Working it out!

Re: Working it out!

I am suddenly struck with this urge to wrestle. Not the high flying fako shit (even though I happen to find that tremendously entertaining), I'm talking the real type. I want nothing more than to dedicate the next year of my life or so to fitness. Martial arts! Wrestling! RAWR!

Today, it was 15 minutes of kickboxing, 15 minutes of weights, 10 minutes of abs, 10 more cardio and a 10 minute cool down plus 20 minutes of yoga.

But its not wrestling.

Not a workout update (doing that tomorrow!)
I got 13 medals on my first 6 months at my gym. So I got a reward. I chose the $15 voucher for their online store!

Also since I have the membership..and it's new year's soon. My goal. 3 x a week. And to run on that damned treadmill! Well now that my foot situation is getting better!

Re: Working it out!

I got the answer to my wrestling question. I realized that I don't want to wrestle and just get on top and pin my opponent down with my superior strength and weight. I want to grapple, which is essentially what all fights end up doing: you start standing and then it goes to the ground, almost every time.

My answer came tonight when I grappled with my friend Bam for about an hour and FUCK am I tired.

Today's Tally
20 cardio
15 weights
60 jiu jitsu

Re: Working it out!

I walk about 3 miles per day, around the neighborhood which is a little hilly, so there's some variety. If it's rainy or below freezing I don't go, and in the hot months I go at the crack of dawn & get it over with. I also do some arm work with light (4 lb) weights - not allowed to lift much but I can do these.
Every year I slack off in December, then jump back in at New Years time. It's a nice break although I can gain weight at the blink of an eye and feel like I spend Jan. & Feb. just getting back to where I was in Nov. LOL

Re: Working it out!

I will start my workout by removing the inch of dust from the elliptical, the laundry hanging on the bow-flex and my but from this chair.

wish me luck!

Re: Working it out!

I decided to try Flirty Girl Fitness "Video Vixen" today.

It's basically the most hilarious workout I have ever tried. I think I'm adding it to my list of videos I actually use.

And nowwww for stretching/weight training.
