Looking for some opinions?

Shoot, thought I'd replied to this earlier.

I would highly reccommend boxing as a method of slimming, toning and defining.
Not strictly because of the exercise, but because of the discipline, motivation and work ethic it inspires in you.

Well I guess everyone has their own opinions about how long one should train before belts etc. I have trained for three years, four times a week until lately, now its only twice per week which is why im looking for extra training classes. I train with some excellent sports people, some of whom hold eauropean and commonwealth titles so I expect this has helped push me to work harder. I know myself how much I have improved as I can now have a proper match with them (although I still usually lose) and they have to work hard to win whereas a year or two ago i either got my crap knocked in or they had to spar slow lol! Still have a long way to go but at least im improving. When we get higher up the ranks our instructor no longer grades us but masters from the organisation we are with. For my black belt, we actually had a korean master take the grade and then he trained with us after, which was an amazing experience. Im awating my kukkiwon, cert of registration of black belt arriving from korea very soon. Hopefully this will help convince u all its not a mcdojo. Anyway lol, thanks for all the advice to those who answered, think im gonna have a look round a few boxing clubs to see what i think. Meanwhile, have found another tkd club that will let me train with them for extra fitness classes!

Is the association the TAGB or the GTI?

So she went 4x a week, X went 2x a week, X got his in 7 years, and she got hers (and then some) in 3. Basic algebra says that 2 more times per week should translate to 3.5 years to the same level. But somehow she cut out 6 months and got one degree higher.

X, according to my math, you must suck.
