Legs felt sore from sparring but this wasn't too tough at all. It may be superficial pain from getting kicked rather than muscle soreness. I honestly can't tell for sure.

Swiss ball leg curl-ups and weighted crunches with a 50 lb kettlebell

Now that I can do pull-ups I'm thinking I will procure the means to do dips. Left shoulder has been bugging me lately. Maybe the added variety over just barbell pressing all the time will be good for it or maybe dips will prove even more stressful on that area. Worth a try. May also try reverse-grip benching. Wish I didn't leave my Swiss bar in Portland.

Sparred yesterday. Am over being sick but still congested. Could not breathe through my nose and sparred with an open mouth. Combined with a guy who hit way too hard made for a painful combination. It was only one guy this time doing it, the big dude. Man, it's really annoying to go through this every time. Blew my nose between rounds in the bathroom because I was a snot monster and blood came out.

The other two guys were great. Still punishing enough to dole out consequences but not blasting me by any means. Used kicks more effectively than before, but nothing above the thigh. The confidence for that will come in time. Getting closer to finding my range with hooks. Still falling short but I'm grazing people now. Threw a few more body shots than before too but not enough.

Went home with my front teeth and nose killing me and back out to George's after. Unwinded with some micheladas, bad movies, and Resident Evil Revelations 2.

On another note, returned my ex's belongings to her earlier in the day and got a torrent of abuse through text for it. So dumb. Bruce Lee's quote from Enter the Dragon came to mind.
