First Day Blues

Well, actually, not so blue. First session with Will this morning, I’m sure Heffernan will put up my scores and reps soon enough but basically it was tough, really tough but enjoyable. I started this morning at 7am cleaning my house for a viewing to see if someone wants to buy it. You can’t make … Continue reading →

Update on the fighters, it's been a while

Without revealing too much, here’s an update on the progress of the guys who are going to be fighting in just 17 days. Strength: As I’ve mentioned before, I put most of the guys through a prehab phase of strengthening and flexibility for about 5 weeks, and then moved the training up a notch in … Continue reading →

Strengths (not many) and Weaknesses (many)

It ain’t easy being green, that great philosopher Kermit once said. And right now I feel pretty green. Had some strength and conditioning test with Will on Saturday, and I’d officially like to say that he’s a prick. Luckily, I’m a prick, so I can see where he’s coming from. The results were pathetic bar … Continue reading →

I think when this whole fight night thing has blown over, I’m going to take a large holiday and get a crack cocaine habit. It’s the only thing for it. Lots to do, not a lot of time to do it in. Managing fighters, checking weights, getting weight down, getting cardio up, micromanagement of the … Continue reading →

What's the name of that piece of music?

Is it flight of the Bumblebee? You know it, it’s usually played when someone is doing something very quickly in gardening or home improvement shows. It goes diddlediddlediddlediddlediddlediddlediddlediddle very quickly… Aaaaaanyway, that’s what I feel the soundtrack to the last couple of days of my life should be. Some personal stuff I’ve had to deal … Continue reading →

The rehab

There was this lad I went to college with during a brief period of insanity where I thought I could make some kind of career of a technical persuasion. He was short, sort of awkward, missing a couple of teeth through, I think, some kind of moshing incident in a metal bar, an affliction that … Continue reading →

The latest member of the hole in the wall gang. Right beside the repair for the last hole.Reinforcing coming this week. I’ve been carping on about myself for most of the last couple of weeks, so lets make this post about you guys. Instead of a circuit last night I did some relays that I … Continue reading →

So it’s all over and Randy has been defeated. I have to say I suspected it would happen, even thought I really hoped that he could do the impossible yet again. One thing that is absolutely gutting though is the fact that now that there is an ex WWE wrestler sitting at the top of … Continue reading →

An all action update

Since I was a a miserable git yesterday, I’ve decided to make this entry as cheery as Rolf Harris after winning the lottery. Whoop dee frickin doo I’m a crock. Hooray for everything and so on. I’m just back from this morning’s session which was an eventful one. No that’s not true, I’m back ages … Continue reading →

Well that was a blow to the ego. I had a full assesment by a sports physio today, mostly brought about by this situation. I’ve been sliding from one injury to the next for probably the last 3 months now. Every week of great training has been immediately followed with a week or two off … Continue reading →
