In an effort to ditch my last pounds/stomach, I’m entering the MuscleTech competition.  I won’t be able to obtain their products till next week (due to shipping time etc), but I’ll start the ball rolling with my training Thursday or Friday.

 Sounds like it’ll be fun, plus I’ll get to see what type of damage I can do in 12 weeks.  I’m not used to time constraints so I’m kinda curious if I can get a semi-flat tummy back by then.  I was actually able to see the top portion of my abs late this year, but that was before the holiday disasters.  I think the combo of their supplements, heavy iron, decent diet and my jiu jitsu (cardio) will get me through.

Wish me luck!

For those of you that know or don’t, I’ve been training MMA for goin on 4 months now.  For awhile there, I was kind of on a downslide and don’t really know why.  Maybe it was stress, maybe fear, or maybe just a bag of excuses.  Regardless, I’m back to where I was…..doing something physical AT LEAST 45 minutes every day except Sundays (gots to watch my football in peace).

I think I’m gonna start my focus on Jiu Jitsu on January though.  Not that I don’t love the striking and wrestling aspects, but I feel like I’d do well to get pretty decent at one thing before introducing several others down the line; also, the more fat that comes off me the faster I’ll be for everything else.  This will also serve as a great learning experience should I choose to teach others in the future.

I cringe to know what I weigh after the Thanksgiving nightmare, but I should be in that 265 range.  So since January of 08 to now roughly, I’ve lost 48lbs.  Not as much as I wanted to lose, but it was a tremendous start.  25 more to go maybe?  40?  My god, not light heavyweight?
