There's no real place for forum introductions, and I usually don't do them myself whenever I join a new community but I figured I'd go ahead. I've been watching this site for some time now, it's always kept me motivated and inspired.

I work as a manager and instructor at a taekwondo school, and I love my job. We're a pure WTF school.

As far as tricking goes, I'm somewhat new to doing it myself. I've been involved in taekwondo for 4 years (about halfway to my second degree) and I've got a pretty solid basis for taekwondo techniques, but I'm only now starting to really take it to the next level as far as tricking goes. 540 is my newest trick that I've been getting down, not quite nailing it yet but it's coming.

I've just now started supplimenting and eating healthier HARDCORE. I've always been really lightweight with a fast metabolism so I would eat anything and everything without care as to what was in it or how many calories. Lots of calories and protein was all I looked for. But I finally spent $86 at the GNC today on whey protein and creatine for my workouts.

I'm married and I have a 7 month old baby, who can already almost walk by himself (it's all in the genes!). I spend all my time with my family and doing taekwondo.

Yeah, there's more, but this is even more than I wanted to post initially! There's just so much on this site that's helped inspire me, so it's about damn time I joined up!

And so I made a new account. Legendary is the account name I use for various accounts, but I didn't think it was appropriate for this forum (especially considering I am very new to tricking)

Apchagi is the korean word for front snap kick, one of the most basic kicks in taekwondo. Seeing as how I'm at the basics of tricking now, it feels just right.

Done, thanks. This isn't exactly how I wanted to get started on this forum, but that's how it goes sometimes I guess.

Anyways! Thanks for the welcome guys! I have a feeling this is the start of a beautiful relationship.

Thanks, it only took my sister 83 tries to snap the picture at the right moment. The next day I couldn't walk.

crowd awakener is when you do a 540 set up and as you do the split kick you should be turning...watch this vid, at 3:55 Anis does a combo, axe wheel to crowd awakener to gainer full.
