Just getting you prepared..
Yeah i knew 2nd Degree Black-belt in some form of Karate who used to show off about his "skills". Until he picked a fight with a local drunk...and got his butt handed to him...street fighting > Karate.
I've personally been in the ring/on the mats with many black belts in TKD and Karate..i knocked one out..and beat all but 2.

Yo.....I'm down but that conflicts a little with my agenda of organizing a gang of kickboxers to to wreak havoc on my city. Can I have weekends off in this army?

Re: Health and Fitness Thread
I ate a ton of crap over the weekend & haven't been eating well in terms of macronutrients the past couple days, so that's slowed my progress some.. but overall, I've still made a lot of progress. I can see my upper abs now when I flex. 
As of next week, I'm going to start gradually start cutting out starches and sugars and working out more.. by the end of the week I'll be at about 50-75g per day of carbs.
In a couple weeks I'm going to Vegas, where I'll probably ruin it all. |

Re: Health and Fitness Thread
I've been trying to get back to my routine of eating healthy for the longest. But it just isn't happening.
I start the day with healthy, get tempted, and grab like a chocolate from my well furnished fridge.
