My sport transformation (Ball games -> Fitness -> Calisthenics -> Slackline -> Handstands -> Jiu jitsu)
EN
Stage I. - skinny, weak & ball games
This stage started when I was like 3 years old and ended around 17. I found working out for stupid people. I was suuuuuperskinny and supertall. That made me pretty good in volleyball and basketball. I even trained basketball in a club for a while. Also I sucked and to this days still suck at football.SK
Chudy, slaby + loptove hry
Toto vpodstate zacalo ked som mal 3 roky a trvalo do nejakych 17tich. Ako som spominal naposledy, hocico spojene s fitness a posilnovanim som povazoval za sprostost. Bol som ultrachudy a vysoky - preto mi dost siel volejbal a basketbal. Zaroven som bol a stale aj som futbalove nemehlo :D
Stage II. - big, strong & gym
Around 17ish, I've had a bet that I'll gain 5kg in 3 months. That's where my whole current anti-ball sports career started :D I've started going to the gym almost every day and it continued like that for the next 2-3 years. I went from 66kg to 78kg in a year. I can't say by any means that I was big or bulky. But compared to my previous standards, I was. Here should be the pic, but I'm just too ashamed of my Schwarzeneger wannabee photos to share them :DVelky, silny & posilka
Okolo 17tich som mal stavku, ze za 3 mesiace dokazem pribrat 5 kil. To bolo vpodstate to, to nastartovalo cele moje sportove nadsenie mimo nahanania sa za loptami. Chodil som do posilky 2-3 roky a zo 66kg som sa dostal na 78. Nemozem vonkoncom povedat, ze som bol velky, ale bol som vacsi ako predtym :D Ok, tu by mala byt teraz foto, ale moje schwarzenegrovky sem fakt postnut nemozem :DStage III. - lean, strong & calisthenics
Then I slowly started to shift from lifting weights into calisthenics and bodyweight workouts. It just made me similarly strong but I wasn't that bulky. And I liked it. To look lean and then surprise people with 20 pullups :)Chudy, silny & kalistenika
Casom som pomalicky zacal z gymu prechadzat na kalisteniku - cvicenie s vlastnou vahou. Kliky, zhyby, drepy na jednej nohe, sprinty - pacilo sa mi, ze som nebol taky nafuknuty a v tricku som vyzeral akoby ani necvicim no sila mi ostala.
Stage IV. - balance & Ido Portal
Then I've realized power is not everything and killing myself to do 20 pullups instead of 18 is just stupid. It was still just about looks. As Ido Portal says:Muscles without skills are reverse engineering. I've stumbled across this video of his and it completely shifted my perception of working out. I've started playing more with balance and learned handstand or slackline.
Rovnovaha & Ido Portal
Potom som si uvedomil, ze sila nie je vsetko a tyzdne sa snazit len aby som spravil 20 zhybov miesto 18 nema zmysel. Ako vravi Ido Portal:Svaly bez schopnosti je inzinierstvo naopak.Po tom co som videl jedno z jeho videi sa mi kompletne zmenil pohlad na to, preco sportujem. Zacal som sa viac hrat s rovnovahou a naucil stojky alebo slackline.
Mentioned Ido's video / Spominane Idove video
Stage V. -Ido, Conor & BJJ
Then once again, after I got better in balancing, Ido stepped in. once again. And poor me had to change a field once again as well :D In 2015, he posted a video with Conor McGregor and I was hooked. His mindset was just sooo inspirational I had to try some martial arts. After doing my research what works and what doesn't, BJJ was an obvious choice IMO :)Oh, Ido, uz znova? & BJJ
Po tom, com som sa naucil balancovat na slacku a aj na rukach, prisiel zasa Ido s jeho dalsim videom. A ja som zas a znova kvoli tomu musel zmenit brandz :D Ido postol video s Conorom Mcgregorom (2015) a vedel som, ze musim nieco podobne vyskusat. Po googleni ake bojove sporty vlastne existuju a ktore funguju a ktore nie som sa rozhodol pre brazilske jiu jitsu :)
Mentioned Ido's video which changed my direction again/ Spominane druhe Idove video, ktore zasa zmenilo moje sportove smerovanie.
Stage VI. -???
Well, as you can see, I'm changing my main sport pretty often. So what's next? Honestly, I dunno. But I really really hope I'll stick with BJJ for many many upcoming years!! :) I love change and constantly learning but it sucks that with every change, there's less and less time for the other activities. Mainly because change doesn't mean I stop doing the previous ones...Means I still try to lift, do calisthenics, handstands, slack etc...not as often as before, but I do.Co je dalsie?
Ako ste si asi vsimli, menim moje sportove zameranie relativne casto. Co je teda dalsie? Hm, neviem...popravde vsak ale dufam, ze pri BJJ ostanem este vela vela rokov a nic sa menit nebude! :) Zmenu a vkuse skusat nove veci ma ultrabavi, no co je na tom najhorsie je, ze s kazdou zmenou mam na predchadzajuce veci menej casu. To ze zacnem s niecim novym neznamena, ze na tie predchadzajuce veci sa uplne vybodnem..stale ich robim, len menej.
nice to see some pics of your BJJ class =) stick with BJJ and you can still learn many other things on the side also =)
yepp yepp true that. I guess just the effective time management is needed :D
really cool stuff dude - pinnacle of knowledge - cool you are playing around with things - "play" is everything.
Exactly! You stop playing, you stop learning..
Pěkný souhrn :) Taky jsem v mládí postavou připomínal komára, ale pak jsem někdy po dvacítce začal cvičit a během pár let přibral 20 kilo. Teď si váhu držím plus mínus stejnou, jenom se v závislosti na různých faktorech mění složení hmoty :D
kks 20 kil su uz solid "gainz" :D
