HI arwsf.
MMA does include boxing, grappling, and conditioning…and if you find a ladies class, I recommend taking the time to go. The process is amazing and it makes you feel great. On top of that, it’s pretty cool to have some jab, cross, and power front kick combos in place, if not just to show off…BH.
Continue what you are doing, and you will grow stronger, iyH.
I tell my students that the mind and the body are the only two machines that the more you use them, the better they run.
Hi cinderella.
I dont mind the exercise, really, but I do need the motivation. What happens to me is I would go to the gym and get results in about three months, and then start skipping to the point of not going for a long time..and then starting over again.
What I do now is get in the door of where I train. Once on the mat, the instructor (sensei) does not let you off the hook. He gets you to do a little more than you think you can do, and it is fantastic. One does not need to exercise to have weight come off if they are watching what they eat. Many people work out hard and dont watch what they eat, and do not lose the unnecessary pounds.
Hi oomis1105.
I think type 2 is the kind people can reverse. Is that true? If so, I hope you get to that point very soon! Hatzlacha!
