Best Man @ my cousin's wedding

My cousin just got married and I was his best man. The wedding celebration lasted two days and I'm still sore since Sunday morning. It is Hmong Tradition to bow down twice for each of your relatives past and present. I lost count but it was close to 100 bow down. I was sweating when it was all over. My cousin told me right before we bowed down that he had been working out for it, lol.

Here's an example of it that I found on youtube.

As for poker, I haven't been playing much. Taking a little break but going to play soon. The group study is going well. It now consist of Tyler, Matt, Marissa, Ravi, Steve and I. Alot of the guys never got back to me so I think their no longer interested. However, I'm always open to talk/sweat poker with anyone.

Wow, that's a lot of bow downs. I have my personal training clients do something like this holding a medicine ball. Anything over 10 reps is pretty killer.

I love traditional weddings. That is so tight. 100 bows downs is some serious stuff. Great that he tells you he worked out right before it starts. hahaha
