Loved her transformation story, and cheer her success.

Just look at her progress picks. Sometimes we end up where we never wanted to be. Some sit and cry and some stand and fight. Regina fought.

Adventures in Muay Thai - TuffGirl Style

Posted in Training  :  Dec 28, 2010 8:08pm
So, Saturday was my day... I arrived at Knuckle Up ready for my first class of MUAY THAI!  I had no idea what to expect.  I saw Matt (the instructor).  He was there already - teaching the 9am Kick Boxing class to a bunch of folks.  I headed to the locker room, locked my crap up and took a seat out front and waited. Before long, a few guys started coming in... "Hey" I asked, as I walked in to the cage. "Is this where the Muay Thai class is being held?"  The guys looked at me a little strange but smiled and said "Yep, sure is."  I went...

TuffGirl goes MUAY THAI!

Very interesting week... A betrayal of friendship has occured. That's not happened in a very long time. No lesson learned, just a reminder of thoughts forgotten: Defend yourself. Trust no one. Remain focused.   Dad always told me that you only need ONE true friend and always pick your own.  I'm sure glad I have Jan. And so life goes on.  :D I've had some great workouts this week in the gym.  Today was especially wonderful!  As I am leaving the gym, Jeff stops me and asks me if I've taken any classes.  I haven't... I've just been doing my own thing.  &quo...
