    Speaking of conditioning, did the deck of cards workout today.

    2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10, Jack red were pushups of that number
    ditto black for squats

    queen king ace of all quits were burpees.

    thats about 130 squats, 130 pushups, 60 burpees.

    The **** thing? The last 3 cards were ace, ace, queen. I powered through that **** though, and then died.

    Took a break every 12-15 cards or so, for a couple of minutes.

    It's very possible to do without a break, I'm not as well conditioned as that however. I had a headache going on for going too fast too quickly however.

    The best way to do things is to keep track of your progress and try to improve a bit every week. Over-training will only get you an injury. If getting in shape was easy and quick there wouldn't be so many fat boxers these days.
