Rounds: 3

Location: Backyard

3 rounds of jump rope to warm up. Followed by 3 rounds of shadowboxing. Focused on soviet style "bouncing" in and out of range and maintaining distance with my lead hand. Feels like jousting. I really find the lead hook to be a potent tool when bouncing out of range of an attacking opponent.

The go to soviet style jab-cross draws an opponent to drive forward and attack while I bounce out and fire a looping hook. I am focusing on using this style to establish tempo and dominance in early rounds to keep my opponent guessing. I can easily transition and revert to the philly shell and American style close range hooks and combat style. Think Mayweather and Tyson combined.

My finger is healing and I'll plan to put on gloves before the week is over.
