So happy it's Friday! Wish I could say I get to relax this weekend but......

Im still working on my pull ups. Haven't managed one yet, but I keep trying. Burpies and I remain enemies, getting better at sit ups, and push ups. Jump roping is a pain, I can jump rope eith an extra bounce, but struggling to move the jump rope faster and jump once.

I continue to work on my self defense, poomsaes, and kicks.

Off to complete my daily things.

I've been in martial arts since 2002. I started in tong soo do under Head master M.K. Lee in Pineville, N.C. After I broke my left hand during a colored belt exam, I switched to Taekwondo under Head master William Grady down in Pineville, N.C. I trained at Eagle Taekwondo for 8 years, earning my 3rd Dan. When Covid the dojang did not survive. I have now been training at King Tiger , North Charlotte location, under Grand Master Evins since June of 2023. I am excited to start my Masters journey, but very nervous at the same time. I look forward to meeting the other candidates.
