18th Sept 07.

Was doing a bit of internet chat with mates in England until 4 in the morning, but had to be up for work at 6. Got to the gym around 1 40.

Did 4 rounds of skipping. Today was the first time i managed a round without tripping.

4 Rounds on the bags. Two on the heavy bags and two on the light bags. Did 3 rounds on the double end bag.

Due to lack of sleep, a junk food breakfast, still being unfit from my 3 weeks of drinking and eating in Europe, and 32 degree heat (with humidity) I found today really hard. Nearly threw up a few times and was blowing for air constantly.

I still have the problem from pain where the thumb meets the wrist. I changed my wrap so there is less around the palm and that helped to make a better fist. My coach is going to show me his wrapping technique tomorrow. The pain in my hands isnt as bad these days, I think my body is getting used to jarring pains shooting through my bones !! Lol.
