Training Update

Well I still have not made it to six miles. I ran out of time before class started. I decided to attempt it on Saturday since I will have more time. Training was still very good last night. I am training very hard and I am still hopeful about being ready for August BJJ tournaments. I am still around 160 lbs. I can’t seem to crack that barrier. I am going to continue my current jiu-jitsu training regiment and diet until Sunday and assess where I am. If I still have not gone below 160 I may change my diet again. We will see.
I took my second Ice bath last night. It wasn’t any easier then the last one. That first 2 to 5 minutes is murder. I did bring a laptop in and watched video to help pass the time. I am not sure if it helped that much. Its hard to focus on anything when you are freezing but I think it helped a little for the second half when I was more adjusted. I can feel a noticeable difference in my recovery after an Ice Bath. Shin Splints are a thing of the past and many of my other injuries have also seemed to heal much faster. I don’t think I could do it every night but I am going to try to do it every couple of days or so.
I also got to talk the Doc at the school last night. He said he would meet me there tonight to go over a new regiment for rehabbing my shoulder. Hopefully he can speed up my shoulder recover. That would make training a lot easier.
