Anyway, today after work I went to Striking Beauties for Marcin's Core Conditioning Class. Koala showed up for Marcin's class, and so did two other people who don't usually do Marcin's class, so we had a lot of fun.
Zach's traditional boxing class was next, and while it was fun, I died a little bit.
My knuckles have been hurting lately- Zach suggested I put regular dish sponges under my wraps, over my knuckles to cushion them.
I tried that, but it felt really weird, and Anthony yelled at me for it. Well, not really yelled, but shook his head and ripped the sponges off my hands and threw them on the floor, then he rewrapped my hands without the sponges, mumbling to himself about "damn sponges" the whole time.It was great- the wraps, although the mini-fit was entertaining too! The wraps cushioned my knuckles and stayed in place. Now only if I could wrap my hands that way myself.
I asked Zach how long gloves should last me, and he said he has had his for about 2 years. I explained why I was asking, and he checked out my gloves. Zach said they seem normal, so I guess my hands are just defective.

I did abs with Zach at the end of class, and it seems like no matter how much ab work I do, I can't get any stronger. I felt like I was going to die, but I was working with Zach, so if I wanted to stop, death would be the only way out!
I made it through the laughably easy (for a normal person) ab workout, and the stretched out for a few minutes.
After Zach's class, I sparred 2 rounds with Sonic and one with Knuckles. Sonic and Knuckles are both slightly crippled- Sonic's ankle bothers her if she bounces too much, and Knuckles managed to kill her knuckle, (I know) and can't throw any rights for a few more weeks.
So, I did 2 rounds with Sonic, and the did a round of just jabs with Knuckles.
I've sparred with just jabs before when I sprained my right wrist on Ginger's face, but I don't remember it being this difficult!
I think it is because I have been working on my right, and it is one of my favorite and most powerful punches, so when I can't throw it, I really miss it!
