It was a tough work out today.  I did the Kettle bell class and then the cardio boxing.   Joe and Sean are going to be pushing me because there is only 8 weeks left until the fight.  I have to really work hard and not quit.
   I am understanding what Joe and Sean mean when they say everyone wants to box, but not everyone wants to do the training.  It sounds fun to get into the ring and pretend to be Rocky, but to really get ready to box means hard work and not giving up when your body wants to quit.
  I got my butt kicked a bit today, but it reminded me of  why I am doing this. I am doing this to help families that are going through rough times.  They are trying to change their lives and it will take work on their part.  It is  easy to say that you want to make a change in  your life, but it takes drive, starting good habits and perseverance to really make it happen.
   So yes, it was tough tonight, but life can be tough.  I am going to keep going and keep my eye on my goal and work hard.  It's about going the distance and  that's what I'm going to do. The woman of Marguerite's Place can do it and so can I.




   

Hi Everyone,

     It has been a while since my last post.  I have been fighting a nasty cold that has been running through our family. I haven't had the energy to get to the gym. I am feeling better and I should be back on track Monday.  We all run into obstacles when we set goals, but we have to keep moving forward.
     I know the woman of Marguerite's Place run into obstacles, while they are working their program, but they have to keep on track as well.
 I will be back and working hard.  I can't believe how fast the fight is coming.
   Stay tuned for Press Releases that should be coming out soon.

  I have some fun ideas for future video posts so keep watching for those as well.

  Thanks everyone.

Hello everyone.

Below is a video of some of the Boxing Blast class at Fist Fitness.  It is an intense half hour workout where you are constantly punching and moving. It is a hard workout, but one I need to get ready for the fight.

 

  You also get to see Joe Bellone and Sean Eklund the owners of the gym and the guys nice enough to help me with this endeavor.
    
  As you watch, remember going to the Marguerite's Place website and making a donation is WAY easier than doing the class.   If I can push myself during class, you can push yourself to make a small donation.
  
 I hope you like the video.

Today's workout

Hello all.

It was a great workout this morning.  Joe lead us through a great class and I got to do a few rounds with Tommy. 

Tommy, thank you for working with me and I especially thank you for not hurting the old guy.
 
I have a lot of work too do, but it was good to practice today.
