Had an excellent 2 days of boxing. On Wednesday we partnered up and worked on body shots, followed by shadowboxing with dumbbells. During stretches at the end of class, coach looked over at me and asked "Have you always been flexible" because I was touching my toes.

Thursday was a real grinder. We did calisthenics and dumbbell exercises for most of the class and he frequently announced that he's not starting the timer until everyone has started after many of us were already going. During the bit where we partnered up, it was nonstop reps of the same combo on the shield. After my first turn, my partner said "Nice, those muscles are functional!" We ended by throwing as many jabs at the shield as possible over the course of a round with our partner counting. He remarked that I got around 200.

I was planning to bench today after work but yesterday's class had a lot of grinding push-up reps and taking the 3 lb dumbbells to near failure. I'm thinking I'll do my roadwork instead and lift tomorrow.
