Indeed. A breath of fresh air.

Again did a short bike ride in the morning, 12.9 miles to be exact.

Biked 5 miles to the gym, moderate intensity. Did 15 minutes skipping and rotating limbs for warming up. After that did two rounds of shadowboxing. Next 12 rounds on the bag, working on various things. Cooling down consisting of rotating limbs and stretching muscles. Biked the same 5 miles home again, high intensity.

Felt great but there was nobody to spar with except a heavyweight that is known for 2 things. 1) his insane power and 2) his inability to hold back. I declined his offer for a spar, I want to remain good looking. Better luck tomorrow.

Thu Aug 28

Biked 5 miles to the gym, moderate intensity. Warmed up for about half an hour, skipping, rotating, etc. Two rounds of shadowboxing. Two rounds on the bag. After that sparred about 8 two minute rounds against a southpaw, and 4 or 5 against an orthodox guy. Cooled down and biked 5 miles home after that.

Felt quite good in sparring, a bit sluggish from the last few days but not too bad. Boxed very defensively, both of them have a very high tempo and like to pressure. At first I boxed in the open, keeping some distance but I got tired of it and decided to stand my ground. Went to the ropes a few times on purpose to get some rest despite everyone telling me not to, I wasn't being hit and I needed a breather. Overall things went okay.

Welcome dude. I see you joined this forum long before a lot of us, but rediscovered it.

Thanks. Most of the time I'm on another boxing site, but the training section here is much better.

Fri Aug 29

No boxing today, had to work. Spent 10 hours loading and unloading flight cases filled with light and audio equipment in and out of trailers. Paid workouts

Sun Aug 31

Another day of gruesome manual labor. Another paid workout. Which is good because I fucking hate lifting weights in the gym, this way I still get some strength workouts in. I'm a roadie so it's lots of lifting, climbing with heavy objects, etc.

Biked 5 miles to the gym. 15 minutes warming up, 10 rounds on the bag, about 5 on mitts. Cooling down, 15 minutes. Again no sparring due to lack of people my weight. Biked 5 miles back.
