sourpuss's training log

Ok, well you posted that at 4:30 am here. Haha. Today I'm going to work on two things A: my conditioning. I'm going to a cycling class for an hour. B: my movement in the ring.
I have a tendency to get really flat footed and slug away. This upcoming tournament, I'm fairly certain I'll be fighting the only gal I lost to this year. She likes to throw on or two punches and run other other side of the ring. Every time I so much as flinched, she was out of there. So I'm going to spend several round just practicing cutting off the ring and making quick movements. And of course stretching and abs.

Yes I knew what time it was there. I just figured I'd have a razz waiting for you when you woke up.

Sounds like a good game plan you have for fighting this girl, and it sure helps knowing what you are up against. If you start getting lazy and want someone to gripe on you, even from so far away...I'm your person!

I watched the video from our last fight and the only time I scored was when I had her trapped and went to the body and then up top. Granted, it was computer scoring and this next one will be clickers. I still need to be able to get in her face quick and land.

Thank you for the motivation, this is great because my coach is going to be out of town for two weeks and I'm going to need the extra ass chewin.

Good morning, sunshine. Time for your daily ass chew. I heard we are sending down some seriously in shape boxers to this big tour, so I'm thinking you better get yer butt in gear!!

What you plan to work on today? Me ima be running my track and field and flirting with the babes, so I got the day off, but that don't mean you can...

[sourpuss]

I hear flirting with babes is hard work.

Tonight should be good. I have a feeling I'm going to be the only one at the gym with my coach so we'll really get to focus on what I need to be working on.
I'll be there for two hours and I imagine he'll have me do some sprints and stair running and some abs. If not, I'll do those after we train. Probably spar and do some mitts.

I'll have a full report when I get back.

[sourpuss]

Bah! I feel a sore throat coming on. I will not get sick damnit.

Last night was a really good workout. Lots of sprints and intense bag drills. Worked with another guy in the there on trying to get inside and cut off the ring. I've always been taller than my opponents so this is proving to be a challenge.

Not sure what my coach has in mind for me tonight. I'll find out when I get there.
