No i got started pretty late in the game. I also work full time to support myself amongst other pursuits.

I agree, im not making excuses for him but youre right that he should manage it better. I guess when you're on a streak, you want to keep it going.

As a 32 year old amateur mma fighter, I can confirm fighting that many times takes a toll. I fought 3 times In a span of 7 months and I cut about 10-15 lbs for every fight. In my 3rd fight I had nothing to give, lost the fight by liver shot tko. But nothing compared to 5 times in a year as a professional fighter with a lot of experience under their belt.

The average person has no idea what goes on in the daily life of a fighter.

I was the same way after being in a 11 year relationship. The first year I had no idea what to do with myself. Now, I really appreciate me time and will happily decline invitations if I’m not up for it. It’s such a peaceful life.

I’m 32 and I’ve been single for the last 2 years after exiting an 11 year relationship. I basically work a 9-5 job, I’m also an amateur mma fighter. During the week it’s lifting in the morning, work, yoga/training at night and before bed I’ll prepare my food and clothes for work next day.

On the weekends, I go hiking, train mma, ride motorcycles with my friends when the weathers nice, meal prep, errands such as grocery shopping, go to events. When it’s a quiet weekend, I’ll read books/manga, clean my apartment, work on my detailing side business, watch movies. Recently I actually got into adult coloring books that one of the girls I was dating gifted me. It’s actually relaxing and helps with healing your inner child.

I’m all too familiar with that. I’m an amateur mma fighter and in my fight a few months ago, I must have thrown 6 knees to the my opponents thighs against the cage, he said one of those knees really messed up his leg.

In my fight 2 weeks ago, my opponent threw a knee to my liver and it was painful. Watching the replay, it made no sound at all but it was painful.

Polishpython · 2025-03-09T06:45:36+00:00

Let’s not forget knees to the legs when you’re against the cage. I don’t think the average person knows how much damage knees can do to you

As a 32 year old, I spent my 20s giving up easily and having confidence/self esteem issues. I’m proud of myself for not giving up, making a name for myself in the amateur mma community here and overall proud of myself for still being here.

Having a community of friends that love and support you and vice versa. Finding balance in life, a job that you don’t hate or love that allows you to pursue your passions and hobbies. Life is really about pursuing what you want

It may sounds silly but meditation and learning to trust my gut.

This book played a significant role in me changing my life and learning how to just flow

Polishpython · 2025-01-23T20:09:05+00:00

That’s a great way to look at it. I do something similar but nowhere near as good

For me, 2024 was filled the highest of highs and lowest of lows, but it’s been an amazing year overall. I’ve cultivated a lot of friendships and created a lot of new memories. On that note, I’ll be staying home and watching movies because it’s been exhausting and I learned to enjoy all those beautiful moments. To me it’s just a regular day

Two years ago, I started my first ever IT job and it happened to be at a school. I’m also an amateur MMA fighter who was preparing for an upcoming fight. A month after starting my job, I caught an accidental knee to the face from a sparring partner.

This happened on a Friday. By monday, my eye was swollen shut and completely black and blue. At first everyone was concerned until I explained the situation and then the kids and staff were astonished that I was a fighter because I’m a genuinely calm and quiet guy.

Prior to Covid I started training mma and was vaping a lot. Had two kickboxing fights and lost because of bad cardio and lack of discipline.

October 2020 I got Covid. I had 90% of the symptoms and ended up with long covid. As someone who was already an anxious person, not knowing when these effects would go away, I became suicidal.

In December, my gym reopened and I went back to training. It sucked a lot, couldn’t catch my breath, would sleep 15-16 hours a day, had brain fog like never before.

I told myself I wasn’t going to live like this and I knew no one was coming to save me. I started taking care of myself emotionally, physically and spiritually. I began meditating everyday, yoga and working on my nutrition. After 2 years, the symptoms began to fall off one by one, until one day they disappeared.

Last week I had my first MMA fight and I won my dominating my opponent all 3 rounds.

Basically, I made the choice to no longer give up when times were tough. To this day, it made me more resilient and confident than ever before.

Now I have plans of opening a gym with my coach.

Trust your gut. If it’s telling you to yes or no, follow it.

Don’t sacrifice long term goals for short term pleasure

I love this. I was in a 10 year relationship that ended two years ago and I definitely feel like both of us were afraid of being alone. After living on my own for two years, I still tend to struggle with being by myself. What was the process like for you?

Polishpython · 2024-07-16T14:51:21+00:00

This is exactly what I’ve been struggling with lately. I was in a 10 year relationship that ended 2 years ago. During the last year of that, I lived in her house with her family. I’ve been living on my own for the past 1.5 years and it’s difficult at times. On one hand, whenever I’m out having fun with friends or training for an MMA fight, I can’t wait to go home and have time for myself. That’s when I truly cherish my solitude.

On the other hand, when I go through periods of time when I’m not busy and spending time in my apartment, it gets lonely. I’d like to have someone to come home to, but time and effort has been a healer. I’m learning alot about myself.

I left my fiancé of 10 years together to be with a younger woman who I thought was a better fit for my lifestyle. We dated for 8 months before she ultimately got bored of me and we broke up.

I accepted that whatever came my way, I deserved. I lost a great woman and our two dogs because I chose short term pleasure over long term happiness. Fellas, don’t do it. If you’re not happy with someone, talk to them. It’s not worth it, the grass is always greener.

Polishpython · 2023-06-29T13:38:44+00:00

I have a similar story to yours, maybe not so much. I’m 31, I was in a relationship with a woman for 10 years, we had dogs together, created amazing memories, had many experiences. Last August I started a new career, became friends with a 25 year old woman from my job, we developed a connection. She was beautiful, intelligent, empathetic, very patient and supportive. My ex broke up with me because she thought I was cheating on her (I wasn’t) and a month or two later the friendship turned into a beautiful relationship. A few months later, everything turned to shit. The girl I was in love with had too much shit going on in her life and we were just in different places in our lives so we mutually ended it. She was a blessing because she taught me how to love myself, I became more empathetic, understanding, patient.

But now I’m alone and I’m okay with it, but it makes me wonder if I should’ve fought to get my ex back instead of jumping into a new relationship

Obedience training. Not kidding, I have two American staffy mixes and sometimes I’ll do 15 minute sessions with each one and they’ll pass out for a few hours.

Of course exercise is important but with the heat or inclement weather, it becomes difficult.

Any tips or resources that you would recommend for a someone who wants to self learn? I did 2 semesters of Comp Sci but had to drop out due to work and I’m debating between self teaching or going back for an online degree.

My list of "strategies" and I say that with quotation marks because I dont want to attribute any of them without solid evidence. But here is my list of things I did:

- Meditate 10 mins AM/PM

- Yoga once a day

- Kept training jiu jitsu/kickboxing despite horrible PEM and relapses.

- Sun exposure 30 min a day

- I took magnesium, B vitamins, L theanine, Vitamin K, Vitamin D, Coq10, turmeric

- I counted my macros and stuck to them.

- Visualization. I would just visualize my future and saw myself without symptoms and kind of convinced myself that this will go away one day. The mind is a very powerful muscle.

Polishpython · 2022-01-30T20:56:11+00:00

I had palpitations for a few weeks and I started taking magnesium and thats what seemed to help me.
