Best Stretch Ever??

Posted by Eric on March 8, 2010

I was doing some program design (I always call it ‘PD) while hanging out on the couch and I did something I often do - I dropped down into a stretch while mulling over some PD considerations in my head…

Whenever I do PD, I try to do it away from the computer… for one - the computer is distracting and I can easily find myself losing focus while reading the latest ramblings on CagePotato or watching old fight vids…

It takes me at least a few hours to create a customized program for someone… After the assessment, I like to read over the results the day of, jot some more notes down, then just let it ‘brew’ in my brain for a couple of days like a good cup of green tea…

green tea Best Stretch Ever??

I was creating a program where we have 14 weeks until the fight… So I plan backwards from fight day, and fill in each week in reverse order based on the needs of the fighter…

[BTW - all people who train seriously should be following programs, which are designed for some end goal and are at least 8 weeks in length, as opposed to winging it or making up workouts the same day - the difference in results is HUGE]

Anyway, I want to share the stretch that I did that has really helped me loosen up a tight area for mixed martial artists and anyone who sits down for the better part of the day…

4 years, 1 big disappointment

Posted by Eric on March 3, 2010

The 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver juts finished up, and what a finish! There were so many lessons to be learned, but one story sticks out in my mind which I’ll get to in a sec…

The men’s hockey team won gold in a nail-biter of a game that ended in overtime over a tough US squad…

After the win, people were spilling out on the streets (I was one of them) to yell and act like a fool… Good times!

But when all is said and done, there’s one story that I’ll remember forever…

Hydration Strategies

Posted by Eric on February 25, 2010

It’s been a while since my last nutrition post… sorry for that - but I’ve been caught up in training mode since I’m prepping for a boxing fight…

So today’s topic is one that’s very important - hydration.

I’ve chosen this topic because I was woken up this morning by the mailman with a package that contained my new water filter. You’ll learn more about this later.

I know staying hydrated isn’t the sexiest or most bad-ass topic I could talk about, but it deserves a piece, so I figured I’d get it done then talk about how to choose the juiciest and ripest melons next time. :O

BUT, if you stick around, I promise you’ll learn a thing or two that will improve your performance, health, and even help you lean out.

OK this little circuit has made me feel less than conscious a few times…

The key is to PUSH yourself to your limits… that’s why it’s such a short workout - because you can’t push yourself hard during long workouts - you’ll inevitably pace yourself because you know you’ve got to get through it.

Check out the video then read the details after the jump:

Costa Rica Wrap Up

Posted by Eric on February 2, 2010

Got back home around 3:30am from an awesome week in Costa Rica with my ‘girlfriend’.

We did a lot of fun stuff that’s in some pics below, but there were 2 highlights of the trip…

The runner-up was all the surfing I got to do… Didn’t get any awesome first person vids, because it’s tough to paddle to catch a wave while holding a camera, but Helen did grab one of me from a distance… nothing spectacular but tons of fun:

In my emails I mentioned I had some big news and that it had nothing to do with MMA or training.

Well this was the #1 highlight of the trip for me…
