    Good on you bud way to shake off the idle time and collected dust. We can't do much about the aging process but staying fluid and mobile goes a long way to mental and physical health. Hey and you'd rather be punching bags and mitts than drywall and complete strangers. Always good to get back to a solid routine and a good set on a heavy bag is a great work out. You really grow to appreciate the entire process, timing and it exercises muscles you didn't even know...or forgot...you even had .

    Yes. Went for my first spar today. First two rounds was awful, but by the third round I started to connect a little more. Can't wait until I see the improvement.

    Got my jab working again. Guys can't get out of the way of it. No matter how they swivel their head and duck, I can always time them and pop them right in the face/nose at will. That jab is still there like it never left.

    I HAVE to work on my 1-2/left-right punch set up. I got it off a few times this past Thursday, but it could be a little more crisper... My left hook is SHIT. Utter SHIT. People can see that weak shit from a mile away. I hate it and want to stop throwing it alltogether, but I used to be soo good with that.

    Build on your strength and focus on the good things that you do such as your jab.

    Develop your left hook in your own good time and don't worry about how good it was in the past. I would pretend I am a fighter with a great left hook Roy Jones, Mike Tyson or Joe Frazier and perfect it.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    lol. Yea. Wanna hear something that's weird? I can throw a triple left hook in close quarters or in a loose clench, but can't throw it from the outside anymore. I guess it will take time.

    Yea... It was always natural for me. But what I missed in my younger life was a male/father figure who understood what he had and how to build the confidence in me with that. I could have been a champ.

    Now I know what to do with my son. You have to treat him like Cus D'Matto treated Tyson in the early onset. Build his mental confidence and his physical. Be there for him and the like...
