Made Weight…

T made weight easily all on his own. He fights tomorrow. 

More Upfit to the Trailer…

Scot has been doing more to upfit the trailer. I’m not sure what some of the pictures are of but I do know that it’s going to help with the equipment in the trailer. He also received the gas tank he ordered and will be getting that mounted as well. I love seeing him so excited to have something that works better for our business than what we had. What we had was falling apart. What we have now gives us more room to do what we do. 

Here are the pictures:

The pic above is a template that he used to cut down our chemical rack to suit the current needs of the business. 

The chemical rack is mounted in the new trailer. Underneath the rack will be where the spare tire for the trailer will be stored. 

Happy 4th!

Just want to take a moment and wish everyone a very Happy 4th of July. Enjoy celebrating 🥳 Independence Day with your friends and family.

T’s Credentials for Nationals…

T received his credentials for Nationals today. He is so looking forward to this opportunity to do his best and let the chips fall where they may. He’s also looking forward to all that he will learn at this event. 

Getting Excited....

We are just days away from traveling to USA Taekwondo Nationals being held in Jacksonville, Florida.  T is more prepared than he has ever been for this event.  He is looking forward to this opportunity to go and do his best and see where the chips fall.  Win or Learn this is a step forward to helping him become all that he can be in this sport.  He values every opportunity that he has to grow and do his best.  

As an added bonus I will get to see my cousin and my Aunt on this trip.  T has only met them once and he was really small.  He doesn't remember the visit at all.  This time I will be sure to get pictures.  #family1st

December to Now....

Check T out from December 2022 to Now😱😱😱!!!

KPNP & Daedo Electronic Systems Battling for Olympics...

The two electronic systems used for Taekwondo sparring events are both vying to be able to represent at the Olympics in 2024.  It had been posted that KPNP had won the bid and would be representing then it was quickly taken down on social media so someone may have jumped the gun too soon in assuming they would be the ones winning the bid.  We will have to wait and see who wins out in the end.  

Fuel Tank for Trailer...

Scot just ordered this fuel tank to put on the front nose of the trailer to fuel our machine.  It will be easy to fill at the fuel pump and there will be no fumes inside the trailer.  It's a Win Win!  Can't wait for it to arrive so that Scot can up-fit the trailer with it.  It's a:

JSD 10" x30" 10 Gallons Spun Aluminum Gas Tank / Fuel Tank 1/4 NPT Outlet End Fill Truck/Hot Rod

T Flexing....

We are in T-R-O-U-B-L-E!!!  T won't be able to maintain staying in the weight division he is currently in next year even though many athletes do that.  He will have to move up.  Check this picture out:

 

Things to Know about Creatine....

T recently started using this supplement because his coach said it would be good for him.  We did our research though before putting him on it.  It has a lot more good things than I thought.  When his coach mentioned him using it my mind went immediately to him bulking up big time because most body builders use it for that reason alone.  This video however was very informative on educating on all that creatine does for your body.  

Is creatine performance enhancing?

Consuming creatine, either in foods or supplements, can increase muscle creatine stores. Research has also shown that with the right training, creatine loading can enhance an athlete’s ability to perform tasks that require short bursts of power (less than 30 seconds in duration). However, not all athletes benefit from creatine since the training program itself remains the key component of success.

Is creatine prohibited?

No, creatine is not prohibited. Although creatine can have a small effect on performance, the effects are not guaranteed and the specific training program remains most influential.
