, more active...it's fantastic. .The best victory is when the opponent surrendersof its own accord before there are any actualhostilities...It is best to win without fighting.- Sun-tzu

Mischievousjoe Posted August 10, 2006 Posted August 10, 2006 yeah for hard training! seriously it's addictive once you start to see the benefits i think... I went to my allergist today, and while i used to have decreased lung capacity due to asthma it's now way above average. Just one of many benefits to be had!

alsey Posted August 10, 2006 Posted August 10, 2006 yeah, MA are pretty cool "Gently return to the simple physical sensation of the breath. Then do it again, and again, and again. Somewhere in this process, you will come face-to-face with the sudden and shocking realization that you are completely crazy. Your mind is a shrieking, gibbering madhouse on wheels." - ven. henepola gunaratana

Zorbasan Posted August 11, 2006 Posted August 11, 2006 i remember when i got back in to MA after an extended brake, it just felt so right. tho i still dont think im as good as i was before, but i am heading towards it. i also find that my understanding is improving now as well, not just the technique.welcome back to the MA world. you will wish that you never stopped Now you use head for something other than target.

It hinders me in doing things I'd really like to be able to do, but I know it takes time.......anyway I sure am glad I got back in it........... Yes, it's good to be back!!! I took a year and a half off, my car got hit by a dump truck on the way home from my brown belt test in May of o4, had back surgery, a fractured vertabrae slipped severely, and I have been back for three months now. If you want to increase your flexibility sooner there is a book I love, Ultimate Flexibility by Sang H. Kim very good and the stretches work well.Glad you are back and hope your class went well. "All your life you are told the things you cannot do. They will say you're not good enough, strong enough or talented enough; you're the wrong height or the wrong weight or the wrong type to play this or achieve this.

bushido_man96 Posted August 11, 2006 Posted August 11, 2006 Glad you are back into it. I had a layoff once, and have regretted it ever since! It wasn't a year long, but it was too long. It'll come back. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com
