You can't go wrong with Soundgarden "Rusty Cage." Loud, but a lot of people may not remember it.

go ahead people laugh while you get the chance,

Linkn Park "Numb" is a good one not sure if this fits your bill.

If you want unique go for some celtic-music!

For this I suggest Dulaman by the Celtic Woman group....or

Mo Ghile Mear By the Chieftans

All I can tell you about these songs is that the 1st talks about Seaweed.

The 2nd one talks about war basically, in the sense that you are morning the bastards who were lucky enough to fall before you.

If you are interested in another unique one that really stirs my blood comes in the form of Sgt Mackenzie's Lamentation.

I hope these are unique enough for ya.

GSP Workout Day 2 Pull

Warmup

Tabata on the Rowing Machine: 20 sec on, 10 sec off. Repeat 8 times.
High Pull: 1 warm up set of 10-12 reps

Upper Body Pull Cycle:
Repeat cycle 3 times, rest 90 seconds
High Pull: 5,5,5@135lbs
Pull-ups (Underhand Grip): 5,4,3@b/w+5lbs
Medicine Ball Slams: 15,15,15@heaviest ball I could find
Inverted Rows (Overhand Grip) 8,3,3
Single Arm Dumbbell Rows 6,4,4@70lbs
Rest 90 seconds. Then move on to the next cycle.

Abs Cycle:
Repeat cycle 3 times, rest 90 seconds

Barbell Twists: 100,100,100
"Stir the Pot"*: 8,8,8
Leg Raises: 15,15,15

Man these circuits make me feel weak.

Didn't like high pull, I kept getting this clicking in my wrist at the top of it that hurt a bit, not a good sign. Will have to find an alternative, maybe cleans and shrugs.

The barbell twist is kind of weird, didn't really feel a challenge on my obliques so I just stopped at 100. The only real challenge was keeping the barbell on my shoulders and having my hands fall asleep.

Practiced some kicks on the bag trying to feel out technique. Something doesn't feel right.

Sparring in the morning.

Sparring

4 rounds standup with takedowns
4 rounds mma off the fence

Did much in the standup part today, maybe got taken down twice in total and used my range a bit more with jabs and kicks.

On the ground I didn't do as well today, I sat stuck in guard against the fence trapped there. I did get to mount for a good part of a round but was back in guard by the end of it.

The grind continues. Back this evening to hit pads or do the GSP workout. Gym is closing for New Years eve and New Years, gotta find an alternative place to train.

Got a nice fat lip today.

Haha, tech nine is great hype music but I'd have to stick with Einstein if I was going that route.

So shortly after my last post I accidentally dumped a huge glass of water on my laptop's keyboard. The thing is fried. My internet's access is limited for the moment until I get my hands on my girlfriend's old computer or get a job to pay for the repair. Sucks.

It's been difficult finding training again for new years. Holidays are a pain in the ass to have the end of you fight camp on. Today I went back to the town I used to train in and luckily the guys running it were in there cleaning up. Training partner held pads for 5 rounds, and then when he went to work I did 3 more rounds with Darwin, and then 4 rounds takedowns against the wall.

I'm starting to feel sick... poor timing. I'll be loading the cold fx and carrying on as normal. Normal gym schedule resumes tomorrow. 12 days to the fight.

You see GSP's rushfit workout yet?

www.gsprushfit.com

Looks solid.

Looks like the same old stuff but with GSP doing it. Could still be interesting, but it's a major cash grab imo. I'll probably try to steal it at some point

Went in to hit pads during the day. I was feeling off this morning and we only did 3 rounds. Not sure if it's me getting sick or I was still a bit drowsy from sleeping pills, but I was lacking something.

This evening was a different story, did advanced no gi, no technique just side control defense and attack drills and then rolled seven minute rounds. Last round Kajan and I had a real grinder with an 11 minute round. Gotta feel good when you can go hard for the extent of your fight rounds + breaks against someone much better than your opponent.

Sparring tomorrow.
