getting back in shape

I'll be starting my fitness regime again this week, i train at home, i use a rebounder with weight in hand then kettlebell swings and do a weights split (dumbells only) not looking for more size, i have a tendency to drink too much for a few weeks train like mad lose my gut then repeat, this time im gonna try a better balance, so will be posting what im up to starting tuesday, hope its not too boring

 

also about to start training bujinkan and bjj

 

Good luck! Just so you know guys are encouraged in the Bujinkan.

Be careful starting 2 in tandem and getting into a 'he said she said' position before you know what's going on.

 

i dont know if you seen my thread, about 18 months ninjutsu with independent, got told to run away sharpish lol. i feel a mix of styles will suit me best i want some rough and tumble

 

I do both. My point was that I added on one after the other, and whilst I was comfortable with the first. It's not uncommon to see Bujinkan folk talking disparagingly of BJJ which might push your buttons if you are training in it since it will kick your butt. Just saying to try to keep a level head and block out those idiots on both sides who say bad a bout the other (frankly I've never heard a bad thing said about Bujinkan in BJJ, but the reason I suspect for that is that BJJ folk are more comfortable in their own skin).

Good luck- they do work well together if you find a good teacher and can get over they 'my art is more deadly than your dad' kinda thing.

 

cheers ive made a pact with myself to ignore martial arts no beds and just train hard and often

 

a slight delay as my daughter decied to trap her finger in the front door so A and E it was threw my day off, so hopefully will start posting some stuff end of week

 

won't bore me personally. whatever you do to get moving is going to be a positive, regardless of how small or "boring" it is. best of luck!

 

thanks now starting monday as wine stopped play, due to missus going to france and briniging back 3 cases

 

Finally restarted regime monday, 1 hr rebounding, arm day so 3 sets of assisted negative curls 6 reps, followed by 3 sets of 15 low weight curls, then 3 sets of hammer curls 8 reps, behind head tricep double grip extension 3 sets of 8 reps, 3 sets of one arm overhead extensions 12 reps , then lying dumbell extensions 3 sets of 12 reps. 100 kettlebell swings, (only 16kg) breakfast a banana and pint of skimmed milk, lunch cottage cheese with omega 3 seed mix and hot sauce, dinner sweet potatos and 7 chicken wings

 

tuesday, 1hr rebounding, 100 kettlebell swings

 

so a month late stopping boozing, no drink for a week, today 1 hr fast jog on rebounder with 1.5kg weights in hands (gravity makes em heavier apparently). then a shoulder routine im trying whereine you use light weights and do isolation exercises first then presses in super sets, jesus those light dumbells feel heavy when you get to the press, then 16kg one arm bent over row with kettlebell (this is all i got to work with at moment) 4 sets 8 . 1,5 hours non stop, then hoovered the stairs

 

Good stuff - what's this "rebounding" you speak of?

Also, have you started BJJ or are you looking to?
