3/19/2013

Inverted rows: 2x10

Bar stretch: front and side kick

Tried to do some dips; my arms won't even let me start the motion. I've got a lot of rebuilding to do.

Tried some jumping pull-ups and negatives; 3 of em.

3-step sparring: 1 and 2, 5 times each. Getting more comfortable with them, and moving quicker.

3/20/2013

10 minutes of Wrestling with Kendall: worked on switch and standing switch.

Pre-class stretch.

TKD class: 6 - 7. One-steps, low green and white belt, several times each. Forms were Do-Kang 1, Se Jong, and Yoo Sin. Then moved to kicking class. I was doing kicks on BOB, and decided to target the neck with as many kicks as I could. That was fun. Kicks we did were front leg side, back leg side, spin back, and switching away spin back kick. The spinning kicks were to the body. Then did front and back leg round kicks. 10 kicks on each leg. Good work out.
