One week in the archives. Two integrated workouts; two strength training sessions (all calesthenics), one hour-long stretch; two TKD classes, one of which aggrevated my bad knee; one forms and weapons session at home, and a sparring class, my first in several months.
I've been asked to add four more TKD classes to my teaching schedule. The money sure wouldn't hurt, but I'm never gonna get out of the dojang. The more I teach, the harder it is for me to get up (emotionally) to train. Four months of intense grind, then we'll go from there.
My weight didn't budge, so I need to be tighter with my diet. More water, less salt. If I'm still stalled next week I will go to a strict Zone plan. By and large my body feels good. The ADAPT workouts (plus the 1/2 cup of vitamins etc I take every morning) help me recover from everything else I do, so I'm not walking around like a large wound all week.
Here's my training plan.
-Mondays: 9:00 AM integrated class; 8:15 PM TKD
-Tuesdays: 9:00 AM strength class; home forms/weapons practice
-Wednesdays: 9:00 AM integrated class; 8:15 PM TKD
-Thursdays: 9:00 AM strength class; home forms/weapons practice; 8:00 PM open gym/private coaching with Master Jung
-Fridays: 9:00 AM stretching class; 11:00 AM forms/weapons practice with "the gang" at the dojang
-Saturdays: 11:15 AM sparring class. I might spar on Thursdays instead of/in addition to Saturdays.

I feel your pain...sorta. After my first week back at the gym, my trainer saw me and asked what my excuse was for not being there in a long time (note: "excuse" as opposed to "reason"). She said I should go to her spinning class on Tuesday at lunch and when I winced she assured me I could go at my own pace. Then she said (without asking), "Okay, I'll see you on Tuesday!" and walked away. If you knew my trainer, you'd know there was no option and no backing out. I'm not sure what's going to hurt worse, my ego or my butt. I may just lay down and die.
ReplyDeleteYesterday had to go to the dentist. This morning I lifted weights in the garage (shoulders, tricepts) I will work my forms this afternoon before teaching (full power) Then work out with the adults tonight. When I get home, it will be the stationary bike before dinner. No excuses
