...and she learns some boxing - yeah baby!

Ah man ...

is there any better feeling in life than learning something new , and feeling an affinity for it , like you were born to do this thing?

I just discovered that I like to hit things.

Inanimate things , that are shaped a bit like giant almonds and placed on my trainers hands (that's Cory Bear , personal trainer at Fenix Fitness Fountain Gate) .

I just did some boxing yesterday in my training session - first time ever , and I loved it.

What an awesome way to get a cardio workout without running, jumping, rowing or cycling ?

Jab, uppercut and hook. That's what I learnt yesterday - and I punched like crazy for 30 minutes . With some really tough push ups in there as well ( who would have thought that it would HARDER to do a push up with boxing gloves on ? )

It was awesome !!!!

I never realised that hitting something could be so cathartic .... fabulous stuff .

So looking forward to my next training session - I hope I get to hit things again ....

There are a surprisingly large number of vegetables on this list. And I eat as much of them as like, as often as I like. This is known as the GREEN list. Meats and most animal fats are also on the GREEN list, but, and heres the other ...

Thoughts on my Official Aussie-fication

Aussie-fication. That process whereby one becomes a naturalised citizen of the Aussie Aussie Aussie , Oi Oi Oi Universe. Not to be confused with a simple citizenship ceremony. Those are so 1990 darl. I am an Aussie (with some sad but ingrained Saffer DNA , it's a tough life mate). And I almost have the certificate to prove it. Aussie-fication begins in earnest the first time you use the word mate. Sincerely and without satire, sarcasm or feeling self-conscious.
