I have always been into martial arts and I am a U.S. Army war Veteran so being active has always been a part of my life. Now I am a Muay Thai fighter and working out helps to give me stamina in the ring.
Why I Love It:
It really helps out my martial arts and it is a good way to release stress and aggression.
How I Stay Motivated:
Longevity in life! Being fit is truely the secert fountain of youth!! I want to be in shape to play with my future kids when I am older. Also, it REALLY helps my martial arts !
BB Accomplishments:
To lose as much body fat as possiable without gaining much size.
To have the least amount of body fat as possiable.
Goal (Long):
I dont have a set goal; to me that would be a limitation. Every day I strive to me the best that I can be!
I like the old school Army saying " Be all that you can be!!"
HOOOAHH!!!!

What is your favorite cardiovascular exercise? Why?
Muay Thai - but the is a martial art.
Running (with sprints)and swimming.
Running with sprints burns quite a bit of calories.Swimmoing burns alot of calories , but is easy on the joints.
I hate power walking and cylcing (unless you are doing it as a rehab excersise) because it takes to long to burn a signifate amount of calories.Muay Thai - but the is a martial art.

Trained upper body today and I feel great! I looked in the mirror this morning and my abs are almost back. I say about 2 weeks and I should be good. I am trying to change things up alittle bit. More reps of lighter weights and burns outs , I want all the muscle , but not all the size.
I train twice a day , once in the morning and once at night,five days a week and once on Satudays. I do not believe that there is one wat to work out, I believe that working your body in as many different ways as possiable is the best (for ex. some agrue weather , free weights or machines...
what would some of the take downs you used be classified as? it looked a little like jitsu, but i am new to the whole mma scene so im not sure. i was thinking i would like to start off with jiu jitsu and kick boxing. those are the two i am in favor of at the moment. like i said i am in no physical condition yet though. i shud still lighten up.
awww man. i see what you mean. that thai fighter was rockin it and just lettin the other guy swing. totally calculated and totally in control. i hope i can train myself to be that in control. do you only do muay thai or is there another martial art to ur list?
thanks man. i thought a lot about the cat thing you said too and i was watching ufc, it looks like a lot of them could use ur advise. lol. i know its harder when ur actually in the ring, but some of them were screwing up left and right.
yea ur right. i have seen them fight like that. i kind of figured it was a bad thing to get mad. its just the first thought that comes to mind when i get mad. how do you train? i know heavy bag and all that stuff, but any special agility training or anything like that?
alright, well, when your fighting, how do u not get mad? cuz i know if someone hit me, im gonna be pist. but i want to start learning martial arts, so i need to learn to control that.
