The Kung Fu Body - Jenny: Day 87 - Ballet
http://thekungfubody-jenny.blogspot.com/2010/12/day-87-ballet.html
Wednesday, December 15, 2010. Day 87 - Ballet. That's my ballet teacher in that picture, Carla. Beautiful, yes? Ballet is all over the place right now. It's nutcracker season; Black Swan is in theaters; and a new book on ballet, Apollo's Angels, is getting rave reviews, so I thought I'd share this NPR article with you, The Tutu's Tale.

The Kung Fu Body - Renfield: git some!
http://thekungfubody-renfield.blogspot.com/2010/12/git-some.html
Thursday, December 9, 2010. Did my weekly workout with Patrick: awesomeness. Knocked out the first set of 10 pull-ups easy, the next 10 doable, and the last 10 to utter failure. Words cannot describe the awesomeness of a solid core. Past couple weeks I have been walking to and from work; 45 minutes each way. Tonight I walked home (munching on a baked sweet potato), after running 3 klicks and doing my KFB workout at the gym. Yup" he replied. " Day 85. Thought so. I'm KFB.". December 9, 2010 at 3:56 AM.

The Kung Fu Body - Renfield: Jumpkicks suck
http://thekungfubody-renfield.blogspot.com/2010/12/jumpkicks-suck.html
Thursday, December 9, 2010. More accurately: I suck at jump kicks. Especially near six minutes of. Them, particularly when combod with a starting kick. I guess technically I am jump kicking, because both feet are in fact. Off the ground at the same time for a very, very split second. Then again, is it really a jump if my head stays at the same height. Would be cooler if I could claim to be doing that on. Purpose. Sadly that is not the case. With honey. And cinnamon.

The Kung Fu Body - Renfield: Initial final thoughts
http://thekungfubody-renfield.blogspot.com/2010/12/initial-final-thoughts.html
Friday, December 17, 2010. Afterwards we checked progress: vertical jump higher by several centimeters, flexibility way, way up, core solid with abs and torso feeling solid and looking good. The real test will be tomorrow, when I take my promotion exam. Been gearing up for it all year, and in fact one of the main reasons I started pcp and kfb was to be prepared for this test. Will write more about it tomorrow, but I already know that pass or fail I will never be more prepared than I am now.

The Kung Fu Body - Renfield: day one...again
http://thekungfubody-renfield.blogspot.com/2010/09/its-on.html
Monday, September 20, 2010. I feel like we have seen this movie before. It was a few short months ago when I finished PCP. So here we are, ready to get it on again. The main goal is simple: I wanna look good nekkid. I want my six pack back. Had it looking pretty good at the end of. PCP, want it again and forever. Wanna knock out 10 pull-ups straight. Doesn't have to be easy or. Anything, just consistently doable. 10 hand-stand pushups. I doubt I can balance like Patrick, so. Against a wall is fine. A 90 ...

The Kung Fu Body - Mikhael: Day 7
http://thekungfubody-mikhael.blogspot.com/2010/09/day-7.html
Sunday, September 26, 2010. Gotta buy a ball tonight for the punching test. Did the full ten minutes of stretches today. My friend Laura was visiting and I had her try, but she had to stop after five. The meditation was nice, it was enjoyable to sit and think for a full ten minutes and I found myself stop thinking about the time after a while. Leave me some motivation and insight, dudes!

The Kung Fu Body - Mikhael: Day 5
http://thekungfubody-mikhael.blogspot.com/2010/09/day-5.html
Friday, September 24, 2010. Skipped workout this morning, felt WAAYYYYY. Too woozy from the pain meds to do anything requiring coordination. Saving it for this evening. My friend is visiting, and I'm gonna show her what the workouts involve. So it works out, assuming I don't fall on my ass. I'll keep you updated. I also have BlogPress installed on my iPhone now, so I can easily blog on the go. September 24, 2010 at 11:51 AM. Uh-oh, blogging on the go! Now its getting interesting. The Kung Fu Body.

The Kung Fu Body - Jenny: Day 78 - Ah, cruel, frigid Universe!
http://thekungfubody-jenny.blogspot.com/2010/12/day-78-ah-cruel-frigid-universe.html
Monday, December 6, 2010. Day 78 - Ah, cruel, frigid Universe! I hit the button to light the pilot light, it lights a weak little flame that isn't sufficient to even start the heater. So, I go back outside, flip the switch. Come back in. Same deal. A sad excuse for a pilot light and no heat. Apparently, I have two empty tanks of gas. Where is the back-up tank I ordered in 2009? No heat. The Universe knows, doesn't it? December 8, 2010 at 7:34 AM. The only consistent rule in the universe is: all things te...

The Kung Fu Body - Jenny: Day 89B - Still sick
http://thekungfubody-jenny.blogspot.com/2010/12/day-89b-still-sick.html
Friday, December 17, 2010. Day 89B - Still sick. Send me healing vibes, people. My body is pain, total and complete pain. If my fever reaches 103, I will break down and take ibuprofen but until then, I'm covering up and sweating it out. Eat, sleep, eat, sleep, eat, catch up on Fringe, sleep. PS My dreaded goodbye has come and passed. There's some pain in my heart lingering from that as well. All is ouch. December 17, 2010 at 2:36 PM. Sucky in every way. Take care and keep communicating. The Kung Fu Body.

The Kung Fu Body - Michael S: The messy November
http://thekungfubody-michaels.blogspot.com/2010/11/messy-november.html
Tuesday, November 23, 2010. OK folks. I know I'm silent, but I'm still here. First, kudos and deep bow to Ren, Jen and Pen, I mean Patrick, for showing up so regularly here. I appreciate that. I'm now waiting to fly back from the UK, where I've just been attending the funeral of my friend Anton. Back in Canada for 3 days, before flying back to the UK for some previously scheduled client work. In fact Patrick, seriously, is that something I should do? November 24, 2010 at 2:53 PM.
