Get in Shape!!

Hi!
Wow, 4 more days until New Years! Time flys!
Today's picture is me holding a "kettlebell", a weight that is used in Russian Special Forces and American Special Forces for training. My Dad gave it to me for Christmas. It really does the work! I use it almost everyday, and my arms are sore today. It was a workout trying to take that picture!
Mom and Dad also got me a "WiiFit". It looks like a weight scale, it actually is a high tech scale! It tells BMI (Body Mass Index), and your weight. It has 4 balance sensors that senses which way you're swaying. Also "Fit" stands for fitness, so it's used for being is shape! It has "Yoga", a stretch or balance exercise that started from India, muscle training, aerobic exercises, and balance games. For Yoga and muscle training, it's just like an interactive exercise DVD! It will show you the moves one by one, and a little screen that shows you where your center should be. Being Nintendo, of course it has games, that are fun!!
That's all for today!
I will try to blog once more this year!
But, just in case I can't, HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
See ya!

Aikido! 合気道

Hi!
It's been a long time since I blogged! I should keep track of it.
Wow, it's already December! It's 13 more days until Christmas too! We have to put our Christmas tree out.
Today's picture is me doing an "Ukemi", a way of falling down or rolling and not getting hurt. The "Ukemi" is very useful in a lot of cases. A lot of stuntmen in movies use this too. The man on the right is my new teacher. I'm going to night time classes on Tuesdays too. So, I have 2 classes now.
I've been learning Aikido for 4 years I think. I had some Judo lessons before Aikido but some how It didn't last that long.
I'm catching up with the high level people little by little. I took an test recently for gradeing up, and I hope I passed it!
It got pretty cold from the start of December. The weather was great since yesterday. The weather person said it's going to rain again tonight, and going to be an pretty rainy day tomorrow. Oh well...
That's all for today!
Happy Holidays!
See ya.
