It's great to see how far we've all come in the last 10 weeks, but if you really want to burst your bubble, try going to see a Cirque du Soleil show.
This was the major mistake I made with my life yesterday evening. Those people are incredible - the sheer discipline it must take to get in the kind of shape where you can do a plank on one hand without a fucking floor under your feet is phenomenal; to chuck other acrobats around like they're confetti; and let's not even get started on the contortionist or the trapeze people.
Anyway, this is about personal goal setting. Maybe I'll set mine to be about 1/5th as fit & strong as one of those dudes in a year.
Oh, and at least they have clowns too to remind us of how much shitter we could be too!
Those circus people are freaks of nature. Completely bendy in places that just are unnatural.
ReplyDeleteGreat show though. We went to KOOZA a month or so ago here in Tokyo. Was brilliant.
A lifetime of training. They are amazing for sure, but we can't even begin to compare.
ReplyDeleteI've seen Cirque a few times now, the best was 'O' in Vegas, highly recommended to all; even the stage is a miracle!
You'd also have to learn either Russian or Chinese or French Noel
