3rd week of boxing.
I can clear 5 km at the 45 min. mark regularly now on the off-days.
maintaining the skip rope for at least 1:30 minutes before tripping.
Also, I'm now at landing a clean double jab + straight combo on the speed ball, though the follow-up left hook + right body blow/upper needs more accuracy.
Tried a full-power body blow on the mitts yesterday. Right hand shot forced trainer on his toes The windup is still horrible however - anybody can see it coming, so it needs more polish. The trainer kept smacking my head when I dropped the arm too low to ready the punch
Left hook beginning to land with a loud *snap* instead of a dull thud.
Doing about 150-200 reps on abs (2 sets), doing jab-straight on the contraction phase, with 2-lbs dumbells per hand.
