BIG J, try this.

I'm sure that it'll do you the world of good.

I do Muay Thai and BJJ.

 

Slowly getting back into it after a serious hand injury last year.  I have been back to MT since around September last year then Covid restrictions came back again.  
 

I started training BJJ again in February.  It made me realise how much I had missed it.   Now my tendons are healed sufficiently I am looking to pick up the pace.

It's been a fairly good week for exercise. 

 

I visited a foot specialist yesterday due to pain in my left foot (second metatarsal-phalangeal joint - where big toe enters foot) and I have degradation in the joint there. Corrective orthotics to try, but despite the fact the running doesn't seem to aggravate it, he advised against it. That is fair enough. In all honesty, my enthusiasm for running is firmly stuck in Sweden at the moment and I already couldn't be arsed here.

 

But got out onto the bike 4 times. Have a gravel/road bike now (slightly fatter tyres, more robust construction - you have to think about these things when you're 108kg) and that's a lot better than the MTB. A total of just under 140km in 8 days.

 

Also 4 times in the gym. Just shorter (30 minute or so) free weights sessions with more of an upper body focus.  
 

Eating like a horse at the moment and feeling good.

Stick that in the bike thread, J. I’m flirting with the idea of something along those lines.

I just hope that BigJ appreciates the useful exercise hints I'm giving him.

 

No pain - No gain
