Approved Log My Competition Log 2025 - ChasetheCase

Unfortunately when it comes to health and wellbeing it always a costly exercise. You’re doing all the right things though and your mindset is spot on. Right now it’s all about consistency and keeping that spark alive.. that’s what matters most.
Totally, consistency has been an issue, but the last few weeks have been great, apart from training around a few minor injuries, I feel I'm quickly getting back to where I was.

Always good to mix it up and keep it interesting!
 
Yeah thrown myself in to the deepend with combat training after my ACL injury. It was something I kept saying to myself I'll start training at home first and build my cardio up, I'll start doing more calisthenics to get my mobility back, I'll start doing bag work to get my speed back and confidence torquing my leg, I'll start skipping before I return etc. Then I realised I was 9 months down the line and had done hardly any of the things I was planning to do. I just woke up one morning and realised I just need to get back to training otherwise I'll never go back.

The same thing happened a long time back after a knee operation took me out of training for a year, said the same thing and it ended up being almost 10 years without any training.

Sure it's the wrong approach, but felt the only approach to get back to training. I'll just slowly progress through all the above until i get back to where i was.

I was looking at peptides the other day after you mentioned, just too expensive for me at the moment. Once my wife is working again and my weight training back to before injury. I'll be hitting up @ozsteroids for everything to make up for all this time off, might even let all my hair fall out :D

It's really depressing at the moment, seeminly with endless compriomises in training, but I realised the other day that the sparring made me feel like a new human, lifted a mental cloud away. Although the test helps I need it for the mental side. But like you said previously it's tough to balance fighting with weight training at our age.
The strength and cardio will come back bit by bit brother. You’ve already nailed the hardest part... actually stepping back in 👊
