Hey, everybody! I'm new here, but I wanted to share an achievement I'm pretty excited about.

 

Tomorrow, I test for my red belt in Tae Kwon Do. Assuming I pass, that means I only have one belt before testing for my black belt. 

 

Over ten years ago, my wife talked me in to trying a tae kwon do class at a local school. I wound up dropping out before I took my first promotion test. Years later, I went back when my daughter wanted to start. It has been several years since I went back, and there have been times when I've taken a break for a few months. 

 

But I am really excited to reach this milestone.

"Easy things are seldom worth doing." - Quote from Firestar, one of my favorite books.

 

Fitness goal: Lower weight from 243 lbs to below 230, or lower body fat from 22% to below 20%.

 

Why fitness matters(my big why):
I want to be strong & fit so when I want to try or do any activity, I know my body will be able to do it.

Or, stated another way:

My level of fitness is directly proportional to the level of awesomeness I can achieve.

Just a quick update. I successfully got my red belt yesterday. So excited, but I guess I was wrong about only one belt before black. I have my red belt with a stripe and my cho dan bo, then I test for my black belt.
