Black Belt Goal

My 2 year goal to attain 1 of the 101 HaganaH BlackBelts in the world

The nine month plan. It is time to really go after it. This week I head to Bogota Colombia for 1 month. Through the month of April I will be training at 8200 feet. I will be doing cross fit at the highest altitude cross fit in the world. My goal it to get massive cardio out of this trip as well as help my Spanish.

I am going to look for some personal training while I am there to work on striking. It should be an amazing trip.

I will also be doing Garett Machines workout from his DVD Israeli Combat Fitness you can find it here. I like how Garett discusses there are no “days off” in his system. If you live and work hard at what you do “days off” will naturally occur.

When I get home from Colombia it will be back to FIGHT classes three times a week, combat fitness in the mornings and privates with Mike Lee Kanarek.

I am looking forward to training at the new HaganaH HQ. It is going to be an amazing facility with John Clarke rocking the matt with Combat Wrestling and bringing some amazing tactical skills. The energy in the place is going to be amazing.

I am going to be blogging starting next week in Bogota my workouts and supplementation. It is not easy to keep with the blog but in Colombia I will have some time to go over post workout.

It is going to be a blast! Next time I will be writing you from Bogota, Colombia!

Buenos Dias!!

I am getting ready to head out to do some high altitude training here in Bogota Colombia. I arrived on Saturday night and had to take care of some business and I am know ready to get training. I have yet to find a MMA gym or boxing gym but I have found the worlds highest cross-fit facility. I am going to go on my search today for a boxing gym to hit some bags etc…

I have a week left and my goal is some hard core training. It is really hard to eat on my diet here. Everyone loves bread it is everywhere. I am going to focus on my training and do the best I can at my diet. When I get home in a week it is back to hard core HaganaH and Combat Fitness as well as working with Billy Beck III to get my body fat down. I am still in single digits but it is tough.

My cardio should improve it is really difficult at this altitude. I will follow up with some updates. Have a great week!
