Absolutely. At 50, they might not be as fast or physically able as the younger guys....but they're meaner and they know stuff that young guys don't.

I remember the first time my dad and I got in a serious knock down fight. He was 52 I was 19. He grabbed my fucking balls and squeezed till I cried like a girl. Last time I ever fucked with my old man.
 
I feared my dad for years, but I now outweigh him by 40 lbs. I'm also a lot stronger than he his.

I still fear his wrath...just not as much.

My children will live in fear of making me angry. I'll be like Red Forman.
 
Damn Winter, I don't have a pair and I'm wincing. You two still talk to each other after that?

Dude, that's a cool user name, seriously.

No shit Tamil, sounds brutal. I have these weird dreams sometimes where I'm fighting someone and they grab me by the nuts and squeeze and it paralyzes me. I hate those dreams.
 
The tall one? He made the guy tap out by an act of God.
He got a replacement opponent. The original guy (the armwrestler) dropped out, so a boxer ended up taking the fight. The height difference was even worse, something like 12".
Anyway, he did good striking, but eventually got taken down. Had to defend a RNC, which he did quite well. He spun in to the guy, but ended up getting mounted. Started bucking, the guy tried to wrap his tiny, tiny legs around my boy's waist, and when he came back down, his ankle exploded under their combined weight. It looks really odd on video. The guy is riding mount, staying on top, and then verbally submits.

Weird freaky injuries always suck to watch...Take your multi's! hah.
 
Randomness:

Tabata Jump Rope (choked up on the string since this done indoors with low ceilings)
Rd 1-4: Tuck Jumps
Rd 5-8: High Knee

DE Bag:
Jabs and slips, occasional 1-right elbow combos. About all I can do. Not done in rounds, just messing around.

Neck Harness:
25 x 10
25 x 10
35 x 8
50 x 6
60 x 4

One set of each of the following as a demo to a lifting partner:
DB Lunges (45s) x 8
Zercher Squat/ Jumping squat complex: 75lbs heavybag x 8/ bw x 8
Saxon Side Bends using curl bar: 35 x 4 (OW!)
Medicine Ball Wall Slams (25lbs) x 4

Impressions:
Well, the DOMs came today. 100 Ab Wheel Burpee rollouts finally caught up to me. So, I have a jacked up hand, a fried core, a sore foot, and an incredible amount of frustration from not being able to do much tonight besides demo exercises.
It rained, so I had to do the jump rope in the dungeon It was nice to switch it up, but not what I wanted to do. I wanted to do Interval Tire rows/ pushes.
Bah.
 
Sulking:
I was going to lift tonight, and started to think about which Ross Strength workout I wanted to do. I then remembered that Ross had to stop boxing because he kept training with a fucked up hand.
So, I'm going to sulk, possibly drunkenly, with a fucked up hand tonight instead of lifting, even though I convinced myself it would be okay if I used straps, and wrapped really tight with a handwrap and athletic tape.

Fuck! I hate learning from other people's mistakes.
*commences sulking*
 
The fact that we're both injured in our own ways, sulking, and trying to find workarounds is a bit uncanny.

Does it hurt to grab anything, like sandbags?

Take the time to heal right, man. You're strong as fuck and you're no idiot. I'm glad to see you are not going to be your own worse enemy. Enjoy something else (booze, some Salvia, whatever) and train the things that you wouldn't normally focus on.

I made the speedbag my best friend after I fucked my leg up. When I cracked my collar bone, I spent a lot of time on teh Jabz, and it payed off.

Thanks man, that actually means a lot right now.
Dan: I'm working jabs right now. Next motherfucker that has the audacity to step in front of me is going to pay; dearly. Thanks to you, too.
Tamil: You'll get yours in person. :icon_chee
 
I better. Gotta help you recover too, after all :redface:...

*shakes fists at distance*
 
This picture reminded me of you.
