Training - "You can have results or excuses, but not both."

7/15 - bench, pushups, dips - stretch








Photos: The Cast of The Expendables 3 | Vanity Fair: "How best to think of The Expendables, that ever expanding meat locker of a movie franchise, surely the beefiest in cinema history, which will be offering audiences a third slab of well-marbled porterhouse this August? Sylvester Stallone, who co-wrote all three and directed the first, seems to have conceived the series not only as a throwback to the all-star action movies of the 1960s, films such as The Dirty Dozen and The Magnificent Seven, but also as a full-employment act for the blood-and-guts stars of the 80s and 90s. And, really, you can’t much argue with a movie like the first, released in 2010, which featured a core four of Stallone, Jason Statham, Jet Li, and Dolph Lundgren, with Mickey Rourke on the bench as a tattooed Yoda figure and Arnold Schwarzenegger and Bruce Willis jetting by for cameos. The second, in 2012, added Chuck Norris, Jean-Claude Van Damme, and, for ticket buyers under the age of 40, Liam Hemsworth. While that trio is no longer with us, and Willis and Rourke are also distant memories, trimmed like so much gristle, The Expendables 3 adds, among others, Harrison Ford, Mel Gibson, Wesley Snipes, Antonio Banderas, and Kelsey Grammer, who has strayed very far afield from Frasier."



  
  

Rickson Gracie: “When you train, you should put more emphasis on learning than on competing with your partner.” | Bjj Eastern Europe: "“You don’t learn when you are fighting, bringing in all sorts of tension and emotion. You learn when you are having fun, training in a smooth and gentle way. You need to work on improving your technique until you are comfortable in any situation. Eventually, you will develop a subconscious understanding of the techniques and they become reflexes. Only after you have done all this you are ready to take your natural abilities “off the shelf” and add them back into your game. Now the effectiveness of the technique will be at least ten times better.”"
