How exactly did you get a sore throat from fencing epee? I thought only sabreurs scream on the strip.

In epee, everything is a valid target. That being said, I should probably invest in a cup before trying it again.

Eek

I'm having to start lifting weights 'cause of flicks. I apparently don't have enough arm strength to hold my sword in place. It's embarassing, really.

Wrist weights? I didn't know there was such a thing. I should probably look into those. Oh I understand completely, I'm a dancer as well and my wrists have no strength in them whatsoever. Now my ankles on the other hand...
