|
|
As the ancient Shaolin monk martisl artists were inspired by animals real or imaginary, birds and insect, not forgetting reptiles.
Today we can incorporate popular culture in to our exercise routines.
Superman, The Hulk, Wolverine, Cat Woman (meow) and many more, but one stands out in my mind for realistic reasons and that is Spider Man.
To be exactly like Spiderman, is an unrealistic expectations but there is an obvious element of fun attached to the idea. There are exercises named after Spider Man, yes they are Yoga moves but who cares, as long as they are motivating people to exercise.
Who is or would be your super hero personal trainer?
Perhaps a personal trainer that can crack the wip, such as Wonder Woman, will bring the best out of you and is more to your liking. |

If I had a Superhero (and/or Antihero) as a Personal Trainer - I would go for Batman/Bruce Wayne because he doesn't have any Superpowers but he can hold his own against those who does. |

I do a warm up game with my kids where we sometimes use superheros. They have to go up and down the room moving like Spiderman would, or maybe like the Hulk or Catwoman. _________________ "Everything has its beauty, but not everyone sees it." ~ Confucius |

This is a fantastic idea for kids, perhaps some Dojos could implement a little super hero mentality to balance out the strict codes of conduct once in awhile.
I could just imagine a Dojo full of kids all decked out in Spider Man costumes instead of wearing Gis.
Or the CI, the only one wearing a super hero costume for the entire class. |
