Elvis Mutapcic blog week 2

Hey, what’s up everyone I’m back for blog number 2!  Here’s what’s been happening in my life since the last blog…

Monday morning I started my usual weekly routine.  I leave the house at 4am for 5am practice at Spartan Strength to train with Nick Rouse on my strength and conditioning.  From there I head to work at Helena Industries where I work a full day.  After work I head to Des Moines MMA to train with Anthony Porcelli and the rest of DM MMA family; were we work on our Wrestling, Jiu-Jitsu, and Striking.  When I finally leave the gym it’s about 8:30pm and I head back to Ames.  This is a quick look at what my weekly routine looks like.

Friday night my girlfriend I went to the MCC Trials at Uncle Buck’s; where she declared me Designated Driver since I can’t drink because of my coming up fights.  The fights were pretty eventful; with a lot of talented fighters and great action. A few amateur fighters from Des Moines MMA fought hard and didn’t disappoint.

Saturday was my official day of rest and relaxation.  I spent the day at home with my girlfriend catching up on how school was for her during the week and watching movies.  Saturday night my brother and his girlfriend came up to Ames and we all went to the Ames Haunted Forest; once again I was the only one not drinking because I am in training mode for my upcoming fights.

Sunday morning I went down to Des Moines to run “the stairs” with the Des Moines MMA Team.  When I got home from “the stairs” I took a quick nap and then headed to the gym for a work out of my own.

Somebody once told me to set my goals high; that’s what keeps me going week in and week out with all the tough trainings and time commitments.  If I don’t push myself hard enough then I will never reach my goals.

Till next time…
