Round 4: Aching to Box again

Sign...was about to go shower when I heard jazzy chill-out music playing outdoors. Like a moth to a sputtering flame, I drew to the kitchen window and saw a DJ spinning at the local outdoor beach chill-out spot, Musikpark, all lit up with beach torches and the works.



If it weren't for the coming exams and my goal of sleeping earlier tonight, I'll just gel up the hair and head straight there and make new friends.

Als ich unterwegs zu duschen war, hörete ich von draussen jazzische Musik. Wie ein Falter zu einer heiße Flamme, ging ich sofort zu dem Fenster bei der Küche. Die Musik stammte von Strandgut und die Umgebung war mit Strand-fackel sehr schön beleuchtet. Es sah sehr anziehend aus.



Leider wegen der kommende Klasuren ging ich nicht. Apopo wollte ich heute auch früher schlafen. Naja, ist aber kein großer Theme. Ich warte bis die Freundin wieder bei mir ist, und dann können wir so oft wir wollen besuchen :)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It's been a good 3 weeks since I've boxed or sparred. Mainly again, because of the exams. Even though training is only twice a week, I take it up a notch by doing my road work and conditioning twice to 3 times a week in the early mornings or evenings.



Am really missing training on the sandbag and reflexes training. Somehow the body doesn't feel right. Those who body-build or run would prolly know what I'm talking about.

Well, these days I'm just keeping the body toned with daily pushups of 30 - 50 and 30 lower body squats. My only consolation I keep telling myself is after the exams, I can box, train and run as much as I want. Even till I puke. Hahaha....no no I'm not so hardcore.

Don't wanna puke my protein to waste:P


My Boxing Equipment: mouthguard, handwraps and of course, red boxing gloves


After the papers, one of the things on my to-do list is to check out free sport unions(ja you read right - you can join w/o paying membership fees) in Mannheim that offer boxing. I've already
found one in Frankenthal. It costs 6 euros per month and training is 4 times per week, 1800-2000 hrs. As of late, I've been learning and boxing at the University Gym. It's ok, but after 5 months, I'll love to take my boxing skills to the next level.

I'll keep you readers informed about my progress as time goes. In the mean time, if I've managed to pique anyone's interest, you can check here and here out. Stay tuned for updates!
