IT'S JUST A STEP TO THE RIGHT
Coach Johnny had me once again work on the "Step Right" move during sparring.
I like that move a lot. He also had me work on the jab because I apparently don't use it enough. I think I jabbed my arm right off this week.
I sparred a total of 11 rounds this week, which aligns with my goals.
On Wednesday, I sparred with a new guy. It was his first time in the ring. At one point I clocked him really well with a straight right to the jaw. I know how intimidating it is to spar for the first time and it was not my intention to do that. I saw an opening and I instinctively went for it.
He returned on Friday but left just before sparring started. I guess he didn't want any more of 'The Brick'.
The morning class with Coach Johnny is getting really busy. We had a record of 11 participants on Friday. That's good and Johnny is a good coach. One of the best I have had. All of the coaches at Cabbagetown are good but I seem to have some kind of an athlete-to-coach rapport with him that I don't seem to have with other coaches. It doesn't;t mean that other coaches are not good, it just means...well, I really don't know, but Jonny and I get along really well and I appreciate his help.
IT'S THAT TIME OF YEAR AGAIN
On March 29 I will be getting a year older and thus a year closer to death but that isn't going to stop me.
I'm still fast in the ring.
Catch me if you can.
