GAR Training - Week 2

Here's how the week went:

Monday – jiu-jitsu (light)

Tuesday – UFC Gym, 3 miles on a treadmill

Wednesday – UFC Gym, circuit training

Thursday – UFC Gym, 3 miles on a treadmill, light weightlifting

Friday – 4 mile run around Diamond Head (easy pace)

Saturday – UFC Gym, jiu-jitsu, weightlifting (legs)

Sunday – UFC Gym, epic jiu-jitsutraining

Yep, that was my training for the week. Looking at it I'm wondering if I should have had a rest day in there somewhere. Oh well...

Last week I mentioned that I was having issues with my shoulder. Well, I still am but not as badly. It doesn't hurt or feel sore anymore. The clicking sensations I was feeling when I moved it around is still there but not as much as before. I've been icing it every day (sometimes twice a day) and I think that's helping. When I roll I take it easy on the shoulder and if my partner does anything that starts to strain it even a little I tap out. Hopefully it keeps improving.

As far as running goes, I haven't pushed the pace on anything yet. I'm still conditioning the legs. They're slowing remembering how to run again. I broke in my new shoes on Friday's run, and I gotta say, I'm really happy with them. They should serve me well.

Next week I plan to run 2-3 times keeping at a steady pace. I'll think about stepping up the pace the following week. I also want to get in 2 circuit trainings at the UFC gym.
