Okay, I think since I’m changing the direction of my training, it’d be fitting to have a new online log (the hell is a blog? Isn’t that what I drop in the toilet?).
Also, I’m changing up my supplement regimen, adding in Tribex and Mag-10 Avenger (the one that’s not a pro-hormone) [not stacking these things, btw].
I’ll post my exercise regimen, karate training program (non-class sessions) and diet and supplement information starting next week.

Some people say “blog” (one syllable), other people say “b-log” (be-log).
I guess that’s “cooler” than saying “web log.”
But if you want to be really cool, you need to do it in true, angst-ridden teen style, and begin each entry with:
Mood:
Current .mp3:
Example:
Mood: Morose
Current .mp3: Something gothic and dark whose true meaning is lost on everyone except for me because my through my dark, dispair filled life of growing up in middle-upper class suburbia, I know all about pain, suffering, darkness, and loss, like when my dad won’t let me borrow his Porsche and makes me take my BMW instead.mp3
And then begin your entry…
I once met a fellow that lived in a relatively well off neighborhood near me, probably middle class and up, and he said this area was the ghetto he grew up in. I find more to aggrevate me when these kids attach themselves to an image and a lifestyle that I’m sure most living it would not want. At least with dispair and torment it can come from within regardless of one’s economic status in life. Whereas the ghetto is a very low economic neighborhood.

mp3: Bich, I’m too high on the moral horse to download mp3s. That is, 'till I get this mp3 player from work that’s about $80 that straps onto my arm so I can listen to some obscenely loud and angry musci whilst I powerclean and deadlift.mp3
Mod: I’m going to be sticking to assisted pullups (machine counterweight) for a few weeks, until I’m sure of my elbow’s integrity.
Karate, etc will be done using less than full power, snap. It’s becoming stronger, though. Thank God.

someone spends way too much time in excel. NOW FIX YOUR DAMN CELL FORMATS. 
I don’t use spread sheets. 
I’m just too lazy to put the space and comma
After careful consideration, I’ve decided to discontinue practice of the form Hakutsuru. All of the techniques I have in my other forms, and it’s practice takes tiem which could be devoted to other forms and drills.
In this cycle, Seiunchin will be taking it’s place.
1:11.05 Buddha Said Life is Suffering . . .
But what does he know, he was fat and happy sitting under a fkcuing tree.
Well, I woke up sore as a btich today, seeing as how yesterday was my first lifties in a month. Still I got through Isshinryu’s 8 empty hand forms, one staff form, three staff drills, three empty-hand drills, another style’s weapon form.
Did 8 rounds of 3 minutes on bag.
Did 17 burpees. Yes, 17. Not sets, TOTAL executed burpees.
My flexibility/coordination for this exercise suxors. Need to improve.
Just not today. Today, I know only suffering.

Siddhartha Gautama was not fat; conforming to the Middle Path, he did not either over or under eat.
The fat Buddha is actually a Chinese character named Mi-lo fo (Hotei in Japanese). He is the god of laughter, good fortune, and children. The Chinese consider Mi-lo fo to be a later incarnation of the Buddha.

A blog has news and links. Otherwise it’s just an online journal or diary.
I like the sound of an Online Training Journal much more than a blog.
A blog sounds too much like a bowl movement gone horribly wrong.
Okay, today, went through all my forms, drills, etc.
Did Tabata-style bagwork - 20secs on, 10 off, for 8 min.
About 4:30m into it, started flailing more than executing techniques, so I took a 30s break, continued on.
No weights today, still sore from Monday. Will resume normal training come Monday.
