I went to the gym at lunch, so it was a new gym, and I wasn’t that sure of where everything else. They had no boxes to jump on so I adjusted. Not that well, but I did. I also forgot my iPod which sucked!
Warm up
X5
20 Mtn Climbers
20 sec plank
There were no clocks anywhere, so I just kinda counted in my head. It also made me really paranoid about getting back in time. What gym has no clocks? It’s not a casino.
The mtn climbers were ridiculously hard, I’ve actually felt my hips for days since them. Definetly some thing I need to do more. I think I’ll use them at the end of workouts.
A1) DB BP 30x5x5
A2) DB Row 40 x5x5
It was a weak day, I tried my usual numbers but they wouldn’t go up. The benches were also really tall. Laying on a bench, I couldn’t get my heels to touch the ground. I’m not short, it was just a really odd weight room.

DOH! I hate when I forget my ipod, cause then people wanna talk to meh…wah!!
Mtn climbers are the debil. you know what have been MORE cruel? And I’ve done this before…Mtn climbers into push ups into planks… evil laugh[/quote]
Sometimes I just have the earphones in and don’t even put music on. It’s like a magic forcefield that keeps most everyone away. Also most of the time I’m so worried about what I’m doing that I don’t hear people around me even without the earphones so they give me an excuse to say what 50 times.
I can’t deal with a little debil I don’t think I’m going to be asking for more evil right now.

Lol @ MiM! Turning everyday exercises into forms of torture. Thanks for that.
Who is the Dallas and do I have to take out his knee caps? Because I will.
Congrats on the dropping of inches! Sounds like whatever you’re doing is working for you. Yay![/quote]
Don’t encourage her, people she trains are going to hunt you down!
Dallas is the cheating ex boyfriend. I travel in fairly violent circles, knee cap damage isn’t hard to come by. Maybe you could break his heart instead. Show him your ass let him fall in love with it then we can make out in front of him? I think that’s a much better plan.
Yeah I just want it to go faster. At this rate it’ll take me 6mo to reach my goal. I don’t have that long!
I went rock climbing. I haven’t been in ages, it took a while to get back into the swing of things, but it was super fun. Hell on the grip, but a nice alternative to holding heavy things.
We did a wall where the were no real holds, just curves in the wall. It was so much less grip dependent and more about balance and technique. I liked it a lot. I’m going to try to have to go back soon, I just need to find a consistent buddy. Currently my friends are willing to do what ever I want, but that’s not going to last forever. MMA guys have a very small comfort zone, it’s pretty surprising. I think it’s based in anger issues.
Losing those inches shows that your hard, hard work is paying off. I’m confused: you say you don’t have six months to reach your goals? What? Do you have a terminal illness and only five months to live? If not, then trust me, you have six months you sweet young thang, you.
In times of heartbreak, I always HATED it when people would bust out the cliche – time heals all wounds. So now you’ll hate me for sure, because that shit is absolutely true. Cheating sucks really hard, no question. But he wasn’t good enough for your awesomeness, and now you’ve got the opportunity to find someone who is.
I’d like to compete at 135 in September. So while I won’t die if I don’t get it, it’ll be disappointing. Not the end of the world, but if I don’t hit the weight I’m not competeing. It’ll be even worse then because I’ll be even smaller for the weight class.
Time has helped, it’s been three weeks and the rage is gone. It just sucks because my birthday is Saturday and we had a whole weekend planned, now I think I’m just going to a bachlor party and hanging around my apt. I still want to take her out though, everytime I vent to the guys they tell me we don’t hit girls. I can hit whoever I want I am a girl. I have yet to see her, I have no idea how that’ll go down. I actually thought she was a nice person. It would take me two seconds to knock her out. Ok so not all the anger is gone
pch2: that rock climbing sounds like fun! instead of dragging your friends to go why not ask around (internet and such) to see who enjoys it as much as you do? You have an opporunity to meet new people this way…
I know I’m REALLY late on this, but I have curly hair and I only use sulfate free shampoo!! I went through a phase for a couple of months when I wasn’t shampooing it at all and it got really shiny and healthy at first and then started to look kind of flat and dull so I switched to using tiny amounts of sulfate free. But I have really fine hair, so your situation may be different.
Wtg on your measurements! Tracking progress is so fulfilling and shows your efforts are really paying off. I think you can make 135 by September if you really bust ass. When in September is the comp?
Now I understand: you have a weight class to make. Yep, as Owlie puts it then you’ll have to bust ass harder.
You are doing great with the situation seeing as its only been three weeks. Keep in mind that the other girl is getting a great prize (not): a guy who is a known cheater. What he did to you, he could easily do to her. And karma is a big ole bitch.

Yeah, I think the next time I want to go I may throw up a CL ad. See what happens.

I’ve got really good Indian girl hair, so I’ve never had to do much with it. The baking soda three times a month is working wonders. I haven’t had to dress up yet though, so we’ll see what I end up doing with it this weekend.
So, this time I actually looked it up and it’s Oct 30th. So that gives me like 4 months to lose the weight and a month to be comfortable at it. That’s completely doable if I ramp it up just a little bit!
Dallas showed up, it made me want to leave. I wasn’t the strong confident girl I’m supposed to pretend to be, instead I hid in the corner behind some of the guys.
Being asian, female and cutting results in me being tipsy after one beer. Which didn’t even leave me with defenses up.
I miss having someone care enough to walk me to my car. Yes, I can take care of myself. No, I do not want to have to.
I do not understand little Guido girls that try to pick fights. Little girl, I am not afraid of you. I’m sorry I bumped you chair, I may look like your sweet little doctor, but if you try to pick a fight with me, you’ll lose.
I went to CF again. The calsses are actually full, but they have a free intro class every sat morn so I’m going to use them for that.
200m run
15 push ups
15 knees to chest jumps
20 BW squats
x5
It took me about 14 min. Running outside blows, which probably means I should do more of it, wah wah.
Then we did 30 medicine ball throws.
Next is the exciting part… Tire Flipping! It was the first time I’ve done it and oh my it’s hard! I didn’t realize grip was going to be the hardest part. I had aid with the first three flips but then managed the next three pretty much on my own but with a lot of grunting and messyness. Then I waited a while and got one magically pretty flip all by myself. It felt awesome.
BJJ
We did a sequence from the closed guard, that started with the x choke. Then transitioned to an arm bar or a type of loop choke depending on how they defend. I need to remember to hop my feet to the hips as soon as I get the chance.
