sourpuss's training log

My opponent got the flu.
More time to prepare, right? (looking on the bright side)
I'm hoping that someone will turn up but the chances are slim to none.

That is a bummer but i guess when the weather is cold and you're NOT sick while other people are then you're doing something right with your training.

I always found I'd get sick easily when i was in full training and it annoyed me but if you don't that's something to be proud of.

You have more time to develop your game plan too and make some of the counters you need automatic so even under pressure it will be there when she is ready to compete again - probably a bit out of condition after being sick.

Thanks everyone. Starting tomorrow I'm going to get back in to training nazi mode. I feel like I've been a bit lazy lately and I know I haven't been doing enough. I've been getting a lot of sparring but it's with a gal from my gym who is very new and VERY slow. So I think I may have actually taken a few steps backwards. So I'm going to concentrate on my style and conditioning on all my workouts outside of the gym and in the gym as much as possible. I think I may just use sparring with this gal as a conditioning exercise and hope that I don't pick up too many bad habits. Anyone else ever had this problem? This is the second time this has happened to me.
