Whats that hour of static stretching like? I really need to do this. My yoga experiment this summer hasn't really panned out ha.

fufu · 02-28-2008, 09:59 AM

It's boring as of late. Sometimes I am in the mood for it and sometimes I'm not but I do it anyway. The first few weeks of stretching for an hour everday are pretty good because you make alot of progress. Now I am kind of stagnating and just maintaining flexibility, still making some progress here and there though. I need to change things up I think, I've been doing the same basic routine for over a month now.

If you mean what is it like, like what I do then this is it - I have two blocks of stretches. First one I do hip flexors, hamstrings, glutes and lats. I do that three times through holding from anywhere from 30-90 seconds. Then I do another block 3 times through containing hip adducters, groin, a splits stretch, a different hip flexors, calves, pectoralis, then quadriceps.

I do that after weight lifting and BJJ. If it is an off day I warm up for 10-20 minutes then do that.

fufu · 02-28-2008, 10:03 AM

Weight was 189.5 today.

All smileys aside, I don't even feel phased in the least bit.

I haven't been below 190 is a looooooong time. Well over a year. But it feels good to be light.

fufu · 02-28-2008, 03:19 PM

strength invterval setting, lvl 12/16

So.......I take it you don't rest much. Would it not be more beneficial to hammer out loads repetively?

Both are good. You are implying conventional sets and RI's, right? I had been doing that for several weeks with my push ups. With chin ups I have been doing ladders because I found they really helped me up my numbers in the past. I wanted to do something new for my push up so I decided to go with the ladders. I don't like to stick to one thing too long. Ladders are great because you get a whole lot of work volume in a short amount of time and the way it is layed out gives you just enough rest to do accomplish the work. It really gets your mind off rest intervals and it is like one huge set, good for improving recovery time and sustained effort.

Never thought of that. Another great idea from the fu.

fufu · 02-28-2008, 04:41 PM

thank you sir

I saw ladders(chin ups) for the first time in func17's journal a while ago.

Interesting. I need to start doing something like this.

I feel so tight all the time with the weight training, I can't even touch my toes. It's terrible.

I'm going to draw something up and then come back in here and ask what you think about it.

I know what you mean, I felt like that too.

My back gets so tight from sitting alot. I've been sitting alot less and when I do I sit with better posture. If I skip a day I just seem to get all tight again.

fufu · 02-28-2008, 09:19 PM

I just came off my diet tonight...wow. Pork lo mein, fritos, and cheese. CHEESE. This is one of the greatest nights of my life.

I think I will stop at taco bell/kfc tommarow on the way back from BJJ.

fufu · 02-29-2008, 12:32 PM

BJJ
10:30-12:30

Drilled arm bar, passing guard, escaping triangle, escaping triangle to knee bar.

Then some real time drills escaping/submitting from guard and under side control.

Then I rolled with a blue belt for about 10 minutes or so. He submitted me three times with a keylock but for the most part it was competitive.

soxmuscle · 02-29-2008, 12:47 PM

Quite the binge. I'm sure that was a gay olde time.

Sounds like you had a lot of fun! Was the blue belt much larger or smaller than you. I know I tend to overpower people because of my size, so I was just wondering.

He weighs pretty much the same, slightly heavier I think. He has been training about two years. I tried not using too much strength. I haven't been trying to bridge people over as much as I used to. He actually told me that he was trying to use too much strength himself and I was countering and that was making him tired. It was a good roll but I still had so much more in me. I was ready for another 10 minutes.

I held back and didn't eat that much, but it was still orgasmic.

Got sick yesterday. Just a general feel of lethargy and a scratchy throat. I skipped BJJ today. Hopefully I'll snap out of this by friday. I pulled an all nighter at a party over the weekend and trained the next day without much sleep, I think that is what did me in.

I will just train grip and stretch today.

How long did this take? Seems like a crazy fu-hybrid cardio workout.

Not quite sure. I don't really rest that much between exercises, just one after another with 1 or two minutes in between to set up.

fufu · 03-09-2008, 01:53 PM

BJJ 10:45-12:30

Worked on arm bar from mount, chokes from mount, bridging from being mounted to their guard. There was only one other person there today besides me and the instructor. One of the guys from the gym had a fight last night so people were out late to that and plus there was a time change. I got to roll with the instructor at the end. He is a purple belt that is on his tenth year. He submitted me with a triangle choke and then some neck crank. We rolled for about 6 minutes, so I felt pretty good about only getting submitted twice.

I rolled with the other kid that was there. He weighes 145 so I never feel threatened and I controlled most of the time. I was trying to use as much technique as possible without using too much strength. I secured an arm bar at one point and let him go.

The head instructor asked me if I wrestled before. Always get that question. I said no, he said my movement looked good. Good day overall.

After I got home I stretched and drilled some basic stuff. Worked on my kip ups some more.

Today is also my first day coming back from being sick for 5 days. I felt well. My conditioning hasn't really been tested that much in BJJ yet.

I haven't been below 190 is a looooooong time. Well over a year. But it feels good to be light.

You dropped some weight quick, huh?
You outweighed me for a year or two. I've slowly gotten up to almost 190 and now am cutting from a low B.F.

Nice to see your stretching routine.

tallcall · 03-09-2008, 07:23 PM

I really like those days when there's only two or three people, it usually makes for more of a one on one session which is at least as important as having a different guy to roll with each time (in my opinion).

I've been up and down for a while. But yeah I dropped from 202 to 189 in my last cutski that lasted 5 weeks. I rebounded back up around 192, that is where I have settled around at. I would like to be around 185 but I'll save that for later.

Stretching has helped so much. I haven't had any joint pains in a long time.

BJJ 10:30-12:30

Bigger group today, a few new guys.

Drilled double legs, guillotines from sprawling, keylock, and some collar chokes.

Rolled with a guy who had 25 lbs on me. We rolled for about 10 minutes, he subbed me once with an arm triangle. Other than that he layed on me in side control. He said he couldn't do anything because I was staying active. I wish he would have opted for another position. I always like to keep movement up. Whenever I get side control I usually hop around mount, and northsouth just waiting for an arm or something.

Rolled with another guy around my weight. Controlled him pretty well and almost got caught in a collar choke once. I fucking hate those, can't wait to get the gi off. I had his back twice but couldn't finish him. Almost had an arm bar and a triangle. I never know how hard I should try for the submissions. We weren't able to submit eachother although we stopped when I had rear mount.

Still was ready for more. I never feel like I get to roll enough. My conditioning is doing very well, I have yet to gas.

tallcall · 03-12-2008, 02:16 PM

I'm usually the one who gets mount or in someones guard and sits there just to frustrate them in order to make them make dumb moves so I can pass or take an arm. I love thwarting the guys every attempt at sweeping and just holding position. Usually I end up working much harder when someone does it to me so I actually like to be in that situation on the ground. I like the feeling of eminent danger and the feeling that I have to keep moving or he will get something (makes you work so much harder to get anything done

).
