hawkflight 0 #1 February 9, 2004 hello all.....I passed level C yesterday.....and in an effort to become a better skydiver I had started a diet, started going to the gym and started taking yoga classes about 6 weeks ago......positive effects so far:...well i lost 25 pounds in the past 6 weeks ......the student rig fits much better now....... the yoga has taught me some great relaxation excercises that help in the plane on ride to altitutude and as a result of the the stretching exercises I found it easier to control my body during freefall not "easy" just easier.and I just feel better in general......well I don't want to sound too melodramatic or spend too much time on my soapbox but skydiving has truly changed my life for the better....who knows I might even stop beating my wife and kids....................................

HRHSkyPrincess 0 #5 February 10, 2004 Skydiving is a very life affirming event. You're on the right path...and if I hear of you beating anyone (except yourself, heh) I'll send Guido to 'reprogram' your thinking! Purple Skies, D. :)***************** Attitude is everything!
