Cobaltsword's Journey

Training is going swimmingly, I'm participating in the 2016 Spartacus Run on the 30th of april so all my training is focused on that right now. Seeing as the OC is a 10km, 15 obstacles run, i've been running 10km once a week instead of the usual 5km my average time on that 10km is 40min. But I need to factor in the time the obstacles take from my total time of course, the goal is to do better than last time which was 55min total so i'm going to do my best

 

Otherwise, my gym sessions are paying off, aside from getting stronger week to week i'm getting slightly bulkier (which i cannot deny feels nice ^^). I just need to focus more on my pull ups and right shoulder strength, due to an impingement on my left shoulder I focused a lot on that one making my right one weaker X] small matter but I just need to concentrate on it.

 

Muay Thai Training is going very well, last training we purely sparred. During warm up my trainer took me on the pads for series, after he was so impressed stating "damn, if you would just be a bit harder you would make a good fighter in the ring", to note, i'm a very calm, non aggressive person so going into the ring would be a no go for me but it felt nice to hear that from him. Later on during sparring, when i got a breather he came to me again for comments, stating that everything was fine: technique, footwork, combos, strategy...All I needed more was to toughen up, take in the punches and give as much back :] but I withhold all the time because I don't want to hurt anyone Still, the compliments push me to new heights.

 

My diet is going well, i'm thinking of adding a carb cycling routine to go low carb on my rest and running days. But I still need to figure out how to do it X]
