Thanks brothers!!!

I'll get out of this rut soon :headbang: Weights are beneficial but there are other ways to exercise e.g. jogging, sprinting, doing pullups on the monkey bars etc.

Here's a couple of cover tackles from my last 2 games of league.

last hit is savage.

- run 6.94 km in 37:17

- stretch

so begins the journey of (mostly) letting go of workout to workout pace targets. i'll still probably throw in a few progression runs or fartleks 1-2 times per week but for the most part, it's ~40 minutes per run, working up to 60.

FUCK it's humid. 74%.

nice!! fu*k workout-to-workout pace targets!!

for me, makes it way too machine-like. "Listening to your body" with running is a serious art, the more we learn to push/back off based on our current state, the better. It's very similar to jumping etc, but the "heart muscle" component adds a different dynamic. I guess jumping's version of heart/muscle-fatigue is CNS-fatigue, except in running you can experience both (heart & cns fatigue). How the heart is responding on any given day, is not at all bound by our instruction, depends on so many variables.

word that's some nice humidity. :ninja:

ya it was good. my dad wanted to watch it so i found him a stream. didn't expect pac to look that good.. don't think it was mattyse looking bad, he's always solid/tough/lots of power. pac looked decent, good movement, solid power, but still his same old sloppy D as the fight goes on. he just gets too confident when he's controlling someone, gives people at exploiting his "chin". and from that recap, I avoided the spoiler!

thanks for the link!

easy day.

edit: i feel so sick after my evening run. think i ate too much earlier, mucous was thick during my evening run but i was mostly going slow so that helped. after i got home, drank a ton of water and now i feel like death. ;d

edit #2: feeling way better before i sleep.. natural fruit juices + tons of water cleaned me up. took a while, but feel decent now. that was scary. thought i was going to throw up for a bit. spit no longer thick either.

the spit test is a really good one. if it's thick, bad. if it's like water, good. (from my experience).

he has some legit mental problems.

no skills at all. looks like he can throw a hard punch occasionally (just wings it), but no actual boxing/fighting skills.

also check some of the last videos on this thread, a professional heavyweight boxer tried to take his head off. Zelenoff is lucky he didn't die that night. tbh i'm surprised he's still alive.

Mixed Martial Arts / Re: How to body slam someone for self defense?
« on: July 15, 2018, 12:36:25 pm »
isn't a body slam the move they do on wrestling where the guy is lying on the ground and he jumps off the ropes and directs his belly/chest on the opponent guys chest.

nah, that's a dive bomb.

body slam is where you grab someone (bear hug style usually) and just slam them into the ground.

Quote
my inexperienced 2 cents regarding bringing a guy down to the ground would be to have your hands up ready to deflect his attacks and to grab either his arms, head whatever it takes to control him and bring him to the ground.

i avoid the ground at all costs, last place I want to be. safest place to be is standing IMHO, well especially for a boxer-type, but even in general. Going to the ground can get really messy.

i dno. i feel like if someone sucker punches me, it'd be ok to attack the nuts. a nice nut kick, some head shots, then a nut punch, then potentially some ground kicks and a nut stomp.
