ntrprnr 0 #1 April 13, 2007 Anyone else do it? Since I can't run, I'm doing it like, 5x a week. Good LORD, I forgot how much fun it is.

It's amazing to come home and just not be angry at ANYTHING! Are you old enough to remember the mini-series "Rich Man, Poor Man"? Ed Asner was the father and whenever he got angry or frustrated, he went out to the backyard and pummeled a heavy bag he kept there. I always thought that was an excellent way to reduce domestic violence."There are only three things of value: younger women, faster airplanes, and bigger crocodiles" - Arthur Jones.

Muenkel 0 #10 April 13, 2007 I work with a heavy bag periodically. It is a great stress reliever. Not a good idea for me to spar with anyone right now, even if I am wearing a helmet.Chris _________________________________________ Chris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GARYC24 3 #13 April 13, 2007 My Wed. night class (combat TKD is sparring w/chest pad, legs, arms headgear from 7-8 Then after the 1-step TKD sparring we put on sparring head gear (boxing) and boxing gloves, no chest pad; just mouth guard and cup and go at it. Basically for real! Even take downs..these are 2-3 minutes I'm am usually beat after regular class and this really shows how much you got left in ya to fight. There a female BB instructor there and I punch her as hard as I can..she does the same, too. I have only had 1 bloody nose so far! I love the workout!

LisaM 0 #14 April 13, 2007 I don't box but I do spar. I have a ways to go to be decent at it, but they say I am doing fine for my level. Truly, I hate doing it. But when I am finished, I am glad I i did it. I have competed a bit and the adrenaline rush is amazing. Last year I won a fight with a broken finger! Good thing I didn't know it was broken, I am such a girl! ~ Lisa ~ Do you Rigminder? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Muenkel 0 #15 April 13, 2007 On the topic of Boxing; I recently watched the movie 'Cinderella Man'. What a great flick that was. If you haven't seen it, it's worth a rent. Chris _________________________________________ Chris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Richards 0 #17 April 14, 2007 QuoteSince I can't run, I'm doing it like, 5x a week. Good LORD, I forgot how much fun it is. It's amazing to come home and just not be angry at ANYTHING! Tried it once. Wasn't very good but it was amazing exercise. Would prefer to just watch it now. My biggest handicap is that sometimes the hole in the front of my head operates a tad bit faster than the grey matter contained within. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
