hallo

i have recently got back into martial arts after a bit of a lay off.

my goal is to start competing so im going to start logging my progress here :icon_chee
now for a bit about myself im 27 5' 10" and around 220lb. my training is powerlifting or some form of conditioning in the mornings ( the conditioning part i have no idea about) and mma in the evening which is a mix of thia boxing and bjj.

in the past i have trained in; boxing chinese boxing krav maga karate judo akido and probably more as from the ages of about 5-21 i was nuts about martial arts.

i will try to slim down to around 190lb before i compete ( that will be as soon as my instructor thinks im ready)

over the last 3 years or so i have been mainly focusing on weight training which has left me inflexible but suprising my endurance and speed are much better so this is something i will also be working on.

any advice regarding the conditioning will be a great help
