Life After Fight Club???

The blood, sweat and tears paid off. I've shead 24lbs and 3 inches off my waist after 8 weeks of intense training. Boy does it feel good.


Marc Amphavannasouk and Glynis Corkal won Fight Club. Marc improved by 17% (he lost 41lbs) and Glynis improved by 11%. Well deserved, they worked so hard. 


I have so many photos to share from the final workout. I will post 25 photos a day until they are all up. I also have an interesting music video and final measurement/thoughts video that I will share within the next couple of days.


Fight Club's been a blast! It's taught me the value of boxing and discipline. I now understand how youth will benefit through Pan Am Place. This experience will make the documentary so much stronger...it's also inspired Ervin and I to fight in April. I can't wait. All I do is train, train, train...and I love it.

Week 8...The Final Countdown

We'll this is it. We are going for the gold in all it's glory. No time for bullsh@t, we will train like we've never trained before. 2 hour works everyday (plus the 3h on Friday), two 1/2 fasts and one full and specific training...Oh yeah, not to mention a benchmark a day after our workouts. It'll be hell.


There's not much I can say after this... let's do our best. We've pushed ourselves to the breaking point. We've exceeded our expectations. Finish strong people, finish strong. Here are some photos that I loved throughout this experience. It will kinda recap what we went through. I have more photos that need to get processed plus we had an awesome time at Olaf's studio which needs to shown (I'm still working on it people)
