I usually quit.... but that hasn't worked for me so far...... so this time I'm gonna try to roll with the punches..... and i mean that literally... because today i got my ass beat! Lets face it ... i have never been a particularly athletically inclined fellow.... even in high school the only sport i played was softball and i quit that my Junior year to pursue less productive things like doing drugs! So this BJJ, MMA, and kickboxing training is the most hardcore sport i have ever "tried" to do..... and i say "try" because tonight i feel like i just got my ass handed to me over and over and over and over..... and over! i wanted to throw down my gloves and quit.... i was frustrated ... i was pissed off.... and no i was not just mad about getting beat..... I was a lil peeved at some of the guys in the class and their " show my balls" attitude .....My thinking is we are all here to learn ..... you have been doing this for how many years.... yeah....I am on my second month... it doesn't make you a bad ass cus you beat me in 2 seconds ...... now stop with the "my penis is bigger than yours" shit and be cool and teach me! I am not able to learn shit if you just submit me in 1 second flat.... and guess what you didn't get shit out of it either......so needless to say i was very very frustrated .......but that is the way it goes ..... "so what did i do?" you ask......
I Velcro-ed those damn gloves back on and stayed for a second class! I am not quitting this time.... come hell or high water... i will see this through... i may suck at it right now but i won't always .....
On a lighter note..... I finally got "Body for Life" in the mail ... gave it a read... and will officially start the circuit on monday ....I think i have the lady friend on board with it too so if i can get her to go to the gym with me that will help me stay motivated for sure.......Gotta look strong in front of my girl you know.... just kidding!
as of yesterday i am out of the 260's.....the going is slow but that just means i am really losing it and not just crash dieting it off so i have to really work it off.......
who knows...... maybe someday i really will have a 6 pack...... lol... One can Dream!
You have already stuck with it longer than I have ever stuck with any "self improvement" ideas and that makes you AWESOME! Injury, frustration and all. Someday you will showing them up by kicking their asses and then turning around to be helpful to the noobs.
