I have been looking back at my posts and I realize that it has been pretty sporadic lately. If that was not enough of a clue, my best buddy told me I have been crappy at posting. No excuses other than I am trying to explode my main business, which is happening. I love training adults, but helping out kids is really fun. What a great thing it is to help kids develop great fundamentals and healthy habits. That being said, there should not be any kids reading this stuff.

I picked up a mew camera the other day and started playing with it. I can now see what I was doing wrong at the RKC. I am not fully locking out my right elbow. I am working on that through the use of video. I wish that I had started this earlier, it would have prevented a bad habit from developing. I have come to see that video taping can help with how I do and how I teach techniques.

I will be putting video up now more consistently and of a greater variety. I have been asked to put up the group workouts also and may videotape the exercises. The Shen Chuan has been going really well. We have been hitting our groundwork phase and everyone is progressing well. I would love to get out to Salt Lake City to train with Jake Shannon really put some catch wrestling into the mix. We already do quite a bit as Joe Lansdale's father was a carnival wrestler back in the day. Joe hurts you with his stuff!

I have started showing more of my edged weapon stuff in class. i am honing it up in the hopes of teaching a class in the DFW area at a local knife makers place. I hope to meet up with him soon, now that I have some time during the day. I am picking up one of his blades in the near future.

I have gone back to Viking Warrior Conditioning and really love it. I think that it is the way to train. I do not see any cardio program giving you the same benefits, especially in as short a time period. I have dropped down to the 16kg and really want to own the program. It has gone better this time around as I have more rest lately. I am coupling it with a 3 x 3 program of basics - Military Press, Squats and Pullups.

This weeks group training was:

3 x 3 clean and press
3 x 3 squat
3 x 3 row
3 x 3 windmill

I had everyone use a heavier weight then normal. There were several people that were shocked by the weights they were able to handle. I had two people really own the next weight up! Go Jaqui!
