3 hours of Jiu Jitsu and Jiu Jitsu conditioning per week, check.

3 one mile runs per week, check.

3 twenty-minute HIIT sessions per week, check.

3 days of push/pull resistance training, check

That’s the end of my first week of training for the TGO (Beginner Grappling Tournament 2/28/09) and the end of my fourth week in the Muscle Tech competition.  I’ll kick it up a notch for cardio-sake until the TGO and then bring back heavy resistance training after that for MT.

I think the MT Creatine is doing its thing because I’m noticing more cuts that weren’t there three weeks ago.  Sweet…..

Too bad nobody told me about the ’side-effects’ of creatine during the first week/loading phase.

Starting week 3 of the MT competition.  Last week was a little less than stellar, but I’ll kick it up notch with some carb-cycling and more time on the mat (jiu jitsu) for cardio.  My mile time is still garbage and it’s irritating, but at least my HIIT keeps getting better.

That’s all I got for now.
