PugilistStudent's Training Log

Im taking some time off, Im just not feeling it lately I think with the low motivation and the funny little pains in the knees and elbows I may be overtraining lol: ya think?). So Im taking a break until after finals, Im still going to maintain my fitness by doing the same ol stuff 3-4 times a week but no boxing. I may start with some basic gymnastics stuff just cuz I like it but thats it. Dont expect to see me here for a few days. Peace.

 

I usually do. Look farther into my log, I get it under 8 minutes.

 

I'll check it out later when I have sound (Im at the library). Thanks.

 

Thanks man, I'll be starting my log again in a few days. Im finished finals now but I started a job at a lumberyard so when my knees and feet get used to walking on cement 10 hours a day I'll be back at it, it'll be soon. Im waking up at 5am now though...It'll be a ***** to get enough sleep and get a morning workout in before work...

A 10x10 drill is pretty simple, throw a 1-2-1-2-1-2-1-2-1-2 (10 punches) combo as fast and hard as you can then duck/weave/sidestep quickly and throw another 10 punch combo immediately (10x10 punch combos). Simple and specific I quite like it.

 

Posted so I have a reference. Things not included are things I have to work in slowly or things I tend to do more sporadically.

-Im just doing a bit to test my knee (I think its healed now) and to see if I'll get sore, I dont want to be sore for work. I get tonnes of forearm & grip work at work since its a lumberyard and I do wrist rotations and levers with the dunnage when Im putting it away, I average about 10+ sets every day for each hand that way, plus I still have to work. My fist feels like a lump of stone right now its so solid.
