It's been harder getting back into it because of the 5 year break i unintentionally took. It was a lot easier to memorize my forms in high school when it was all i had to think about! My brain is so full these days!
So, it may take me a lot longer to get my 3rd degree black belt than normal but regardless of that, i'm getting to exercise at least 2 times a week more than i was before i started!
