12.30.11 - Day 1 - No Intensity #tacfit #fitness #4x7

Started proper 4x7 of TacFit Barbarian/King of Clubs. I will be alternating the Mod Days between TBAR/TKOC and using TacFit Commando for High days. On Low Days I will be including Kenpo Forms. Starting on 1/1/12, I will be doing all Kenpo Techniques that correspond to that day, including learning new techniques for 2nd Brown Belt. As I get some of my speed and sharpness back, I will up load some videos to YouTube to track progress. Heavy bag work will be done on Mod Day. I am also coming off the the warrior diet, since it isn't working for me anymore. i have started logging my food intake again on my food journal.

Strain Prevention

TacFit Barbarian (TBAR) - I bought this package today. An awesome deal. Check it out TacFit Barbarian

TBAR - Level 1 Instructional - Steven and I did this. Really nice to finally really use the parallelettes that i built last year. just on level one, this looks like a real challenge for real arm, shoulder and core strength. I plan on getting some more ABS pipe tomorrow to make another set of high parallelettes and 2 smaller sets.

Kenpo
Reviewed and taught Steven all of yellow belt
I also did the first 3 from Orange belt. I plan on actually posting a video of me doing Yellow on my Youtube to so i can see from the third person on my progress. I am real rusty.
