Muay Thai yesterday. First time this year going without contacts. Completely forgot I wasn't wearing any by the time I was working, so that's good. Via instructed drill, worked on slipping my partner's jab with a counter to the chest as I weaved under his attack at the same time. We took turns doing this. Eventually added a leg kick which threw both of us off because we were stepping out with the wrong leg. Got it down and then added a 3, 2, and a knee to finish it off. I chose the tallest guy there deliberately. To be honest, when I faced off I noticed I was exaggerating his size in my head and when at a distance and he didn't seem tall when we went at it. Finished off on the bag. I felt a light twinge in my right hamstring tendon when throwing a left roundhouse and took it very easy when supporting with that leg afterwards. I am restricting myself to three days a week at this place for now while I powerlift and continue to gauge how my body is doing in regards to recovery.

Have been doing a deload week. Also had a good cheat day on Saturday. Pizza and cheesecake may or may not have been involved.

Muay Thai Monday went well. One of the less challenging sessions I've had, but got some good opportunities to work on technique. Mostly did boxing this session.

Finished up my deload with a press workout Tuesday, going up to 95 with the bar. Did some pretty heavy landmines up to 115, but lower then what I normally do. I feel it's very important to keep the heavy stimulus constant so my body doesn't lose muscle mass during this diet.

Speaking of which, my body composition status is progressing terrifically. I'll post some progress pictures soon, but I fit into a size 34 pants now.
