Heavy Bag and Thai Pads 2min/1min
Tony and Mike alternated Thai pads and Heavy Bag for 4 rounds
Heavy bag

Pads

Round Robin – 30 sec alternating double thai kicks (right-right, left-left) each person did 2 kicking rounds (including me)

Glove Drills
These were done as a continuous Round Robin, 1 minute rounds – 1st time through 3 people we switched aggressor and continued.

  • Left hook cover – both sides working (thrower focus on proper form for punch and receiver on keeping tight on the cover – also motioned the cross return)
  • Jabs – single jabs, defender working on slips to each side as well as the catch

Finisher

1 minute rounds rotate each minute to next station completed 2 full circuits

  • Wall ball – 20 pound ball held at chest-full squat and throw at 10 foot target-catch and repeat for full round
  • Sumo Deadlift High Pull – 65 pound bar – from deadlift to full hip extension with bar to chin- as many reps as possible for full round
  • Decline Ring Rows – on gymnastic rings perform as many rows in full round (body in reverse plank position).

Originally planned on 3 circuits for the “Finisher” but it was much harder than expected at the end of Thursday’s workout so we settled on 2 (I’m still sore today but it was much worse on Friday).
