As the title implies, my cloths have started to have a different feeling. It’s actually kind of fun. I put on cloths and think, this didn’t use to be like this. Sweet.
So yeah working out has been good for me. I’m looking better; feeling better and generally just enjoying the sensation of working out. But yeah, it’s been five good months of working out, and I’m not stopping.

I’ve just started watching the Colbert Report and these two quotes were sad last night (I’m watching off of DVR).
From “The Word”:
You’ll be placed on a reservation somewhere in the United States, but not in America
The tag line on screen: Massachusetts (Brilliant!)
And on the Ohio State vs Florida BCS Game:
I couldn’t be happier with this matchup. After all, these schools represent the two states that gave us President George W Bush’s two election victories. It is no wonder that electronic voting put them on top.
So funny.
And I swear, I will be making a real post soon. I promise.

I read this on ESPN just now, and all I can think is how good of a choice this is.

So remember when I said I was looking to get back into martial arts? Well, I had my first Kung Fu class last night. And all in all, things went well. I enjoyed the class and I got a good workout. And I didn’t feel to sore afterwards.
Then I woke up this morning. Oy, I am sore. I’m more sore in one hour of Kung Fu than I was after a full day of marching with the band. I actually didn’t go full out with my workout today. I just did some light riding on a stationary bike with some moderate stretching.
So yeah, Kung Fu was fun. I’m going to give it a couple more weeks before I commit, but for now, it’s fun. And it’s a seriously good workout.
As a side note, while walking towards the T from the dojo (I need to look up the chinese word for training hall), I ran into my uddy Rob Anderson, which was pretty cool. We grabbed dinner and caught up. So yeah, pretty fun overall. I just need to be less sore.

So it would seem that my Path to Fitness posts have kind of dried up. Which, if I hadn’t gotten myself into a pretty steady workout routine, would have defeated there intended purpose. But yeah, I’m fully into a workout habit.
So have I seen any progress? Yes and no. As I said earlier, I’m definitely feeling the effects. I’m clearly in better shape than I was when I started back in July. I’m sore less often. My joints all hurt less. And I generally feel better.
At the same time, I still don’t look the way I want to. I’m getting there, and I can see the beginings, but I’m still not as cut as I’d like to be. *shrugs*
At least there is progress, so I can’t complain too much.
