The Matt Hughes Report

Monday, February 12, 2007

Had a good time this weekend with my family, was somewhat busy with a camera crew and this and that, but all in all it was a great weekend.

Had been reading a book called The Edge, just a bunch of stories of successful people. Been reading about Dan Gable and he's got a great quote in here:

"When I lifted weights I didn't just lift to maintain my muscle tone. I lifted to increase what I already had and to push to a new limit. Every time I worked I was getting a little better. I kept moving that limit back and back. Every time I walked out of the gym, I was a little better than when I walked in."

I just think it's a great quote, it definitely fits the role of a professional athlete, but I just think it's a great life quote and it could be applied to anything.

Once again, I'll be training for my fight and try to stay healthy as the flu bug is floating around.

Last week was somewhat of an exciting time. My little girl, Hanna, would get on her hands and knees and I thought she was going to crawl. I was hoping that before I left to go train this week that my little girl would crawl for the first time, but it doesn't look like its going to happen.



For anybody wondering, Hanna will be six months old on the 21st.

Just got back from Florida this morning, where I did a seminar for my buddies Frank and Mike.

Once again this will be a good working week and I'm looking to have a good year. I hope to be in the best shape of my life this year for my three fights. I'm told that I'm fighting Chris Lytle in March, but I haven't signed anything yet. Chris is a tough guy, so I'm looking forward to a challenging fight.
