3 New Guys but no Spackler

4 regulars and 3 site FNG showed up to do the following.

4 station rotation of heavy bag work, punching mits, jump rope/sit ups, shadow boxing….followed by light sparring (no head shots).  Each guy had the opportunity to go 2 rounds.

Welcome Strawberry, Heartbreaker and Beeker to F3 Fight Club, hope you all enjoyed and will come back.  Still waiting on Spackler to show up since he gave me a verbal a couple weeks ago at Rebel Yell.

Fight Club on Ice

4 regulars and one site FNG showed up to throw punches.

The Thang:

3 stations of heavy bag (over a sheet of ice), shadow boxing partner, and mitt work.  Finished out with 2 sets of 2 rounds sparring 25% (no face shots)

Thanks for coming out, it was fun sparring and seeing how the PAX ranges 25% during sparring.  Note to self when stepping on Haggis foot during sparring, do not politely stop throwing punches while stepping off his foot or he will light you up.  Mic Check Ali, welcome to Fight Club, cannot wait until future pre fight and post fight interviews…..your trash talking is A+

Looking for some new faces at Fight Club.

Small Saturday crowd, however a good time as always.  I will be honest posting a couple days after you will forget counts and exercises, but seems close enough….My counting was at it’s best today for some reason meaning to stop at the usuals 15, 20, 25…whatever and doing the final cadence at 24, 16, 19, 32…hard to explain just had to be there.  A pleasure as always leading this fine group of men look forward to doing it again.
