So I started my Wu Xing Ba Fa (Five Animal Style) Shaolin Gong Fu again today after not doing anything for over a year now. It was really good to see Sifu Tracy Fleming again. Sifu has a great spirit and disposition, very positive in spite of any adversity.
Class was excellent and I didn't suffer as much as I thought I would after my hiatus. The kicks were definitely my weakest point since I've got these giraffe legs to swing around.
My endurance surprised me but my cardio was as rough as ever. Sometimes I wonder if I have exercise induced asthma. I think after 2 months of steady, diligent practice I'll be back to where I was before I fell off my exercise.
I'm looking forward to this journey again as it's one of my favorites. Remember, to taste sweet you must eat bitter.

Good for you!
hi - this is actually about a post you wrote over a year ago - would you be willing to sell me a Unicorn Butter t-shirt? That logo is hilarious!
