Back to the gym today after a massive bout of flu.

Its still affecting my asthma a bit.

3 rounds skipping

3 rounds shadow boxing

4 rounds on the heavybag

2 rounds on the mitts, doing hook and uppercut combinations.

3.5 rounds on the double end bag

1.5 rounds skipping

2 round shadow boxing, drilling the combinations I learned before.

My trainer has been praising my work on the mitts lately, which is nice. My combinations are more fluid and my balance has improved, apparently.

Still had some breathing problems, hopefully I will be 100% tomorrow or the day after.

23rd Feb

3 rounds shadow boxing

4.5 rounds heavybag

2 rounds on the mitts

2 rounds on the heavybag

3.5 rounds on the double end bag

1.5 rounds shadow boxing

No skipping today, there is still a bit of a twinge in my shins,

Had a different trainer work me on the mitts. Preferred it with him because my usual trainer holds the mitts in a weird position and sometimes its hard to catch the mitt sweetly.

21st march 08.

Been back in England for 3 weeks and put on a ton of weight due to binge drinking and eating. So I am now 75kg and my stamina will be a bit reduced.

3 rounds skipping

3 rounds shadow boxing

4 rounds heavybag

4 rounds double end bag

2 rounds on the heavybag giving it a proper pounding.

I didnt feel as unfit as expected.

I also bought one of those exercise balls for sit ups and will use that a few times per day. I also bought a top notch pair of running shoes for a bit of road work, although they feel a bit small. Went for a run at midnight, dont know how far but it took twenty minutes.
Ive also decided that my crap running trainers that I leave in the gym might be the reason for my shin splints from skipping so i will buy another good pair to use at the gym.

22nd March

2 rounds skipping. Shin Splints playing up again

3 rounds shadow boxing

4 rounds heavybag

4 rounds on the mitts. There was a new trainer in the gym today, and the main trainers asked me to go on the mitts with him cos they wanted to have a look at him. I quite liked his mitt style, he was moving around the ring at fast pace, having me cut off the ring and throwing jabs and one twos.

Did two rounds with him and then 2 rounds with my usual trainer. He had me drilling the same 10 punch combination over 2 rounds. i could barely lift my arms by the end and was pretty close to throwing up. God knows how many punches I throw when he works me on the mitts.

3 rounds double end bag.

The speedball hasnt reappeared for a while.

No running tonight due to my legs being sore and I am going on a massive drinking session.

It's great that your doing a log to check your progress but i don't see the point in putting all this work in and then going on a massive drinking session.

25th March

4 rounds skipping.

I got myself a top notch pair of heavily cushioned running trainers and I could feel the difference in the impact on my legs immediately.
There was still a bit of tightness when shadow boxing in my right calf and arch of my right foot but nowhere near as much as usual.

3 rounds shadow boxing

6 rounds on the heavybag

6 rounds double end bag

Was supposed to do a bit of padwork but one of the pros accosted my trainer so that went out the window.
