Im going to attempt to have a back off week. http://training.fitness.com/images/s...smiley-028.gif
I dont usually do too well at not giving 100% and work isnt going to help, but i feel like my body is telling me to ease off a bit.

Conditioning
35min (bicycle)
Was a beautifull day. :)
Thursday April 2/09
Conditioning
25min (bicycle)
Work last night was a good workout. Very similar to 5 hours of sand bag training. I loaded for 3 and a half hours where i have to deadlift boxes, then stack them in walls. Then at the end of the night i unloaded for an hour and a half which means i had to clean and press boxes off the ground and onto rollers about shoulder level or so. We do this with one 10 minute break so its a decent workout. Typical night except i usually do one or the other.

Just an update since i havent been keeping up this log. i am still going strong and keeping up my workouts as well as lifting boxes at work. Ive also been riding my bike home from work most nights.
Im thinking about moving to Kitchener in a few months cuz my GF lives there. If/when i do i am considering joining the Waterloo Boxing Club. Its $50 a year if i wanna spar or $5 a year if i dont. :P
Any advice on things i may want to do in preperation for this are appreciated. :)
Heya wes, to answer your question, been moderately busy, and lacking in log updates ldo, but working out regularly and fairly hard, preparing.Quote:

You've been conditioning for quite a while now, so I imagine you are much better shape then most that walk through the doors of any boxing clubs. So I wouldn't really do anything. Just get your butt thru the doors. It'll sort itself out from there.
Actually my conditioning is poor. ive mostly been riding a bike and tbh it doesnt help much in the cardio department.
Well dude, you've been around long enough and have the knowledge. Want better cardio? Start gettin busy! :)Quote:

So what's the deal? You got yourself busy yet or what?
Seriously, I wouldn't be too worried about technique and footwork and so on. Hey, if you want to pick up a heavy bag and start with that, sure, go for it. If you want to youtube some vid of form and apply them, meh, ok. But basically, I don't really think it is that great of an idea to get into technique too much pre-arriving at a club. You might just teach yourself a habit that needs to be unlearned, and that is harder then learning from a clean slate.
Cardio? I'd suggest a variety. Bit of running to start. Heck, swimming if you can do it. Got a rope, some skipping...etc, etc.
I know you've been working on strength training for quite a while now, so imagine it would be fairly easy to incorporate cardio into it, albeit initially painful. But very rewarding.
There is some dialogue, wesrman. Sooo, wazzup?
I have been doing cardio, just not as much as i should. :)
Looks like im actually joining a boxing gym in the nest couple weeks. :) Im moving to London, On with my gf cuz shes going to law school and i found a gym that is fairly cheap. It doesnt seem like the best gym ever, but im only in it for fun and fitness anyway.
Should be cool. Ill keep u posted. :)
Any updates man?Quote:
