So It's Official
I won’t be fighting in Thailand in November as originally planned. I’m taking some extra time and really focusing on my strength training. I figured I would strength train for about 10 weeks, just enough time to be able to really throw someone into a fence, but now I want to work for a few more months and maybe go up a weight class or two. I’ve sort of caught the strength bug. I’ve put on about ten pounds in 5-6 weeks and I’m really interested to see what I can do with some serious power.
I’ve got about 6 more weeks on my original routine, then I’m going to move to Medhi’s advanced program which is 8ish weeks I believe. That’s about 3 and a half more months of dedicated strength training. Once that is complete, I’ll need to get back into my MMA program (striking, grappling, conditioning + less focused strength training).
On the upside though, this frees up vacation time I was hording so now I’m going on a(n?) European excursion in July which is exciting. More on that laterz I suppose.
