The First Day…Eh, Okay, The Second Day

Maybe I should take a topless picture of me flabby and show it next to a 90 day image…or perhaps I’m getting a little bit ahead of myself. I should really call yesterday my first day as it was the first day I adjusted my eating for what I’m up against. Today is day two and it started out with a good training session, albeit early.  At 5:30 AM my alarm went off on my phone for the first of three times. After crawling out of bed and sleep walking to my bathroom I put life on auto-pilot, grabbed a uniform and knee wraps and headed to the school.  Today workout started out with two minutes of Jumping rope…and it was a bitch.

2 minutes of jumping rope used to be nothing to me.  However with the extra liquor weight, and the lack of hard training it might as well have been climbing up a mountain. It almost makes me sick to know that 4 months ago I was doing 5 minutes without a problem and now two minutes is kicking my ass. I did it though and I wasn’t going to be beaten by it.  Tomorrow will be two minutes and fifteen seconds.  The jumping rope will be done 3 - 4 times a week hope fully working up to 6 minutes in 8 weeks.the idea is to increase 30 seconds per week. Ideally, I’d one day like to go up to 15 minutes. The owner of our school equates that to about an hour of running and he tells stories of when he was on the national team jumping rope to entire ALBUMS of music.

The rest of the training was medium intensity. Trained forms kicking combinations and footworks…nothing too too bad. The plan is later today to head out to the Golf range and hit a bucket of balls. After this it is home to the showers and back out to the school for another medium training session.

Wish me luck people.
