I change my routines every week or so. this is what im doing at the moment. After x10 rounds on bags i do pushups to failure and squats. I lift different days so don't do anything else at the moment. Rnd 1- Light jabs/crosses, combos <4 punches Rnd 2- jab only, work on perfect technique Rnd 3,4,5- work the bag random…

try going to a local boxing club or mma club, or spinning club see if you sweat

Just man up and stop whinging lol.

If you want perspective then man up. My friends have lost arms and legs and doing all sorts of crazy exercises around the world- they don't require someone to text them for motivation.

Earphones and put the wire through your tshirt and the phone/ipod end in your pocket...?

30lbs is alot to get down to your fighting weight. My walking around weight was usually around 15lbs over my actual fighting weight class... and it always nearly killed me getting rid of the final 5lbs.. If you have 30lbs to lose then you're MASSIVELY off your competitive fighting weight. In any case I suspect the OP is…

[/quote] Good location to be based out of, and some pretty interesting tours lately. I've had 26 years in so far, all over the place.[/quote] 26 years jesus lol. Where are you at now? Did you go the commission route? I finished after 8 and been contracting for the past 7 and moved to the states. I have to say 'uk commando'…

Hence the reason I suggested to the OP to continue with her spinning/body pump circuit- if she is injured she isn't going to run 3 miles in one direction then be stuck out there due to her aforementioned injury. Our longer distance runs were all ran with weight so it wasn't the same as without. When it came to…

managed to stay at 45 for the most part apart from other detachments. were you in before yourself?

No worries about the disagreements i only did it for a living lol.

Beats doing a 10km run those are boring lol

Lol yea pity ive spent the past 2 years being a piggy though. I'd stick with the other exercise classes you've been doing and try the circuits at least x3 a week. I don't know what the obstacles are on your course but a 5k obstacle course is not the same as a 5km run. Think of it as a 'sprint' between each obstacle, and…

I'm a former British Commando, bear grylls was made 'honorary' spokesperson for our unit...bit of a tit if you ask me butttt for your training: don't worry about endurance or long runs, just do high intensity interval training and you'll be fine. Simple sprint circuits with basic exercises is plenty for a few weeks, for…

cut a line in a banana and wrap it in tin foil before setting on fire for a few minutes., add tiny pieces of chocolate if you want it a bit sweeter. To eat just stick the spoon between the line you cut :)

it was an intended pun....

Punching bag :) Cant beat it...

I have the same thing for diff reasons and it definitely is psychological. I just drink teas, coffees, milkshakes etc. I use juice drops in my water to make it 'nice' to me.

I used to do 5 hours a day for boxing, 1 hour running in morning, 2 hours boxing circuits/technique in afternoon, then 2 hours circuits and sparring in evening. That was for fighting and I never gained muscle as I was burning so much off to keep weight down- was skinny and under a healthy weight. There is no way you're…

Get 2 chairs, 1 strong broomstick, lay flat on your back between the chairs (beneath the bar, like a benchpress). Then do x3 sets of 10 pull ups (chest to bar). After a few weeks youll be able to start doing proper pull ups from a mounted bar. Remember to 'hang' so your body isnt moving after each pull up (my pet hate…

Id recommend finding a boxing gym- a proper one. Every boxing class involves different fun circuits each time, weights and cardio and if you're not exhausted by the end then the place isn't legit :)

hot

Is it the beard? lol

yep

I need at least 3 coffees before midday then Im good. No real reason to cut it out. Ive stopped drinking sodas completely so one small spoon of sugar in my coffee isn't a big deal. I think it is all about finding a balance.

awesome mate, i stay over by the 75

Lol yeah i love the winter months in texas (the bit just after the miserable heat but just before the freezing rain storms). The first time i head tornado sirens going off I thought it was a bombing raid world war 2 style lol. I work in health and safety :)

Hey there, ive been eating pretty much fists of salads for lunches and dinners, and I just change which meat- tuna, chicken, beef etc. I cut out all bread completely as that's my weakness...mmmm bread.

@ dtmwed I live in Dallas. Lol to be fair Jerome ive spent the majority of the past 15 years in afghanistan,iraq etc so im used to the heat. Im in W Africa at the moment for work.I just hadn't realised texan weather was as miserable as it is.

Hello back jd! Yea its boiling, Texas isn't fun in the summer lol, I genuinely miss grey clouds everyday and light rain!

yea
