MMA and me; day 95

Kickboxing was a good class yesterday. We started off with checking a high 10, and countering with a 2-3-2-mid 9. Next, we checked a high 9, and countered with a rear had superman punch followed by a 3-2. This one felt really awkward, and timing the superman punch was a little difficult. I kept throwing punches with my feet off the ground. Last, we worked a simple kick combo. A rear leg push kick, to mid 10. With this, it's important to not try and reset your stance after throwing the push kick, as it makes the transition to the 10 longer.

Before we finished off with planks and flutter kicks, our coach said he was going to let us have a little fun. Everyone lined up, and we got to practice this.

To say it was pretty cool is a bit of an understatement. Big ups to Jathan for holding the pads for the whole class, and standing in there when most of us had no idea what we were doing. A great way to end a fun kickboxing class.


SHARK TANK!!!!! Man I love days where we get to rock the shark tank. Even Coach Troy grappled for a while, and that never happens. Plus to top it all off, I got a new pair of shorts! Great day back in the gym.
