that's such good advice! i mean if i were to do this for the rest of my life i can't just sacrifice my life because ultimately i'l start wanting to do those things and resent MA lol so so tru that it should be a life long pursuit... this is also why i try to train smart like cycling through...

i had been pretty consistent for a few months and my body just gave out recently. so taking a much deserved break! ^.^

actually fun my moto.... i know it's not for everyone... but for me, i've encountered a life changing event (cancer) that made me realise that if i have fun and laugh every day and be kind and understanding of others no matter how annoying they are, i will have a good life. i want to be on my...

At the moment I'm averaging 2 - 3 classes a week, and was wondering if this is enough for progress? i have other activities too but was wondering, how many times everyone trains per week? What is your goal in judo, and does your training routine align with your goals? Are you training more or...

I can't believe just over 3 years ago i had trouble training for more than a couple of hrs a week, but now i can survive 5-7hrs a week!

i have only been in the beginner's class so far. the all levels i am planning to go to soon... it is scary to think that sparring will do alot of damage. i am planning on going to the all levels and just asking the coach to let me sit out and watch the sparring the first time... i am really not...
