Alright....I'm back and a bit fatigued from legs and those Gracie freaks that love twisting me up. No worries, I get mine! Believe that! I try not to let them catch me with the same move twice. But sometimes, I find myself in the same position with my elbow about to be popped before I know it. It pisses me off. But each week, they're more on their toes when we get on the mat. Today was a high rep day for me for legs 50+ reps. Nothing heavy to talk about. But the burn set in rather quick. Now I'm home chompin' on some Salmon, rice and veggies. Been on a 'fish' kick lately.
Bostonsliced.....is that the "Steve" that I think it is? If so, then you need to PM me and give me your info so we can get caught up. What small world. I don't even remember that pic! I still do those by the way.
Rufjunk.....thanks! That's a HUGE compliment. I would love to be Mr. O someday, but I do NOT and WILL NOT risk my health in pursuit of that coveted Sandow. That's just me though. Others may see it different and I respect that as they do my outlook. I had the same outlook when I was a cop. Safety always came first because I wanted to go home every night at the end of my shift as well as see the light of the next day. I know sometimes you have to take risks and/or are faced with them with little or no options. But as far as bodybuilding, my health comes first, nutrition is tied with first, training is second and everything else takes a number as I see fit.
Jeffrey, HELL YES I find it hard to recover from all I do. But my body and mind just get used to it and I really don't think about being tired when I'm training, doing XMA, and especially when I have a loaded weapon in my hand. No time for the mind to fail. When my brain fatigues and I know I still have to complete my day, it allows me to reach deeper in my gut to complete the mission. We do live fire with real guns and real ammo and real-life scenarios and you are forced to make critical decisions in a nanosecond. I work with a team, so their lives depend on me as well as mine depends on them. I don't have time to think about how tired I am, what I've done during the day, or what hurts on my body. But some nights, we just do drills on rescueing hostages. Mostly, we kill or be killed.
And finally....240! You're right....I do stay clear of "chicks with trouser snakes"!!! LOL.... you're sick!
I'll post some pics (if they allow me to take photos) from the shooting stuff and the XMA. But don't laugh if you see me twisted in a pretzel by some dude that is 160lbs. These dudes are no joke! I've watch them go full speed all out and dudes were just dropping like he was exterminating roaches.
Sincerely,
Richard Jones
