Week One Done

Well, the bad news is that it wasn't a great week. The diet still struggled, I didn't feel 100% health-wise, and we had a lot of personal and business stress to fight through. So, I could have done more, and done it better.

That said, I enter week two down 1.8 pounds from my starting point of 308.2.

Not thrilled with it, but a loss is a loss, so I'm going to hold onto it, and try to build on it.

Becky and I are hoping to start some basic MMA training at a gym here in town. There, we'll go through their Fight Camp. As their website says...

Fight Camp provides you with instruction in boxing, kickboxing, and grappling techniques in order to build functional, dynamic strength. You will experience a combination of grappling drills, heavy bag striking, focus-mitts, and a large range of plyometrics rather than traditional gym routines. You will develop base grappling techniques such as escapes, defense, position control, submissions, and the opportunity to safely roll (grapple sparing). More intense and combat specific than fitness boxing or kickboxing, Fight Camp will help you safely attain functional fitness through martial concepts as an alternative to typical gym workouts.

So, we're hoping this really lights that fire that we need to really get this train moving.
