Friday
I've fucked up my middle finger on my right hand earlier this week. It hurts when I close it or squeeze my hand. I'm not a 100% sure how it happened. There's no swelling or bruising... so I don't feel like it's an emergency. Oh well, I have some time off next Tuesday afternoon and I need to see a doctor about my toe (It's fucked up too). I'll have him check my finger just in case.

I went to the doctor today. He checked my hand and said it was nothing serious. Just have to take it easy while boxing. Also had to have a chunk of my toenail ripped off, another ingrown nail. Hurts a little when I move (mostly from the pressure of the bandage on exposed skin.

Week 6
Weighed in at 136.7kgs.
Weights still going up. I averaged 3,190.7 Calories, 146.8g Fat, 333.0g Carbs, 140.5g Protein. This week I wanna lower my calorie intake to 2700 and bring the fat and carbs intake. I'm gonna have to be real careful here. This week is the beginning of a very stressful two months at work. When I get stressed my automatic reaction is to go for comfort food... which means junk food.

-Heavy bag, practiced 1,2,1,2,3,4. One of the older boxers came over grilled me on all my mistakes and I spent the rest of the time with him working on correcting them.

• My hands were too low and not close enough to my body
• Hook was too wide and my elbow was too low when I threw it
• Jab wasn't being thrown properly.
• When throwing my cross I was turning but not driving with my legs.
• Sometimes when I threw my cross my right foot would leave the ground.

Cardio
Swam 1km, Front crawl. It was fun going back to the pool.

Boxing
-20min Treadmill, 1.7km. I had a hard time with this today.
-Stretching
-Punch Outs, 3min round x2
-Punch Outs #2, 3min round x2
-Jab/Cross, 3min round x1
-Punch Outs, 3min round x6 The trainer came over and didn't think I was sweating enough so he told me to do more punch outs.
-Sparring! One of the older boxers, Kim, agreed to spar with me. This was my first time sparring and it was an eye opener. There's a lot for me to learn from this. Here's a quick rundown of the one round.

I put the head pad and gloves on... and off we went. First thing that came to mind was how slow I am. My punches and movement were slow enough and predictable (I only seem to move forward and back) that I only landed one jab the entire round. Every time I tried to move in and hit him I would end up eating a jab or a hook. I was able to keep my guard up for the first minute but after that I used my head to block the shots. I fared better when we clinched (in between trying to catch my breathe) with a few body shots. I think I might have been punching too hard then. Oops. Overall, it was a good time. Even though I couldn't do much and I was gassed as hell by the end of the round.

I'm not sure how often I'll get to spar again. It depends on the other boxers. Really, I'm too big to spar with the others and for them it's probably not worth it. Who knows. If I do get to a spar again anytime soon it will be more for my benefit then theirs.
