STAY/GET BACK IN SHAPE VOL 3.0 -- A New Niketalk = A New Thread

[deusavertat]

Early in my bjj blue belt journey. I dunno man, I know I can't quit cause I'm always training and people will notice my absence and my coaches know where I live.

I need to find some better recovery methods cause I can't be limping around all day like a gimp. It's literally some new ache everyday.


People won't let me practice flow roll old man jiu jitsu like I want to.

Added the Bowflex C6 to the home gym corner last weekend. God damn cycling is rough for this out of shape old man.

Morning work.



I have not had a phone for a week. I feel like knowing that I will have no distractions has given me more focus and more energy. I will get a new phone for my birthday, Until then I am enjoying the benefits of being digitally disconnected… while simultaneously being one computer log in away from being fully connected again.

I got it a few weeks back in no gi class which was awesome cause very few people do both gi and no gi simultaneously. I get why people quit. One of my training partners ghosted after blue belt.

I want to make it all the way to black but I feel like my bones and ligaments are working on borrowed time. I got maybe 3 years left of taking a beating like this. My no gi professor who just turned 40 and I see eye to eye on this, cause dudes body fell apart after 40 but he hasn't really told me what "taking it easy" looks like. He's a coach he ain't gotta be in the trenches like I do. When his back starts aching he just stops rolling.

My solution so far has been getting really good at ankle sh**. It stops fights quickly and keeps most people at least cautious. This one dude was trying to kill me last night and I had enough and just heel hooked him. Need to work on setting up wrist locks too. I don't mind being the "dirty player".....mother's milk, everything is on the table as long as it's legal.

you doing distance running?

 

[Beruseruku Desu]

you doing distance running?

not really. I run like 5-10 miles a week

 

[tokes99]

not really. I run like 5-10 miles a week

could just be a global fatigue type ting, are you lifting with the same/similar frequency? do you think have you lost weight/muscle?

 

[Air Champa]

Yeah, weight loss will destroy your strength more than anything. I'd check the scales.

 

[Beruseruku Desu]

i need to check the scale for sure.

What's up crew? Been a bit...wanted to share my Podium referral link in here in case you're looking for any supplements to support what you're doing. Used to be 10% off for friends/followers but they upped it so 25% to make it actually worthwhile. I'll be real, the preworkout is pretty tame, but they have awesome Whey flavors and I drink the Hydro & Salt every morning before caffeine, and then use the Morning Collagen as coffee creamer. Let me know if you have any questions on any of their stuff.

Gonna see if limiting my sessions to less than 180 minutes does anything for the chakra.

I hit 315lb in the gym for the first time ever a few weeks ago. I never attempted it before because I always assumed I'd get injured doing it......not sure why. Thoughts can be irrational at times.
