I just committed to test for my 5th dan on Mar 5th.
I'm ramping up my training considerably - about double what I have been doing lately. Still working through the soreness of increased training, but it's not too bad. I've been ramping up for the last month on my conditioning - so I'm feeling pretty good overall.
My goal is to keep improving on the conditioning side (weights, heavy bag, slow kicks, pad work), tune up my forms a bit, do a LOT of stretching to stay limber.
This will be my 3rd attempt to pass this test, and I'm feeling more determined than ever to crush it.

When I started, my first instructor asked me what my goal for martial arts was...
I told him that I figured I would probably only make it to Blue belt. LOL
Now I just want to challenge myself to keep moving forward.1 -
Moving goal posts 🤣🤣 You are pretty far from blue!1
