My Newest Obsession!
















By now I think you all know what a fitness fanatic I am and how much I have enjoyed taking my MMA/cardio conditioning class at K1 Fight Factory in Vietnam. I decided to take some action shots of class last night during another kick ass workout.

Being instructed by FX and David Minetti has been such a great experience for me and I have looked forward to every Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday night class. They’ve gotten me to push my limits and then some! Each 1.5 hour class flies by and I am left excited for the next one. It’s been really fun working on my technique.

I still remember how intimidated I felt on my first entrance into the studio. There were about 6 guys sparing with each other and I thought to myself “what have I got myself into now?” But after just the first ten minutes I was hooked and have been going back ever since. It’s hard to believe 8 whole weeks have gone by since I’ve started. I’m looking forward to finding a place hopefully just like this near me in MA when I get back.

This week FX even had me lead the Wednesday night group through the warm up portion of class. Then last night he had me demonstrate some technique stuff and stand in the front through all the cardio conditioning. He told me how he and David (his brother) are always impressed with my form, technique, and conditioning which of course made me feel great. Taking part in a new exercise regime like this was just what I needed to get out of my exercise rut! I felt I was constantly churning my wheels and making little progress. All I needed was to shake things up a lot!

Just wanted to share what I’ve been up to 3 nights a week while here, it has definitely been a positive part of my routine and I look forward to bringing back all that I have learned. Plus, if you ever need some to cover your back, I’m your girl!
