MMA and me; day 156

Boxing was another day of reactive defense. A round each of parrying the jab, catching the straight, and catching the hook, all followed by a 2-3-2 counter. For more detail, check out day 154. We finished off with a round each of trying to punch the medicine ball out of our partners hands, and then two rounds of medicine ball belly passes. (It's a real drill, I swear!)

Grappling was just that, grappling. I went for close to 45 minutes straight with my gi on, got tapped about a hojillion times, and started to get very frustrated, but I never quit, and I did my best to stay calm and maintaining even breathing. I was a little mentally fatigued by the end of the day, but I remain confident in my abilities. I will not be broken, and I will not be deterred.
