2012 Martial Arts Goals

[DWx]

Generic lose weight get fitter resolution plus keep working on my flexibility as I saw some improvement this year.

Also want to work on my forms for competition. Usually place 3rd but can't seem to just go one better and move up to 2nd.

Got to improve my running too. Being hounded to do the local half marathon as my school enters a team every year. Someone from the club went from running no miles a week to completing the whole thing so the rest of us are being badgered into doing the same as it'll be "good for us". So maybe I'll do it or I might not want to increase my run distance anyway so that's what I want to work on.

Roll on 2012

Get atleast 2 of my students through their Shodan (1st Dan) Blackbelts. Grade my Assistant Instructor through his next Level.

Take my own promotion grading with some senior Grades I know.

Increase my student base/open a new dojo in another area.

And be a good Christian, Amen

I actually plan on starting to weight train now that I've hit one of my fitness goals (down 75 pounds since I went back to TKD last year. Now I've sort of plateaued and need to step up the training). 2nd Dan testing can probably happen in a month to 3 months too and I'd like to compete a few times this year.

I still don't make any resolutions...haven't for years.

However, if I was to make one, it'd be something like this...

>Continue to improve the betterment of every Shindokan student.

first off I plan on earning my 1st Dan... scheduled to test for it in March. There are some requirements that I'm not sure I'll be able to satisfy this testing cycle, so I may have to push it off until June.

I need to get off of my butt and start some sort of routine where I regularly do some sit ups. I've always struggled with sit ups, and I know I need to put forth a lot more effort in order to get to a point where I can pump out 75+ like I want to be.

I also want to continue my training, so that I'm not feeling quite as lost as I have been of late. My forms I know can stand some real improvement, as well as many of my basic techniques

Another goal. Later in the year, I plan to go to the Beat the Crap Out of Cancer event. It's like Relay for Life, except with less running and more hitting each other with sticks. Proceeds go to American Cancer Society.

Well my first post for 2012, I hope that everyone achieves their goals and I hope to meet up with as many of you as I can this year
