Ive been doing brazilian jiu jitsu for almost 9 years now - went from 6-7 training sessions a week to doing 1-2 sessions now after my son was born and gained some weight. Things really do change when you get a kid but ive signed up for a gym now thats 1 min away from me. What im starting to notice is that the older u get and the less time you have for working out and the responsibilities just keep piling up. So im trying to change my mentality from "I need to work out a minimum 60 min a day" to "im just gonna go for a quick 15-20 min run" when I can.
And to be honest the metabolism has slooooooooooowed down alot, which makes the kitchen and watching what you meat more important than actually working out. Imo it feels like its 80% dieting and 20% working out if you are trying to get in shape and be healthier. You can accomplish alot by watching what you eat. Anyways im 105kg today and working my way down to 80kg slowly but surely. Will be fun to come back to this post and see if im 150kg in a year or actually gone down!
