Wushu video bonanza, part deux: The broadsword routine where I hit myself in the face!
[Error: unknown template video]
You can probably figure out when I hit myself, even though I'm not facing the camera. (look for the flying hair) The routine kind of went downhill from there; I've done it better than that before.
And now, my current Evil Plan To Become Awesome (uh, physically, at least):
Wushu. Duh, of course. Must keep the training going.
Conditioning ahoy! I'm having Nathan and Colin ramp up the conditioning at the end of practice. They're well-conditioned from their parkour/tricking experience, and they'll probably surpass the vets before long, simply because of that. Hence, why we're now following their conditioning program! It'll help me improve, because I don't want to wimp out on conditioning in front of my team, and it'll also benefit the lazy people on the team, who don't do conditioning unless they're made to do it at practice. It's kicking my ass so far, so that can't be a bad sign. ::rotfl::
Running with intermittent sprints. Running will help with my cardiovascular health, of course, and will help extra pounds come off. Hopefully my lung capacity will get better, too; I've historically had breathing issues in a lot of the sports I've done. The addition of sprints at various parts of the running should help my wushu, especially for those times when I need to be all explosive.
Eat better. If any of these fails, it'll be this one. Whenever I get too busy and too drained on energy, out comes the drive-thru and the instant meals and the comfort food. It's all because of the convenience, really; I hate the way my body feels after eating something greasy and awful, and I'd have no problem eating well if it didn't take so much TIME. :p But, I shall do my best.
I'll stick with this for a month, and see where it gets me. I'm not sure if I'll be able to wushu after the end of this month, what with all the moving shenanigans, but hopefully I'll figure out something to keep my flabby ass moving, at least until I *can* wushu again.
On a completely unrelated note, I kind of love Alanis Morrisette for this: My Humps parody song/video. Sooooo funny.
That's all.
