Hey man like the old saying goes life's not about the deck that you're delt but how you play your cards. Most of the guys I'm matched up against are shorter than me. Sure it's easier for me to back them down with my jab. But on the other hand it's easier for them to bob and weave. There's this one guy at my gym who's only like 5' 8 or so and he's one of my toughest opponents. Not because he's big,not because he's tall,but because he can bob and weave like a mother****er. Being taller or shorter doesn't mean that you're better. It just means that you have to work with what you're given.

incline dumbell hammer curls 50 x 5 x 2 45 x 10 x 2 55 x 1 incline dumbell chest flies 80 x 5 x 4 (not full extension) neck bridges front hold for 100 count x 4 back 130 reps x 3 (not full extension) I've been doing hammer curls alot lately because it seems like every time I try to lift something with my bottom wrists facing upward my right wrist feels like it's going to break. I don't know why but it keeps getting jammed for some reason. Maybe i'm just not giving it enough time to heal properly.
bodyweight calf raises 30 reps 50 reps 55 reps lateral side jumps 2" base height, 11" width 300 reps 5 sets I have to admit that I didn't go all the way straight through on some sets. Sometimes I would have to take a break for a second or two because I felt like I could barely move. But I made sure that when I did take a small break that it didn't last for over 3 seconds. In between each set I took about a :30-1:00 break. Overall I felt like the lateral jumps were a really great cardio workout. I always know that I did a good job with my cardio when I feel my heart is sore and I have that feeling right now.
Regular boxing routine I've added about 2 extra rounds on the heavy bag and 2 extra rounds on the uppercut bag to my workout 25 deep clap up pushups 3 sets 400 situps laying flat on bench 2 sets (not full extension)
