Most people can skip this if you are reading this log. I don't want to bore anyone! Here is what I have trained so far:
I wrestled at 125 pounds in high school from November 1997 to March 1999, and later I took 24 wrestling classes at Pitt for a semester in Fall 2003. I lifted weights during the off season in high school and also at Pitt from Fall 2003 to Winter 2004. I learned about submission wrestling from in Spring 2004 but only practiced 3 times and very little instruction was provided.
I weighed over 199 pounds on Feburary 22, 2005, so I began exercising again. In March training began with twice weekly runs on the elipitical. In April training intensified with twice weekly wrestling practice with the Panther Wrestling Club and once weekly ad hoc submission wrestling randori. Very little instruction was provided again.
On April 22, 2005, I joined the CMU Grappling club to continue training over the Summer. Between then and today's date March 12, 2006, I have trained martial arts at the following places (in addition to drilling on my own):
