Title: Learn from my mistakes people o_-
Post by: Zebrakorn on August 02, 2003, 07:03:01 am
I've been planning to get back into karate for a little while now and for the past week or so decided to buy a proper 4ft punch bag. I found a cool sports shop in town that sell all kinds of martial arts and training equipment, which is cool.

So I just went and bought it .. and then .. I picked it up o_0

God damnit those things are heavy!!! I'm not a big guy .. geez. So that was my first mistake. The second one was turning down a trolley they offered me!! I live in town .. can't be that difficult to carry something home, even if it does probably weight more than me!!!

Aaaaargh. I had to stop twice. The first stretch I had it on my shoulder but had to stop before it broke my shoulder and after that I couldn't physically lift it onto my shoulder so had to carry it.

I'm still shaking and sweating! o_0

I also think the hook won't hold that bag up for long .. argh.

So .. all in all .. a very well thought out purchase!!! =P

Anyway. I'm going to go die somewhere now.. and stick my head in a bucket of ice water or something.

Today's Lesson : Don't buy something you can't carry back =/

Well I figure there are two groups of people in this world: Those who make mistakes and then those who learn from them. I think I'm group one and you all should be taking notes ; )
