June 23rd, 2008 Workout - Muay Thai
It feels a little weird to not have the day counter from the 9 week challenge here. It gave me something to count towards. I guess it works the same as goal-setting almost. I’m working on my plan for what I want to work towards next, so I’ll have new goals up [...]

Tomorrow is the weigh in and testing for the 9 week challenge. That makes today the last workout day. I went to the Mental Toughness seminar today, so I wasn’t able to go to the usual 2 hour Muay Thai class. Instead, I did a combination of weights/running/Muay Thai.
When the seminar went [...]
Day 58/63 - June 19th, 2008 Workout - Muay Thai
I have a lot of work to catch up on tonight, so I went in for the 5:00 Muay Thai class instead of Konditioning so I’d be home earlier. It was a smaller class and we did mostly cross-fighting drills.
The one thing I noticed right away was that after going through sparring class, normal [...]
Day 57/63 - June 18th, 2008 Workout - Muay Thai
I am completely exhausted and I can only imagine how sore I’m going to be tomorrow. I just came back from my first sparring day and was it ever eye-opening. The good thing is that it was a lot of fun and I’m definitely going to do it as much as I can [...]

No outdoor run at Konditioning class today - it had been raining on and off in the afternoon, so we started off with the usual inside run instead. After the warm up, we went right into some ab work and then started a new drill I haven’t done before.
The drill started off with us [...]
Day 55/63 - June 16th, 2008 Workout - Muay Thai
I’ve finally got some breathing room from the craziness that was my schedule last week. I think a bit of rest did me some good though - the warm up today seemed easier than usual. So maybe it was a good thing? Either way - I’ll be hitting every workout this week, [...]

Yesterday’s Muay Thai class was a lot of fun, but was pretty tough. The heat and humidity were really high yesterday and I think I started sweating before the class even started. I’ve got a big water bottle, but I think I need to get another one or I at least need to [...]

I continue to be impressed by the skill of the advanced students and humbled when working with them. It’s amazing how quick some of them are and how good their technique is. I’ve said it before and I mean it - I feel like a complete beginner again.
Today in class we [...]
Day 40/63 - June 2, 2008 Workout - Muay Thai - Hit My 1yr Goal!!!
Today was such a sweet day - I sparred for the first time and had a ton of fun, but even more importantly - I hit my 1 year goal of getting under 220 pounds today!
When I started this site at the end of July, I set my 1 year goal to be at [...]
Day 35/63 - May 28th, 2008 Workout - Muay Thai
I found out that I passed my green shirt testing at Muay Thai today! So today I took a class with the advanced students for the first time. Was it ever tough. Everything about it was harder.
The cross fighting was much more dynamic than the usual back and forth combos we practiced. [...]
