Monday- Monday I was pretty sore from Sunday morning and evening workout- so I ran somehwere near 6 miles on the bike trails.
tuesday morning- I didnt have much time in the morning but I stopped by the park by my office and did a xingyi combined for that takes about 1:30 to perform. this is my warm-up. I did another Form set that takes a little time- Cheng Bagua to get my stiff morning spine nice and twisted loose and good leg stretches from drop stances -pu bu.
I lastly did a Yang Taijiquan form for Warm-down before the office with focus on reverse breathing which is used in pilates. total workout time was around 15-20 minutes.
tuesday- Evening. I went to the new gym X-Sport and checked out the on the situp bench first- where I proceeded to work on pilates situps all the way down and all the way up on a 45 degree angle. I counted around 150.
I then went to one of the floor mats and did more ab workout after some shadowboxing iwth light hand weights. I worked a routine similar to what we do at Muay Thai-
10 V-ups
10 alternating elbow crunch ups
10 crunch ups
20 leg lifts
20 crunches
20 supermans
20 second back bend
20 leg lifts
20 ankle grabs
20 berry pickers
1 min. plank
20 belly ups
My Friend Kaiss from Tunsia showed up. He is learning some boxing from his cousin who trains at the YMCA. We spoke on agreeing to do some focus mitt work later. He went to warm up on jump rope while I went to do a kettlebell set similar to my boxing Coach Derek Sierra does who is Cross fit certified.
Kettle bell round-
10 over head lifts
10- hindu push ups
10- horse stance dips
10- chin raises
10 – full lifts over head
10 push ups
10 – chin raises
10- alternating arm lift to hips
After some water and recoup- Kaiss and did focus mitts. I had him started with 3 two minute rounds so he could get the feel of my focus mitt style so he could learn from it and return the favor when he holds for me. After each doing 3 rounds straight, we alternated on 6 more rounds.

1 lap breast stroke
1 lap back stroke
1 lap freestyle
