2008 Resolutions - 12/28/07 04:27 PM

Anyone making martial arts related New Years resolutions? Again, mine is to achieve the full side split. I keep working on it but this year I am resolving to make a more consistent effort.

This year? Just to keep training and not get injured. Longer term? To earn my BJJ blue belt.

Train more. Eat less. Lose weight. Be less grumpy at my kids. Work up 2 students to shodan.

Conditioning, more boxing, more wrestling and to spend more time training gi-style jiu-jitsu (at least during the early months). I am emphasizing conditioning for next year.

More resolutions: get a passport, travel abroad, visit the dojo's of a few cyberfriends, and 'move up to the barn'.

I plan to get a job, add in more conditioning, weightlifting, cardio, and work the RAT System.

To have a lean mean muscular cut body! More strength, speed, stamina!

I really don't to the whole resolution thing. I'm just going to keep truckin' along and continue doing what I'm doing.

I put that out there to add some humor and maybe get a response, oh well.

Just remember, whatever your goals are...stick with them and make sure they are realistic. Don't jump in like gangbusters and wear yourself out in a couple of months. Ease into it with dedication and make it last the whole year.

Good luck to all!!

Work on my conditioning and technique for my Brown Belt test the first weekend in April.

Pass said test.

That will be enough to concentrate on for now...
