Training Log: Entry 326
Worked my boxing defense with the fiancee. Much smoother than last week. Shook off a lot of my ring rust and was moving pretty smooth. Did 2 rounds of no-strike sparring. Had headgear for the first volley and then got rid of it. Couldn't see a damn thing. I think I need a better brand than the cheapo everlast one I wear.
Notes:
+Doing a better job of bending at the knees rather than the waist when bobbing and weaving. Apparently also doing a good job of keeping my elbows tucked.
+Did an alright job of "skeet shooting" with my elbows against straight shots
+Slipped a few punches. Not many, but it's a bit hard due to the overhand shots.
-Only a few pats in there, and I was extending too far.
-My parries where way too far away from my body. One ended up clipping my partner.
-Still turtling. Doing a better job of not doing it so frequently, but it's hard not to do with no offense to fire back with.
I was on fire in the second round. Could hardly be hit, and was skeet shooting a lot of shots. Can't wait to spar sometime and see if any of this holds together.
great site. But i have to ask why the hell would you like gerard Gordeau?!
ReplyDeleteI don't like him, I liked his presence in UFC 1.
ReplyDeleteAlittle irrelevant.But what does it mean to "Deload" in lifting?
ReplyDeleteIt's when I reduce the volume I'm working with down to about 70% while maintaining the weight as a means of active recovery. You can only train low reps for so long before you burn out your CNS, but by deloading you allow yourself to keep training.
ReplyDeletelol..ok. Fair enough!
