Under New Weight Management

Just realized…

I have pretty much the same body type as Jason Alexander… and I’m not 100% sure how I feel about that…

So far the hardest things about Jiu Jitsu have been:

1. My cardio is still AWFUL so I’m dead after like 3 minutes of a match

2. Learning that though it seems like wrestling, there are a lot of form variations that screw you over when old muscle memory tactics kick in.

3. Not talking about Jiu Jitsu all the time to people who don’t give a shit.

Jiu Jitsu night 2

Here we go… I’m sore but ready to get my ass kicked again.

Okay:

I know… I KNOW! ANOTHER new fresh start type of set up?
Well I started doing Jiu Jitsu this week, and I’m in love.  It’s one of the best workouts I’ve had in a long time, and constantly drives me to push harder and get better!
So hopefully one night soon I’ll be able to make it through an entire class without having to sit down and realize how out of breath I am…

But as of right now I’m starting at 209, and feeling good.

I’ll keep you all updated and have some starting/restarting pics up soon to show where I am as I begin this journey.

as always-

Stay Strong
