DT Club: 1:30 - 2:30 pm. Did some bag work, and tried to work on some 360 round kicks, but they hurt a lot. I did get introduce to some aspects of the SPEAR system, and it was interesting. I noticed a lot of crossover in other things that I already do, which is nice.

Would you consider trying CrossFit training?? Having followed you in this forum, I'm quite impressed with your training, and CrossFit might be your cup of tea. I mean this as a very sincere compliment, Brian!!

Good question, Bob. I'm familiar with it, but not really interested in doing it, mainly because of my focus in strength training.

Strength Training

Incline Bench Press: 45x5x2, 65x5, 85x5; work sets: 115x5, 115x5, 115x5.

Lat Pull-downs: 130x10, 130x10, 130x10

Jump rope between sets.

12/6/2017

Defensive Tactics Training: 3:30 - 5:30 pm. Worked some basic escort position takedowns, striking, and standing weapon retention, both in and out of the holster. This was for a local area department doing some use-of-force training.

12/13/2017

Strength Training

Press: warm-ups: 45x5x2, 65x5, 85x3; work sets: 110x5, 110x5, 110x5.

Lat Pull-downs: 130x10, 130x10, 130x10.

TKD Class: 6:00 - 7:00 pm. Basics (they hurt), forms (Choong Jang), one-steps (orange belt and green belt), and some sparring. Sparring was an adventure; after performing a spinning kick and landing on the guy's foot, I stopped to let him regain himself, and got blasted in the chest with a punch for my effort, and also took an axe kick variation to the head, causing the ever-embarrassing headgear shift to take place. Fun night. Its hell to get old.

Strength Training

Deadlifts: 115x5, 135x5, 170x3, 198x5.

Incline Bench Press: warm-ups: 45x5x2, 65x5, 95x5; work sets: 120x5, 120x5, 120x5.

MA Training

TKD Class: 6:00 - 7:00 pm. Basics (lots of switched-up basics tonight, with several drills of repeated back leg kicks, like switch-foot axe kicks and back leg inside axe kicks, etc.)., stretching, form (Choong Jang), one-steps (blue belt and up), and sparring.

Sparring was somewhat better tonight, although very tiring. I sparred three matches, all younger, athletic guys. First was a high brown belt, next was a 2nd degree, and finally a 3rd degree. I defended myself much better this go-around, and didn't get pegged in the head. I even switched my stance against the 2nd degree in an attempt to throw him off a bit, which he admitted worked. Win for the experienced guy!

Strength Training

Press: warm-ups: 45x5x2, 65x5, 85x3; work sets: 115x5, 115x5, 115x5.

Lat Pull-downs: 130x10, 130x10, 130x10.

I didn't make it to class tonight. The cold weather has really been aggravating my knees, making it hurt to walk, let alone go to a class and kick for an hour.

MA Training

TKD Class: 6:00 - 7:00 pm. Basics, stretch, forms (Choong Jang, I have it down now), one-steps (blue and brown belt), sparring. Had several matches tonight, against some blue belts, then a brown belt, and a 2nd degree. I defended much better tonight. I need to work on movement, though.
