My husband has recently taken up a new hobby .  He got the MMA (Mixed Martial Arts) bug from his friend and he is absolutely addicted .  I knew this would happen eventually .  I don’t mind it too much, but MMA style fighting just does not make very much sense to me as a sport.  That’s just my view of it though.  Obviously there are a lot of people out there who have a vested interest in MMA as a sport.  Maybe after some time training with my husband will help my interest in it and I’ll be able to see the validness of it as a sport.

My husband is so sold out on MMA that he wants to start training like an MMA fighter does.  He wants the MMA training gear, MMA hoodies, and a pair of these.  I definitely support this venture, but I have a feeling that it’s going to get a little pricy.  My husband has always been into fitness though , so he already has a lot of the training stuff he needs to do this. I’m hoping that I’ll be able to use some of the MMA training gear to work out with.  Trust me, I don’t want to be a MMA fighter but I am emphatically interested in maintaining my health .

I’ve only ever seen one MMA fight in my life, is that sad?  It was on televison once and my brother was watching it and it seemed like the craziest thing I had ever seen.  I know that there are rules and stuff, but when I was watching it it totally did not look that way.  It looks like the athletes just beat each other to a pulp using any means conceivable.  I don’t know why guys are so into fighting in general, let alone MMA fighting.  I guess it’s a chance to testify their effectiveness.  Anyway, we’ll see how far this interest in MMA goes with my husband.  I’m just hoping he doesn’t want to become an MMA fighter.
