Last night I posted an entry about fitocracy. It is like the fitness facebook. My first impressions are that it is pretty cool and worth trying out. The only downside is that it is limited to people who are invited. If you comment on my post at http://bjjcompete.blogspot.com I will try to hook...

I don't actually have any facts of figures to support my above claim that jiu jitsu is good for the soul but I strongly believe it is true. Since begining to train in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu 3 months ago I am feeling happier and healthier. I have even dropped 26 pounds of fat.
My main blog is...

Some parents when asked if they will allow their kids to learn martial arts like Taekwondo, Kung Fu, Aikido, Karate they will be hesitant but for most parents they will encourage their children to...
Tested sucessfully today for the next belt (blue with white stripe - the next one will be red). It was...hmm, interesting. First, I came to test in a completely stressed mood (no luck with my job search). I was sitting cross-legges on the floor among 50-70 other students contemplating the fact...
Hey, Granfire, if you're talking about the ITA or whatever it is called now, my niece made a transition a few years ago to ATA instead. It was pretty seamless for her although she had to learn new forms and other material. They let her 'keep' her belt while she learned their curriculum - but...
Starting my blog and thoughts on martial arts training and my road to the black belt. I still feel a novice after 10 months in takewondo (WTF style), but I enjoy it enormously at all levels, both as a sport and a way of life. I wish I started to practice martial arts earlier (I'm 40 years old)...
So right now, I'm currently in between instructors. However, I still want to progress as a martial artist. As a caveat, I want to say this is not an ideal situation. I'm working on getting back into Yang style tai chi, under Ron Jorgenson. I'm also going to start training in Gracie Barra Jujitsu...

today's objectives achieved. tomorrow same as today for exercise stuff.
taijutsu and some bojutsu also for tomorrow.
Right, well I'm going to call today's objectives "achieved" although I must be honest, and admit that I had to swap out the last set of 60 toe-touch situps for 60 regular crunches, but nonetheless I am happy with how it went for the first real exercise in quite awhile.
All I have left to do is...
Ok. Gi is getting a bit tight again. Figured I might as well use this blog thing as a fitness diary - the fact it's able to be viewed by others should help motivate the ego-driven part of me to move his fat, lazy backside and get some things done.
So today's expectations before I hit the sack...
Hey guys I need some help. I want to know what martial art is right for me. I want to be able to protect someone I am with. Now I realize that the best thing to do in situations like that is to run or call an authority or something but I am a firm believer in being prepared. I am 6 feet 1 inch...
