Hey man, how are things going?
How’s training going?

Flame me, flame me good!!

Training isn’t quite as good as it could be. I travel alot for my job, so shadowboxing makes up most of my training anymore. That, coupled with eating on company expense alot, is not helping my shape at all.

OMFG THAIBOXERKEN IS MUY ROMO :icon_cry: :icon_cry: :icon_cry:

Is that a desire, or an accusation, WalkOn?

TBK,

I feel your pain, dude…I have exactly the same problem.

Add in the fact that most of my trips are to small industrial towns in Buttfucktown, USA where their idea of “exercise” is cowtipping…well, let’s just say that I can’t find anywhere decent to work out or train. And I can only do so much shadowboxing, crunches and pushups in my room…

We are on the exact same situation, I work at wood-mills for the most part.

Learn how to train.

Maybe you can give me some tips on how to train while travelling to different parts of the world about 80% of the time while working over 12 hours a day.

If training isn’t your number one priority, I can’t help you.

one of our third degrees, that i play with a lot, is in a similar spot. he got a new job he loves, but it involves about 80% travel (though the fucker is in japan now so i am hoping he is getting some damn training it). he is spending most of his time lifting at hotel gyms, doing kata, and shadowboxing, iirc. he is going nuts not being able to spar and i bet he has some special “whoop your ass” stored up for when he gets back.

TBK,

I’m in industrial tooling for the light metalshaping industries (extrusion, die casting, etc.)

I get to travel to exciting places like Henderson, Kentucky. This particular hotel that I was in had 2 treadmills, and two stationary bikes. The belts on the treadmills were so loose that they STOPPED when you stepped on them…and then tensioner on BOTH bikes weren’t stable either. I RIPPED the guy at the front desk…obviously not his fault, but it was really a disgusting waste of customer time to claim they had a fitness room.

And just ignore Tae…that’s what the rest of us do. He has some…different ideas about what a “job” and “reality” are.

You’re right, it isn’t my #1 priority. I’ll admit that. My #1 priority is becoming wealthy, and I’m achieving that goal with my career. Perhaps after I have a couple million dollars, I can change priorities and train, it’ll be about 10 years, but I shouldn’t be too old.

Hehhe, I’m going to be working in Springhill, Louisiana. I have to stay at a hotel that’s 30 minutes away because that town only has roach inns. Oh well, perhaps I can spar with the customers in the mill.

“And just ignore Tae…that’s what the rest of us do. He has some…different ideas about what a “job” and “reality” are.”

This is a trollshido thread, so I expect some flames.

No no no, you don’t get it, he’s actually one messed up little puppy.

Just back away slowly and don’t make any sudden moves…it’ll make him cry.

You fucker, don’t talk about my hometown like that. Cowtipping is the shiznit.

goes out to rope a horse from the herd to ride to the shindig, and then go cowtipping and outhouse shoving

Got a state where you are, CC? Just curious.

Shocked expression, then shakes head slowly

Not from Texas. I can tell that much.

Hell no, the real cowboys are from OK, anyway. =P

I’m from Washington, but not Seattle - I’m a good couple hours outside of there, but a world removed. :icon_mrgr

I’m only here for another 9 months, though, and then I’m going a loong way away for school.
