More people showed up for sparring last night. Rotated between 4 guys in total. Got told by the coach to throw a little harder. I did with my hands but my kicks remained pretty unthreatening the whole session, which I got feedback on from Daniel. To be honest, I was focusing entirely on accuracy because when I kick hard in the middle of a frenetic sparring match I hurt my toes. Today almost all my kicks landed where I wanted them to! Next time I'll put more power behind them.

My jab found a lot of victims. There would be times when I knew the jab was getting predictable and I could see my opponent's eyes locked on my left, and I still hit them clean.

Left quad and right shin + calf are in pain from getting kicked, but nothing debilitating.

Worked through the soreness and forced in a pull workout before work.

Same problem as last time despite checking the best place to put the mats on the ground. Bar rolled off. Need to figure something out.
