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.

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.
