Motivated?

Again it appears that the blog entries have detiorated on my part. My motivation has dwindled a little also. Truth be told there has not been many developments on the training front since the krav seminar. Last week i attended the usual mix of classes although didnt use the gym, in preparation for my continous fight on the Saturday just gone. Thought it best to keep nice and loose and not risk pulling anything.

As it happend the fighter withdrew and the night before the Stealth Battle of the Flags i found out i was now going to have to fight points! Not a problem but... knowing my continous opponent was good, and i having not fought competitvely at cont for over 18 months, decided that staking on the weight was a good idea to give me a bit more clout. Unfortuately my week of increasing what i was eating fel flat on its back as soon as i discovered i was fighting points again.

Thus a rather fat feeling Steve made an appearance on the mats saturday night, rather than the racing snake i'm used to. Overall my performance at the fight was pretty good i reckon i was far more aggressice than normal and managed to dispel the fear of getting whacked. Something which tends to come back from time to time when i havent fought in competitions for a while.

I was gutted that i lost, not really for me but becuase some of my young students from BArwell had come to watch and were stood right behind me. I so wanted to win for them rather than me.

Barwell wise things have been pretty good and with being ill with man flu this week i have decided not to go to the gym again and concentrate on things which can help build the club. Paperwork and such like.
