I wasn't going to post this, cos some people think I just stick stuff on to boast, but wtf.

The Sheikh arrived this week, out of the blue, with 5 of his sons although I thought there were 7 at first.

2 of them turned out to be the bodyguards to the lads and are Turkmenistani ex-special forces.

They don't speak a word of English, or Arabic as far as I could gather, and kept themselves strictly to themselves.

I take all this stuff with a pinch of salt but I expect obviously wealthy Muslim lads walking around London are 'at risk' under the present climate.

I woke earlier than usual on Friday so walked down to let the ducks out and put the sprinklers on to save the gardeners a job.

The 2 bodyguards were on the pontoon, next to the lake, doing their training and exercises ........ FFS, really scary stuff!

If I wasn't worried they'd have snapped my neck, like a twig, I'd have filmed them and posted a clip.

Freaky frightening stuff.

If you don't mind, mate. I'd really like to hear what they were doing for training.

It was stuff I've never seen before mate, really shocking stuff.

It was that impressive I got our lass out of bed to watch ........ from a distance <laugh>

It was like they were in a trance and doing kicks & punches in really slow motion for about 4/5 minutes.

Then, all of a sudden, they exploded into a really fast repetition of the whole routine that lasted about 20 seconds.

They'd have gone through you like a combine harvester ........ when our lass asked me how I'd tackle them I said 'With my legs' <laugh>

Thanks Smug,

I think, like you, I love to see high intensity training at it's finest. Now, I'm living out in the sticks, I'm looking for new and innovative ways to train around here, because I don't want to go back in a gym to do it.

I would have been enthralled by them <ok>

I trained in various gyms, for 15/16 years, and have met all kinds of people ....... these lads were something from a different planet.

Previous to them the scariest bloke I've met was a bald headed 6'6" Italian cage fighter.

Either of these lads would've done him I reckon ......... they were so quick and aggressive I think the flurry of blows would've eventually taken him down.
