[QUOTE="ThriceLazarus, post: 1252080, member: 15848"] @Sparta/Checkmat Thank, you gentlemen. It meant something to read that, weeks ago. August was slow to start rolling, yet it did. It presents a pattern, that I am capabable of 8-10 months of exponential effort followed by a considerable crash. A hibernation. Fitting, for a bear of a man. I burned through a quarter pound of bud in 7 weeks. Usually, that would take me a year. So the sweet leaf is out for now, replaced with CBD tinctures/hemp flower. The rocketing of mood and motivation since September’s start has cemented that last dance with Mary Jane. It’s sort of a shame, because jiujitsu-ka’s seemingly smoke like chimneys. S’all good - vicariously I live while the whole world dies. An aside, Tool’s new album [i]wasn’t bad[/i]. Work has been heavy, training has been rolling along, rolling over. Adding BJJ is perfect, the Kung Fu I cultivate is a complete system aside from the total lack of ground-game. Complementary. Let’s do the math, Man. ~11 hours of Kung Fu ~6 hours of Brazilian Jiujitsu ~2 hours of Qi Gong ~5 hours of calisthenics/mobility/meditation 24 hours a week. Now I pay for my sins - while He rests a day, I must work. There’s something there, something to the forms, the functions, the postures. Everyone I roll with complains that I’m too strong. I can’t help but laugh. My 1RM bench press has topped out at 185, squat and deadlift shy of 300, pitiful for a grown ass 100kg human male. That’s the Kung Fu secret, I guess. It’s all in the hips. Speaking of 100kg - after starting Jiujitsu I swelled up to 240 for a few weeks. This is a natural cycle, necessary for adaptation, and I have watered enough Wisdom to welcome it now rather than fret about a number on the scale like a woman. Hovered at 225 for a while, now bodyfat is slowly being stripped away. Cravings are shifting. It feels different this time, which is good. Only time will tell - realz over feelz. Good luck in all your endeavors, Brothers. [/QUOTE]
