Stephan Bonnar:
UFC 110 Blog No. 2 | 01.15.10

Five weeks out. Staying healthy is the main focus. I train so hard that recovery is really the most important thing. I’m sure you have all heard of “RICEing” an injury – Rest, Ice, Compress and Elevate. So last week, after hard sparring, my body is banged up. I had what alcoholics refer to as a “moment of clarity.” I thought, “Why not just RICE my whole body?” So after an ice bath, I put on some tight compression clothing and meditated on my inversion table – elevating, legs up. Then I took a little in nap in the compression clothing and Voila! A new body to beat up again!

Despite the number of punches I take to the head, I still managed to remember my mom’s birthday. She deserves a lot of credit – after all, it’s my mom that drove me all over Northwest Indiana to do pee wee wrestling and tae kwon do, day after day, year after year. So thanks, Mom, and happy birthday!

I’m always asked what other hobbies, aside from fighting, that I enjoy. And usually I wouldn’t say – but what the hell, I’ll try to open up a little more for you guys. Nothing beats dumping a bunch of ammunition at targets in the middle of the desert. And boy, oh boy, does it go fast playing with fully automatic weapons! Today was mostly M16 and Uzi work, but as a nice treat, I got to spit a couple belts out of the M60.  If you want to see a little for yourself, go to firearms.atactv.com.
