Today was leg day. Here’s the set list.

I’m still using BodySpace to figure out which exercises to do, but I’m back to logging with pencil and paper. I did the prone leg curl because my gym doesn’t have a seated leg curl (that I could see), and I’m doing bent knee leg raises on the ground instead of hanging knee raises. I absolutely hate dumbbell lunges.

Nik and I fenced a few passes in the parking lot. I found myself getting frustrated because I’m learning all these technical skills that aren’t doing me any good in actual fights. I’m in a weird place where I would benefit from getting back to basics (so I need drills), but I also would benefit from bouting more (so more open floor time).

I met up with Mike and Eddie tonight for Krav. We came up with a plan to get ready for CIC. I felt like it was a good use of my time, and I’m really getting excited about going (even though I’m still apprehensive).

Last night my finger hurt so bad that I skipped Krav. The ambient pain was intermittent, at least. I was super bummed. I’m tired of being hurt, and I need to get ready for my test at the end of the month.
