New Addiction of Choice
I'm officially an addict. (Nora!!! AHHHH! What did you DO to me! haha!!)
I woke up this morning, and I was thinking about this climbing problem I was working on last night at the gym. That's like my favorite problem so far because it made me feel like a ballerina on a wall. I understood where my center of gravity was; I understood what my extended right leg was supposed to do, which was to keep my posture balanced and as close to the wall as possible (and pretty) .... When I was in that position, I felt soo at home. I just can't wait to get back on it again in a few days (hip join and ankles need rest) and make my way through the whole problem.
The rest of the day at the gym went well, too. I learned to swing my weight around (you know, like how a monkey would) so that I don't wear my arm muscles down. I learned to just hang and rely on my skeletal structure naturally. I learned not to think too much and just trust my body and take risks (I just need to learn how to trust my foot holding more -- TRUST MY LEGS!) .... It's just been a great experience. And thankfully, there are so many supportive people there willing to teach me and challenge me to climb to the top, literally.
Wow. I can't believe I'm involved in a sport! (other than, say, singing opera -- hey, it takes more than you think!) hahaha!
