Crossfit
I mentioned this on the old blog that went the way of betamax due to life's circumstances, but I must make another pitch for crossfit. I wasted a lot of time in the gym on a purely bodybuilding regimen completely missing the 4th dimension that is crossfit. I can barely think of a sport it wouldn't enhance. You're table tennis would be off the hook and Ms. Pacman, forget about it. The connection to endurance and anaerobic sports translates well. Martial arts synch well to crossfit. I only have two suggestions with crossfit: give it a shot and scale it to your level. I have a harder time with the latter. The dumb dude in me wants to play keep up with the Navy SEALS when they've been training all day long 7 days a week and I fight scum and villainy with quick tongue in a courtroom and fancy words in a pleading. I can hang with most of what's going on over there, but some of that stuff is just crazy. The best advantage to this type of training is is application to nearly any sport, and it is a killer workout in under 30 minutes unless you are new to "fight gone bad." Ease into that one.
