This week is my active recovery week as i fought and won by TKO in the third round last week.
Find fights on facebook page, Rip Steven Tandoi ill get them up here when i get more technically savy.
Today
630-730 am work out.
Baseline worklout. every mourning i start my day at 530 to get to the gym by 630 a fucking commute but to me it is just another challenge to each day and i make the most of it, listining to pod casts, fighter interviews. and book tapes. all of these are alpha male in line or nutritional information. get better every day mother fucker.
so the foundation = A minimum requirement that i hold myself to each and every morning gym session. if i cannot raise my foundational bar then i will not be able to get up to the calliper of a pro athlete. the first testr of every day is to run, squat and do one more one arm push up each day.
each day this week i will do at minimum
2 mile run at 10 minute mie holding 3 pound weights in each hand.
56 one handed push up per hand
1 leg excrsise complex, (today was goblet squats.)
I made up this trainning philosophy 3 weeks before my last fight and i felt the strength in my legs give me the ability to do things i didnt know i could.
my stance has changed due to the extra confidence supported by these sturdy muscles. they are more responsive and more willing to take on all the challenges i throw thier way.
holding weights while running is very similar to an uppercut and often very close to a gaurd when they are exagerated upwards due to fatigue, anyhow in just 3 weeks of this i have noticed a serious development of the dorsal deltoid. they are rock solid and increase in power and stamina is noticable.
note, running is just good, lets make it harder.
one armed push ups, lets not get carried away, i currentlly suck at these. i added them monday due to a feeling i had durring the last fight. i wanted more core streangth. well admittadely due to my crazy schedule of triple days i fucking let my core slide a bit so that i wouldnt over train it hoping that id be able to abuse the rest of my body as long as the core was being releaved.
the one armed push up with out kipping or torqing the body but actually keeping spine aligned and only doing a quarter press at the moment is causing a barrell roll muscle contraction from toe to hand that activates so many of the core elements of a martial artist that i decided it is a necissary staple to every single day.
If you want to get better at something you do it every day.
if your life depended on increasing your squat by 100 pounds in 1 year well youd probly do it every day.
which brings me to the last movement in myt every mourning foundational work out to manifesting my dreams of a prof fighting debut.
Squat complex. The biggest muscles in the body, they convert all energy from the floor to all other athletic movements. As such i believe there is a minumum amount of abuse they need to recieve every fucking day to get the goddamn growth they deserve.
next week i start the real shit, techique training and 3 a days, while working construction.
Challenge yourself every day, regardless of your dreams and or goals, believe in yourself. invest in your growth; spiritually, mentally and physically.
A alpha male is someone who is not complacent but seeks to challenge himself each day for he enjoys that feeling of overcoming the odds, exceeding expectations and the fresh breath of cool air that comes with crossing off life long dreams.
