Pushed and pulled the sled last night with two 45 plates and two 50 lb kettlebells stacked on. About 5 minutes of total work. Then went on a 10 minute jog and practiced a shadowboxing footwork drill (lateral step jab + right cross as the back foot follows suit and lands, step opposite direction and repeat the strikes in reverse order, then transition into pivot hooks for all 4 angles).

This morning was awesome. Woke up 15 minutes before my alarm so after downing a protein shake I played a round of Street Fighter Alpha 3 as Akuma, then did 8 of Dan John’s ABCs with 50 lb kettlebells, and then had time to make 3 eggs with my usual morning weightgainer before heading to work.

Easing into ABCs very gradually due to my pissy elbow, but just being able to do a single rep is a huge improvement from earlier this year. There was a little pain today but as long as I didn’t rotate my wrists and kept the press portion with my palms facing each other, I could do them.
