How Does Mike Folden Still Get to the Gym After Having a Baby?
at 2:13
Answer
Mike Folden told Geek at Sea that a job, a side business, and a newborn left one slot for the gym: before sunrise. He wakes at 5:00 or 5:30, trains before his wife and the baby are up, and then goes to work. Evening jiu-jitsu no longer fits. He is home around 6, the baby is down around 6:30, and a 6:30 class would erase weeknights with his son. He also will not keep one routine. He rotates the gym, jiu-jitsu until an injury, yoga, and kettlebells. He had not planned to be a father. He and his wife had been together 13 years and married almost three, delayed because he was unsure about children.
