WannabeChamp Posted January 4, 2005 Share Posted January 4, 2005 I am a white belt with a very decent technique range(For a whitebelt I think .) Kicks- Side kick,round house,cresent kick, forward kick, and several not in the top of my head o.0. I Know a variety of block/stance and punches also. Well mainly I want to get into shape while perfecting my routines. I have alot of stamina and can usualy go 1hr-1.5hr with only a 2 minuet break for water and stretching. I'd like to be a better kicker and certainly get into shape before entering my dojo again. Any Routines you think that will prove effective? (As far as my diet i'm startuing that tommarow nothing sweet/high carbed/lotsa fruit and vegies, no soda or other mainly sugar drinks.) If you can't tell I want to get back in there and start shooting for those belts. Thanks alot for dealing with all my questions. Aaron, I ate big today cuzz it's the last time till turkey day 05 ^^!

aefibird Posted January 4, 2005 Share Posted January 4, 2005 Try and do some cardio excercise at least 3x a week - swimming, jogging/running, cycling, etc. Add push ups and sit ups/crunches to your training program too, along with weights. Start out slow and build up gradually. Try and aim to do some form of excercise every day. Stretching everyday will help you when you go back into the dojo again. Remember, it's better to stretch when you're warmed up, so do something to get you warmed up before you do any stretches. Even just jogging on the spot for a few minutes will help. As for your diet/eating plan, set yourself small goals and reward yourself everytime you reach one. It doesn't have to be anything major, just something you enjoy. If you lose 2lb in a week then treat yourself to a new CD as a reward, for example. Setting yourself targets for weightloss and having 'incentives' to hit them will help you stay on a healthier diet better than simply declaring that you're gonna cut out all soda and chips and chocolate etc etc. Your body will feel deprived and you'll be more likely to go back to your old ways of eating.
