    Martial arts schools that have contracts...

    I wouldn't join. Most martial arts places are happy with pay as you go, a contract makes them sound more interested in your money than you. ditch them.

    How do you deal with children if they arent yours?

    pretty sure there are no quick fixes for that situation. sounds like the kid needs stability and some decent care.

    How do you deal with children if they arent yours?

    whatever you do Kindred, you need to work that out with the girl first. 'cause if you're committed to the girl at all, then essentially you're playing dad to the kid, and so you need the girl to be okay with you acting with respect and authority. that's my take.

    Self-taught from SS and youtube. Definitely room for improvement though. Would really benefit from some coaching I suspect.

    Ptc Sydney

    Sounds great ceffo. Marrickville is a top location - fairly central to the city, but not a mega traffic jam, and v.good rail connections, I think stick with that. plus it's close to me (inner west). looking forward to more details.

    the what u saw at the gym TODAY thread

    7am in my gym, I saw a guy wearing a belt doing machine bicep curls. Not sure how the belt was helping with that. really, a belt for bicep curls, on a machine?

    double sessions and recovery?

    I think you'll find weights @ lunch then mma in arvo fine. The type of training is different enough in terms of the strength and demands that mma requires that doing weights earlier in the day shouldn't be much of an issue. I used to do weight training followed by krav maga sessions in a similar...

    Feet twitch when you sleep? Lack of magnesium?

    Nah, I haven't tried anything else - haven't been too much of a problem for me, just every now and again. Post up if you do find anything good.

    Feet twitch when you sleep? Lack of magnesium?

    Yeah, sometimes I'll get twitches or full-on spasms which wake me up and then my leg feels tense for a day of two. lack of magnesium, or dehydration, are both said to be possible factors, so I'd keep on eye on them. Otherwise no one seems too sure. I think lack of hydration has been a factor for me.

    Caffeine alternatives!

    I really like coffee, and not just for the caffeine, but when I'm on creatine I tend to limit caffeine to 1 cup of coffee a day, usually zero, and I actually find I'm more awake for most of the day. try cutting to zero caffeine for awhile - eating well, sleeping well, and training might take...
