OK I'm kidding, sort of... Get me fitter would be more apt.
I've just discovered that I have a training session (brazilian jiu-jitsu) in 2 weeks and I might be in line for a grading. I've had a rough summer in terms of being on holiday, being sick etc and my fitness is horrible at the minute. If I do get put forward for the grading then I'll be expected to roll (live grappling) for a full hour.
So basically, can you smart guys/gals recommend me a training program to increase my cardio as much as possible in a short time?
I have a treadmill, spin bike and weights bench at home. I'll also be getting into the club as much as possible in the next few weeks to rack up time on the mats.
My weight is also out of whack. I've put on about half a stone in the last month but I've been eating terribly. I know from experience that I'll be able to lose that half a stone in the next 2 weeks again but my main issue regarding the training session is my poor cardio.
PS I know this is my own fault and I know it's a fairly unreasonable thing to expect much improvement in such a short time but it is what it is and I'm up the creek without a paddle so I'll take any advice I can get!
