Wednesday
30 Rocktober 13
Week 1 Day 3
Cardio

TapouT XT
Mauy Thai
Just over 40 minutes long

Will be incorporating my TapouT XT, mma and boxing back into my training program once again.
Will be breaking it down from only my off days from training.
Except for my training days that I have added TapouT abs in the mix.
Why?
1) Cos my cardiologist strongly suggested I keep up with my cardio better than I have been and
2) Cos any form of martial art is the best cardo IMO

Love this style of Mauy Thai training. Lots of sweat today.
Tired but feel good!

Some folks like to post up their meals they eat in their journals for different reasons so I figure I would do the same as I have done off and on in the past.
I doubt very seriously you will see this everyday thing from me cos I really don't see the point, but I will post up a meal or 2 from time to time.

I generally eat clean and good most days, but I'm human and I will eat what I want and when I want.
Most times I eat 5-7 meals a day.
If I miss a meal of don't get to eat as much in a meal as I want to as compared to others eating habits I really don't care and I won't lose any sleep over it.

So; with that being said my meal for the day for this past Saturday evening was:
1- grilled 22oz proterhouse steak (cooked medium rare)
1- 4qt bowl of fresh leafy rabbit food
1- medium sweet potato with light cinnamon only
2- well made margaritas (no salt)
1- 16oz half and half sweet tea

This was my I really don't give a rat's ass Saturday evening meal in a way.
Ever get tired of people playing you (and you know they are)?
Yep, that's me.
Ever get tired of different people lying to you (and you know they are)?
Yep, that's me.
Ever get tired of different people ignoring you (and you know they are)?
Yep, that's me.
Ever get tired of different people thinking they're so much better than you (when they're really no better than you are)?
Yep, that's me.

I really don't care.
Talk to me or not. Leave the way you came.
I got other things I need to do if you have no time for me.
Pissed? No, just indifferent to some things is all.
