AM CONDITIONING
I had a terrific sleep Monday night and woke sharp at 5.00am. I got out of bed and had a casein shake with coconut milk.
When I arrived at the gym there were a couple of guys there that Gerry had organised to train along with me.
Warmup
(4x) 10 Station Circuit. 30 on/10 off
Tough Circuit with great mix of resisted exercises for the entire body. Pouring sweat to finish.
KB Complex
Gerry set the 3 of us up to attack this complex. 3 stations; 2 working, 1 rest. The goal was 5 rotations.
Whatever it is about these exercises it just clicks me into another gear.
The two guys broke after two rotations. I just wouldnt quit and was told to stop after my sixth.
Condition is there.

Sparring Drills
About 30 mins of Specific sparring working on various defences / attacks and movements.
This new guy in his thirties ticked me off and I was an asshole after that.
Yes, he was wrong, but I was a douche thereafter.
Circuit;
Just brief bodyweight stuff.
