I didn't work out hard today at all, but I did walk through Se-Jong hyung a few times, concentrating on foot placement while transitioning from move to move, stance to stance. I have some funny footwork in this form, but I really like it. I also practiced some kicks, without a warm-up, so I was careful not to be too speedy.

Chest/triceps

Bench press: 195x8, 205x6, 215x4

Dumbell bench superset: I did one-arm dumbell presses, followed by pressing with both arms - 8x50 each arm, then 4x50 with both x 3 sets. These made my arms feel like Jello!

Dips: 2x5

Forearms

Gripper machine: 3x15x25 lbs.

Wrist curls: 3x15x20 lbs.

Abs

Roman chair crunches: 2x20

Side raises: 2x20x30 lbs.

Did 1 hour of Combat Hapkido/Defensive Tactics. I am really enjoying these sessions. We usually start with Combat Hapkido curriculum, and then begin to branch off and modify the moves to work for our LEO situations. I am learning a lot. I also had Traditional Class from 6:00 - 6:45 tonight; I had to leave early to go to Open House at the middle school with the family. :)

Seated row: 120x10, 130x8, 140x6

Abs

Physio ball crunches: 3x15

I taught Kids Class from 4:00 - 5:00 today. Before the class, I had about 10 minutes, so I spent that time going over my new form again and again. I did it 5 or 6 times, working on power and footwork.

I helped teach the last half of our Kids Class today from 4:30 - 5:00. From 5:15 - 5:45 I helped teach Orientation. Black Belt Class was from 6:00 - 7:00. This was a really great workout tonight. We went over some advanced basics sets, and did some kick sets and stretching in between each. Toward the end of the class, we did strike and counters, with 1, 2, and 3 strikes and counters, and strike-kick counters. Fun class, and I was tired.

Taught Kids Class tonight from 4:00 - 5:00. Before class, I pushed out my form, Se-Jong, 5 times. I did it easy at first, and the last few times put more power in it. I think it is coming along, finally.

-Countless number of reps/squeezes on the hand grips trying to get my for arms and grip built up. Bought them tonight and went over board.

-Tried to stretch myself out pretty well probably could have done better.

-80 thigh rubs

-20 push ups, should of done more

also I'm about to go to a few reps of curls only two 10 pound weights on the bar right now so thats not anything impressive, maybe some jumping jacks to get my tried so I can sleep, and maybe a few more thigh rubs or beach balls to work the abs some more.

Tonight I had Black Belt Class from 6:00 - 7:00. We worked on stuff for our next upcoming testing, and got a pretty good workout. My instructor wanted to look over our forms for testing. He had one of the students go before me, and gave some tips for him to break them down and tweak things a little. When I did mine, all he said was "You got it down," and he kind of smiled. No pointers or tips for me, though! Maybe that is a good thing? For the last 15 - 20 minutes of class, we worked on Hoo Sin Sul (self-defense). Me and a friend also had a grappling session prior to the class, and after the class, we had another session. I got my butt pretty much kicked, but it was a good time, and boy, did it make my arms tired! I would guess that we did around 15 total minutes of grappling.

Congrats on getting down you material for you test, also was it 15 straight minutes of grappling? If so I'm extremely impressed me and my friend mess around from time to time and grappling wears me out really fast.

I'm about to start on my nightly work out in a few minutes I'll post a log if I get the chance.
