TGIF

It's the weekend! Well, soon enough. Couple things of note: Hosni Mubarak resigns; Title Boxing Thai pads arrive; 100 burpees.

-100 burpees & 50 pull-ups (9'58)

This time I substituted regular pull-ups for the L-sit pull ups, and as predicted, I reduced my time by approximately 2 minutes. I bracketed sets of 10 burpees and 5 pu's with 20 burpees and 10 pu's, to complete the 100/50. The first set of 20 burpees took 1'06, the last was much longer.

My kids are pretty exited about the arrival of the Thai pads. Can you say mawashi geri?

Thai Pads

I just ordered some Thai pads, not to be confused with pad thai, from Title Boxing, and can't wait till they arrive. I expect they'll come in handy for the frequent karate training sessions that come up with the K4L crowd. What I really look forward to, however, is training my girls to throw proper punches and kicks. In the future, if someone ever accuses them of hitting like a girl, he'll be rubbing his jaw with a look of sad remembrance.
