Stubborn as a mule
"Stubborn as a mule" have you heard the expression before? ... Well that's what some of us can be like haha ;) . We either try, so we get a good mark or try because we might be failing, but what happened to doing it for your own good.
Well, I know I can be stubborn, but when it comes to being fit I take care of my health and do it for my benefit. "Nobodies ever 100%, but the least they can do is try" -Wayne Li.
Today's fitness was good we had 10 stations, four run throughs In 40 mins ! There was also a rest station where we could test are pulse and see where are our hearts rates were at. I'm going to be honest, in 10 secs , the highest my pulse got today was 22. Maybe it was because I wasn't trying hard enough, or I'm used to more vigorous types of training. Anywho-->>
MY GOAL: get heart rate up HIGHER :)
Something WE COULD CHANGE : I think half way through we should've changed the stations up a little, because people couldn't think of new things to try or they got bored.

Ad Vitam Paramus? what it means to me ?
AD VITAM PARAMUS
First off , Your probably wondering what this means and well what language it is?
Ad Vitam Paramus, is latin and it simply means " We are preparing for life". To many it may have a broad, very open understanding, but to me its personal.
Why I chose this ?
Its a motto "we" live by when we train. We as in myself and the others that train in Seikido Martial arts. The first thing people think is " ooo she/he knows a bunch of punches and kick, big deal" but in all honestly were different, its more than that. Siekido isnt just a place you go 2-4 times week where you learn kicks and punches , its a place where you learn how to fight and protect yourself. It is also a place where we make contact with ourselves. Our fears, anxietys, reaction and habits. Its a place where we can learn a great deal about ourselves in a short time about who we are and also in a sense how we react in the world. The total concentration and discipline required to learn martial arts carries over into daily life. SO, this is why we use " AD VITAM PARAMUS", and this is why I use it because we are ALWAYS preparing and getting ready for life, no matter what. May it be in school, in martial arts and in P.E.

First Fitness Testing of the Semester
Date: Febuary 1st, 2013
So looking back at the first fitness testing of the semester, it doesnt look too bad, there will be plenty of time to improve. Yet, reflecting back on it, I couldve pushed myself way harder. I guess I just gave in too quickly and in all honestly when these fitness tests come around, I get a bit trepidatious about how I'm going to do. As the semester goes by, my hopes are I get over that, and just relax.
Results:
* I didnt get around to all the tests*
