Hey people,
Today was my second lesson in Shaolin Kung Fu and can safely say its the hardest thing I've ever done in my life. I always considered myself fit but I feel dead right, and kinda beaten up, thank god mums here to make me tea. :)
My knuckles are covered in blood, lol, had to do 100 knuckle push ups on a hard wooden floor and kicked/stampted on each time I struggled, had to do splits (well, not so harsh on this one, but still pushed me down, felt like my nuts were gonna rip and fall off. Then loads of other kicks, punches and stretches plus sitting in the chair posistion for over 10mins!
Just over 2 hours of non stop intense training, and instuctor says afterwards "Dont worry, its not usually this easy, just theres a lot of new people here today" .. and he wasn't joking! .... Dad wants to go sort him out ... wont get far :P
Thing is though, I have had so much fun in ages!. Can now kick true ass, am super strong and mentally fit, well, will be eventually .... :D
Anyway, reason Im writing this is because I want to know if anyone else does Shaolin Kung Fu here? ... would be nice to know someone in the same situation and give each other advice, see where we're at etc. :)
