9 kg overweight, over 6 years since my last fight, haven't trained in more than 4, chronic tendonitis in both knees, nowhere near fit, and I've agreed to a fight in 4 weeks.

I suppose it's one way to motivate yourself to get going.

Tell the promoter to have a back-up, as if you are that unfit and dive straight back in to "fight training" then the tendonitis will flare up.

Prepare for the bad moods in not being able to eat (severe calorie deficiet diet)....and being able to perform when severely dehydrated....
Thats the only way you are going to drop 9kgs in 4-weeks (unless you are a super-heavyweight)

Good luck.

PS Just seen your profile. If you are at a temple show in Thailand, you probably wont have a weigh-in. LOL

Chokdee

Lucky bas%%%d, I'm 25k over (it's my thyroid honest). Let me know how you manage to keep it to 9.

PS I know a butcher in BKK who's got a bacon slicer, that might help you shift a bit.

Cheers

get a colonic, that'll shift about 3-4kg of un-needed shit.

I reckon 40 mins on the exercise bike in the morning and 1 hour of swimming in the afternoon should compensate for not being able to run.

I dunno how I kept it to 9. I thought it was a lot to put on to be honest.

I will bear the colonic suggestion in mind, (:

I dunno what kind of show it is yet. I'm aiming to lose about 1 1/2 kg a week if I can.

Thats alot.

FatsDomino: Are you on drugs for your thyroid problem?

Can you recommend any ? I was trying to flush out the infection with Pizza's and English breakfasts.

Cheers

:)

You saw where I was going with that one! LOL

I like your style robitusson!

Just bingo punch him in the first 10 seconds - sorted!

robitusson, whereabouts are you training in BKK?

Robitusson is a class name, if that tendonitis plays up just rub a bit of tusson into it lol.

Hellfighter "robitusson, whereabouts are you training in BKK?"

In a place near China town. Are you in Bangkok yourself?

certainly am, been here almost 2 years

9kgs is nothing!!!

LOL

Losing 38kg would have been easier if a branch of Dominos hadn't opened up round the corner.

1 or 1.5 kilos a week is Very acheivable and drink loadsa water...
and fats Domino get ya ass back to your bolton-thai-boxing-club roots
you fought form us at 55 kilos fatboy
whats changed?
dont say age
as ive put on errrrrrrr
nothing maybe a pound !

yes im mental
i will die trying lol

Robitusson, that's quite a challenge good luck with it and let us know how you get on.

Hope your opponent doesn't read on Ax, if he does I'm sure there'll be a few low kicks aimed at them knee joints!

Cheers.

The gyms called Singdongthai btw Hellfighter. Know it?

Lost 3kg so far and the tendonitis seems to be settling down lately.

haven't heard of it mate, as there are too many Gyms in this city

might have to pay the Gym a visit and grab some video of the training... can you ask the Camp Manager if it would be alright?

thanks

I will indeed.

Well they decided to put me in a fight....this evening! No weigh in. Some show in Samut Prakhan.

How did you get on pal?

nicky

how you getting on... fightin on ones day notice you always were a nut? what happend the H dip mate?

i hope hes not dead :-|

Hope he hasnt had his leg kicked off... :(

no internet connection at the local hospital? :(

or he is to busy eating....lol

Well, basically I got walloped. The ref stopped it in the second round. The guy they matched me against was a trainer from a gym near the old airport and had so many fights you'd think I was just trying to exaggerate if I said how many. So I didn't really have a chance.

I got him with a couple of leg kicks, but didn't land a single punch in the whole match. He knocked me down in the second round with a cross and landed a kick to the head after that which I blocked but still left me seeing stars.

The promoter had said they were putting me in with a new guy who had 3 fights. Dunno why the need for misleading people but anyway.

Still I got 4000 baht out of it, I get my name in the Thai boxing magazine here, I broke my 6+ year spell of inaction, I can say I fought a local in Thailand (a big deal for me) , and it was an unbelievable buzz.

"nicky

how you getting on... fightin on ones day notice you always were a nut? what happend the H dip mate?"
Should be starting it in September hopefully. I'll be back to annoy you soon. How are you man?

congrats on getting in the square jungle mate... was the trainer from Chuwattana Gym by any chance?

Dunno. I'll find out. He was handy anyway. Bloody sore arm today. (:

Nicky
