In the last 27.5 hours, i took a 13 hour flight, slept a grand total of about 55 minutes, watched 5 movies, ate breakfast fast a but still n the plane, and just had a good dinner at. 9:00pm japan time

I’m tired
 
Pray you are enjoying your trip.
I am, kindasorta. I am working harder here than i do at home when not on vacation…. But at least the food is real good, and I enjoy visiting the temples…. The long shopping sprees and…. Stairs…. Not so much…. But this is what i get for letting Mrs Xue plan the entire trip without any input from myself or my daughter…..
 
Been bored with my workouts lately, so found 5 "30 day challenges" that I'm starting - one for legs, cardio, abs, arms, and upper body. On day 2 and they're super easy, hoping that by the time they increment towards the end they'll be tougher. If not I might just make my own for where I'm at.

A good indicator that you're ready to notch it up.

At my age, a workout (weights or karate) is anything but boring - each is a challenging test of survival. It has not escaped my realization that these current exhausting workouts would have decades ago been classified merely as "warm-ups" in my lexicon.

As to why I keep it up, I can only say the alternative is not doing it, something my professional pride won't accept.

I think you might be right. I had trouble finding a place to train here, so I've been doing mostly solo training, along with solo workouts that are the same ones I've done for a decade and a half. Definitely leading me to plateuing both in conditioning and martial arts.

I might need to change both the intent of my exercise, and potentially expanding the curriculum I've created to start training others. I've got it all created, just need to find the money/ability to start it. Which if I was teaching that would give me reasoning to push my own exercise and training as well. We'll see what happens.
