Rising up again?



I wrote an epilogue to the Martial Arts Journal in February 2010, however something has rekindled my interest again which might lure me back.

1) My brother rejoined Steve Powell's JKD class last week

2) In addition to that my brother and I have been trying out the Tabata training method in the gym.

This Tabata training consists of
1) warm up
2) 20 seconds work
3) 10 seconds rest
4) repeat 7 more times

I read a lot of MMA and combat training guys do this conditioning training but I am doing it to get back into condition again! Being a team leader at work(although I do a lot of walking around) you do tend to ensure you have a nice meal every night to replenish the energy spent sorting stuff out. However with my brother Lun going back to JKD and this Tabata training being very enjoyable who knows?

I might start kicking some pads again......

By watching videos of different martial art championships, you can make your plan to train yourself without any instructor. Muay Thai Shorts.

I would say that it is a good start for you to go back to the gym. Doing those exercises would make you feel like there is something missing, and it would only motivate you more to kick those bags and dummies again. Just keep on doing the things that inspire and motivate you.
