So here I am. 8 weeks after breaking my foot. I am no longer in the footbrace. I am also 4 kilos heavier than I was when I broke it. But I am back at the gym. No rolling at all for 4 more weeks, but at the gym nonetheless. No heavy impact on my…
Day #17 of broken foot
So im now on my Easter school holiday! Yay! I can relax! Yay! Im banned from training. Cant get to the gym. Cant walk let alone run. This sucks. I have 14 days where I could if had extra rolling sessions; gone to the gym and pushed myself. But no, im watching youtube instructionals, surfing…
Robo-boot
So I now possess the ability to defend any heel hook 100%. Yeah. Sounds brilliant doesnt it? How has a guy with 2 years training on and off manage such a bold claim? Easy, this week I broke my metatarsal in rolling. Last 5mins of class, I slapped on a triangle and the guy rolled…
Broken bones and plans
I havnt written for a while for several reasons but the last 3 weeks have been eye-opening. 2 weeks ago I have 2 awful no-gi classes. Far too defensive; not getting any subs on properly; getting subbed a lot. I went last week and got caught in the same triangle twice by making the same…
This post doesnt exist
So. It appears its not just only God that can judge me. But I cant talk about that. But the keyboard experts can So the last 2 weeks Ive gym’d, run outside, run inside, watched my diet, lost weight, been run down by things I can respond to or defend, but…..ive realised a few things….
Be-Beep-Be-Beep Press Press
When I began teaching I lived in a ‘Spoons for 6 weeks. They had a 2 for 1 deal in dinners. I got massive. So I started running after seeing a pair of Kayano X’s. I had done a bit of running at uni but I could only afford some Gola tennis shoes with soles…
Targets, calories, greentea
Whoop! Got back to No-Gi finally. Slapped on a few baseball bat chokes, remembered how how much of a lump I am, how Ive been drinking a tad too much last 3 weeks (I blame school) And…….Ive entered a No-Gi competition!! Its sub only which I prefer after my last one. Issue is: ive got…
Tired? Lazy? Busy?
I have majorly drifted recently. Got over my illness, got school under control, been a bit lazy. And my gym closed this week so Ive found a new one that I think will do me a massive dose of good. Havnt been back to No-Gi and I dont know why really. A bit of its…
Same story
So, last week I was recovering from a virus (flu-like and thats official Doc wording) and the plan was a week of gym, eat better, work on strength. Then today I go back to No-gi and roll. Cept I didnt. What I did was go to the gym Saturday, tried a new routine with many…
Tired day lazy day
What sucks is being ill. Now, I know it was a fever and it wasnt serious but it knocked me out for 2 weeks. And thats 2 weeks of getting tetchy and not training. True, weight loss was good but that was it (I only ate soup). So now Im better Ive made plans. This…
