The Champ is Here!
On 13 MAR 2009 I entered the Fort Polk Combatives Tournament. This was my first combatives/MMA tournament. I have been training for about a month and I fought at the Heavyweight Class. My weight class was 205-220. I won the tournament by defeating 4 opponents. I haven’t had that much fun in a while. My new goal is to drop to the Light Heavyweight division. I have until July for the next scheduled fight. I am sure that one will pop up before that so it is time to start training. I started lifting for strength again today. I plan to do a week of strength training then the next week will be muscle endurance and explosive training. It felt great to start lifting heavy again and I was fired up today. I also have 2 great workout partners. Sometimes the rest between sets is a bit long but we all motivate each other and it is worth it. Who knows maybe you will see me on the UFC one day. One can dream.
