HBO 24/7 Mayweather vs Marquez

I promise I’m not trying to be an HBO sports commercial, but have you been watching HBO’s 24/7 about the Floyd Mayweather vs Juan Manuel Marquez fight? It documents both fighters’ lives during their training. It shows some pretty extreme methods for getting in shape for their upcoming fight. Marquez especially goes to some pretty unusual steps: drinking 26 quail eggs, drinking his own urine ( not joking ) and sitting in a hyperbaric chamber after workouts. I thought I was dedicated when I work out before the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show-but these guys take it to a whole other level. It is motivating to see how committed they are and what the body is capable of. Floyd is crazy fast with that jump rope! You can watch episode 1 on the HBO website.

Here’s a photo of me when I was training.

    Great shot of you! :) And you ARE dedicated! You inspire me to push my body (I’ve never had such abs and they are only getting tighter!)
    It’s amazing what they do as athletes but drinking your own urine? That has to be borderline crazy! Yuck!
    Love your blog, love how the subjects vary. :)

    I was very impressed with your boxing video. I know surfing keeps you in great shape, but you really seemed to enjoy using a different workout routine.
    If you thought a NASCAR ride was a blast, you should try a ride on a super bike or motoGP bike.

    Ms. M.- Rocking the speed bag! I dig “The Spirit of Ali” there to motivate you. What’s the background story of you & boxing? How did you start? Still doing it?
    And about your blog: To your many fans, you’re not only anatomically amazing, but also bright, fun, warm, energetic, polite, healthy, humble, reverent, and best of all, NORMAL! In summary, beautiful inside and out. So when I discovered your blog, it’s like “Holy Smoke!” I feel like the lucky dork who got a seat next to the coolest girl in school, and got to pass notes to her, and she reads them! Way Cool!! Thanks for the opportunity- ATF

    Wow this is a bit too much with (ahem sorry) ‘eggs’ and ‘urine’ and ‘chamber’…

    For me, seeing pictures like you posted, Marisa, is alone very motivating ! Even when I have a lazy day.

    By the way, these new Jukari candids with you are just amazing, you really look like youre having fun doing it, impressed. Glad there are so many different workout ways, it never can get too boring which is important for me.
