Anyone want to join me for a rousing game of Guess the Bodily Fluid?
Well, tonight was basically the same as last night, just tougher. We got an extra round of cut kicks & combos on the Thai pads. As a personal victory, I didn't skip any burpee rounds. I was no where close to getting all 15 done, but I was moving all the way through.
Then came sparring. Tonight was Hard Sparring, but the coaches had mercy on us & didn't require burpees in between. I don't remember too many specifics. Caught one of Ricketts' kicks & took him down off it. Brian got me in the clinch & drilled me with a couple of vicious knees. My night ended when I was sparring with AJ. Shocker: my cardio sucks. Other shocker: sucky cardio = sucky technique. He was pressuring me HARD & I was trying to circle away. Next thing I knew, there was a shin bone introducing itself to my nose. Begin blood faucet. Missed the next round trying to plug that up & apparently there weren't any rounds after that.
Even barring that, I feel better tonight than I did 24hrs ago & I credit that 100% to my boy Alex. He's a personal trainer & has laid out a simple but solid diet plan for me. Being properly fueled was HUGE.
