This is probably not good, but my husband says mine would be "the PUNISHER". He does really think I am nice, but obviously, I must have a pissy mean streak.:o Bako "the PUNISHER" gymrat!

[Ivan]

haha thats great.

see problem for me is i dont get angry very easily...
but i talk ALOT of trash... i can be pretty witty on the spot.
so i have to learn to back it up! cant talk then get beat up!

[bakogymrat]

See, I have a mouth that gets me into trouble. Luckily, I have learned to control it the older I get, but I think I am a tough guy. Literally, I am only 5'2", and when I am at the gym I puff up like one of the guys. I will even talk crap if one of 'em gets in my way, or tries to talk to me in the middle of my set. My honey just rolls his eyes, and reminds me that I am a little girl and they could step on me. He's got my back though! :D

[Ivan]

ya, see im kinda tall for my weight, im like 5'8 and only 130 so i look pretty defined, but im just skinny haha. but ya, im not a real super serious person (if you couldnt tell from other posts) which is kind of a problem when it comes to training, i need to work on the whole discipline factor.

[Kimberly]

One of my instructors was 5'2" and she's handed me my ass on a platter many times during sparring...I'm 5'8". She's even nailed my son a few times in sparring and he's 6'2". I never underestimate someone shorter than me! Bako, I would definitely never look you as a "little girl." :D

[Kimberly]

Oh, and as far as a nickname goes -- I don't have one. Not even at the taekwondo studio. I just give a killer "mom" look whenever the kids (and adults) are misbehaving at the studio.

[Lisa]

I too have never had one. I've always wanted one. Even growing up in sports and stuff I never had one. It was always just Lisa. So I guess like that commercial says nicknames are earned not given. Maybe I need to do something to earn one!!! Hmmmmm......
