Weightlifting

So I've been on this journey to find something I like to do. Something for myself. 

I've joined Crossfit and loved it, but I'm not particularly great at it. So I tried Olympic  Weightlifting. 

And I love it. 

My coach is amazing. He totally understands my need to compete and drive for perfection. And yet he laughs at me all the time to keep me from thinking about things too much. 

And the best part is that I can do this as I am. I don't have to change. 

It's not that I don't still do martial arts, I do. But I feel an obligation to teach and help with martial arts. And that means I'm not doing it just for me. Weightlifting is for me. 

I'm loving it and can't wait to see how much I improve over the next year.
