I have recently picked up on kickboxing, and dang! I cannot believe how intense it can be! But for me, it's a good type of "intense". It's the type of feeling where your body feels like it's going to drop or burn up into ashes and yet you want to keep going, and going, and going! Oh man...it just feels really good.

I haven't felt this good about myself, and/or my body in a while. I know that fitness (having been in many sports in the past before my injuries) is a way for our bodies to relax, and usually makes our lives more less-stressful, however there's just something about doing cardio fitness stuff with Kickboxing that is much more appealing than maybe running on the treadmill, or running in general.

I have been doing it every morning now (on the weekdays) for the past two weeks and man, I can say I have notice improvements on not only with my stamina, but also with the shape of my body (I'm actually bulking up without lifting any weights)

I really miss kickboxing. I keep telling myself to go back but I can't find the right club around here.

Wow, that's cool! I've been really thinking about taking it at my college next quarter, it seems like it could be a lot of fun. I lift weights right now, but that doesn't even compare to what cardio and full body movement will do for your body and muscles. I'm glad to hear that you're feeling good about yourself, also.

Thanks, you should really look into it. It's great!

I have only started to lift weights, not so much to bulk up but to strength up my arms and legs.

Dude definitely! I started to bulk up a bit too while I was doing kickboxing. It reminds me of this work out program called "Insanity" by Shan T. The whole non-stop cardio thing. It's a great feeling.

UFC rocks btw
