Did bag-work Wednesday and Thursday. Focused on in-fighting and getting into the pocket, but being mobile and not sticking around after attacking. Gleamed a YouTube drill once to try getting in, attacking, defending, attacking, then backing off as necessary. Finding a lot of growth from slowing things down and then accelerating after starting that way.

Also went on a 30 minute jog after bag-work on Wednesday. Enjoying it getting dark earlier for my runs.

Last night:

Squats
415 x 5
470 x 3
530 x 1

Drop-down to 405x5, 315x10, 225x10, 135x10, 45x10

SSB good mornings
60 x 15
150 x 14, 12

So my powerlifting meet next week has been delayed for the third time due to COVID and restrictions on mass gatherings indoors. Move it outside, guys!!! The small relief I have from my weight doing weird things (it's either crazy glycogen bloat or my scale is shifty because my weight jumped from 203 to 207 in a few days) is miniscule compared to my hunger for competition, so this feels really disappointing.
