Pre-class kicking:

front and back leg 45 degree round kicks, 10 each.

front and back leg round kicks, regular chamber, 10 each.

front and back leg round kicks, with a downward trajectory upon contact, 10 each, all these on powerline.

TKD: 6-7 pm. Was working through basics, and pulled my left thigh muscle again rechambering a jump front snap kick. I did finish out basics, was pretty well shot after that. So frustrating. At the end of class, I got to hold the shields for others to kick, doing round kick drills. Would have loved to get into that. Also helped a high orange belt out on his form.

Saw a similar circuit on a boxing training site and tweaked it slightly. I set the timer for 20 minutes and went through the following four exercises as many times as I could.

(1) Sumo deadlifts, 5 reps

(2) One-arm kettlebell clean and jerks, 5 reps each arm (clean each rep)

(3) Sledgehammer strikes on tire (10 reps per side, 20 total)

(4) Roundhouse kicks on the heavy bag (10 reps per side, 20 total)

They recommended going up each round with the deadlifts, but I just chose a moderate weight and stuck with it the whole time. This one was a killer but man was it fun. Going to definitely add this to my collection.

That does look like a good time!

4/23

Still nursing a busted up toe and sore ankle. So a lot of stuff is out. Heck, it's all I can do to limp thru BJJ.

Abs

Bis

Tris

Shoulders

More abs

Who would have ever thought I would miss running on my off days. Does anyone remember what it feels like to not hurt anymore?
