Doesn't look so good in sales meetingsOk now that the contest is over... now what? Well I'm kicking around a few ideas. Some are normal, some are stupid, and some are just nice things to do.
1. Stacey P (Scuba Steve's wife) was psyched about my progress and asked me to help her lose the last few pounds she's been trying to burn off. She has already lost over 30lbs in under a year! This will be a lot of fun but I'm a big prick when it comes to coaching so it may be the end of our friendship :)
2. I want to get down to 10% body fat and see a freaking 6 pack. It's a goal, are narsistic one, but it's good to have goals :)
3. Start competing. This is where I get a little silly. I'm not sure if I can/want to compete in the local Mixed Martial Arts in Boston. It's a pretty big scene with a lot of schools and events near me but I have a few problems with this.
a. I have a nagging dislocation issue with my right shoulder. So much so that my sensei made me stich canvas stripes onto my uniform to signify my injured arm. (He tore it out a few months back :)
b. Jenny is not a huge fan of me getting KO'd or injured or suffer a mean "ground and pound"
c. I don't want cauliflower ear (see above :) )
On the other hand
a. fighting is fun as long as it's done in a controlled environment or with friends. Getting stabbed, curbed, or shot obviously sucks. But smacking each other around is good time had by all.
b. I have really loved training over the 5 weeks and it would be amazing to train for something instead of trying to win a hot bod contest or some shit.
c. I love the martial arts but they offer no middle ground. it's either sparring, which is fun as hell but nothing like real fighting.. or the octagon which can get ugly quick.
Ugg who knows. I have energy and I need to channel it. I was thinking a nice mix would be amatuer kickboxing. Not too much damage and a whole lot of fighting but the schools are a bit far from me. .... so I think I am doing a Karate Tournament in October and maybe that will quench my thirst to compete. Maybe not.. maybe you'll see me getting my butt whooped in the next local UFC style event. Woot!

1) pick up used motorcycle for cheap
2) move to dc
3) spend all summer doing track days with Phyxie to burn off energy
If I were to get another bike it would be almost exclusively for track days. Road riding is too crazy with the happy meal, cell phone talking, caravan driving, nut jobs. But hell yeah man. Track day sounds amazing!
I was considering competing in a local tournament as well. The only thing holding me back is the entry fee. I am too broke. Once I get some money I will though!
I hear that. At almost $50 a pop for two events it's a wallet hoover. Certainly worth trying but not something I can do every weekend!
UFC...sweet!!! We've been trying to rent the specials as they come up. If yah need a spawing partner (or just someone to beat on) I'll ask your Bro next time i see em...hehe
Yeah, Im not so sure that would go over well! Thanks Will!
I'm having a little get together for the one on October 7th. You're absolutely invited if you want to hit it.
I will definately be there...I love those things
