Mon 8/6: A very productive day all in all
6:30 am: Fuck. I'm awake. Watch my stablemate Rodel Mayol of Phillipines lose (but in admirable fashion) to my paisa Ulyssis Solis of Guadalajara in a title fight, and the Morales/ Diaz fight that I missed. Farewell to El Terrible and may his legend only grow from here. Ran approx 2.5 today at the park. Those slimmer bands are the shit!

10:30 am: Arrive at Top Rank, greet the boss, and spar 4 rounds with my good friend and rival Kabuki. I MUST LEARN TO MOVE MY HEAD. If not for that and my penchant for dropping my right hand, I might actually have something of a defense. Other than that, I seem to be getting better, and Richey is helping me more and more, showing me things that I'm missing in between rounds and EVEN COMPLIMENTING ME AT TIMES. That alone is enough to spur me on to work harder. After sparring, I work on slipping and ducking using the rope they have strug across the wall in the corner, and then it's off to work (boo).


8:45 pm: working on 100 V-ups and 50 pushups (I need ab work more than upper body work right now). Tomorrow will be a longer day at gym so I'll have more to post then. Firefox out, my nose still kinda hurts.

Tue 8/7: 6:30 am: Watch a fight with Kabuki, then run about 2.5 miles before hitting the gym.

10:30 am: Arrive at gym, my trainer has a press conference today, presumably for his upcoming induction into Boxing Hall of Fame. Anyhoo, he's not around for training today, but that doesn't stop us. After warm up, 3 rounds of slipping and ducking drills along the rope across the wall, then 4 rounds of heavy bag. After that. 2 rounds of moving around with KK, practicing on keeping my stance while catching punches and slipping. Follow this with 4 more rounds of heavy bag, then a few minutes of skipping rope, and then home.

9:15 pm: 100 v-ups and 50 pushups in progress. All in all a very productive day, in and out of the gym. Time for every fighters favorite dinner, CHICKEN BREASTS!!!! AGAIN!!! Firefox out.

This:



The side of it that is on your abs is foam rubber, so it traps the heat. When you remove it, you look like you pissed your pants.

It's a figure of speech. Like trainers in the Gym say "this dude's gonna give you a washboard stomach wether you want it or not" referring to that they're going to be hitting you in the body. It's all about strengthening core muscles.
