Spring Training Review 2017



                                                            Spring 2017 Review



                I am evaluating my spring training for 2017.  February and March of 2017 was light dumb bell training 20 lbs 4 sets of different exercises and range of motion with stair climbs making it 16 times up and down about 10 flight of stairs.


               April 2017 I began to do round work made two rounds along with jogging and pushups hit 45 looks like I am ahead of schedule do to light winter training.


              I need to start taking in more water intake for May 2017 and increase round work with better quality round work namely working on masking moves working on my angles and being a little more concentrative I would like to work on my left hook and double jab to set up the right.



              I am happy with my Spring Training progress overall and looks like I can be at my peak performance sometime in June or July. I may begin jump rumping lat in May to make the feet work a little faster.


              I began working on my Tiger Style Gung fu and trying to polish out the moves a little looks a little rusty but will hang with it.

Training for 2nd Degree Black Belt

                     The time is around fall of 1995. I was training at in Lakewood, Ohio under a Master who served as the Martial Arts Instructor in the U.S. Army in Korea at least that was what I was told.                         I was working on 3rd shift for a Multi International Corporation as a Computer Operator and getting out on the Internet with a 56k modem PC 8086 Dos based system. I was reading about Middle age and Irish History since I was curious about my roots.                          One day my Master called me into his office and asked me if I wanted to try for a 2nd degree Black belt. I was kind of surprised and did not think about it I lacked confidence but My master encouraged me to give it a shot so I said okay.                   ...

Training for 1st Degree Blackbelt

              Today is 08/27/2017. I needed to discuss or go over my experiences back in the 80's when I was training for my 1st degree Blackbelt 1981 - 1988. The audience I am trying to reach is the common person man or woman this is not for Politicians, Celebrities, or rich billionaires.                 In the 80's, When you were up for your Blackbelt test this required mental and physical preparation and to drive home the point one day back around 1987 my master showed us a live training session on North Koreans training in Tae-Kwon-Do in the sea of Japan water temp. 50 degrees roughly. This made me think a lot about my training and how I want to train and had a year to get ready for this I was fired up and had dreams of after getting my 1st degree Blackbelt I would goto Japan and get the opportunity to fight for a world title shot or work at it . At the time, I was working on 3rd shift as a computer ope...
