Friday morning sparring got switched to today with today's sparring being one and a half weeks since we last sparred. I had taken a week off boxing in this time also as a means on not only dealing with sponsors but also a means of nursing a head injury...but let's keep that all hush-hush.
I was eager to spar today but somewhat hesitant and curious of how I'd be because I took a chunk of time off my boxing training -- a full week. A full week off of boxing, in my world, IS a big chunk of time, a very big chunk of time because not only do I box in the morning with Coach Brown but I also box in the evening with Double J at System. Sticking to just weight training was mentally very frustrating but the break proved to be quite needed and quite beneficial to my boxing as proven in the quality of my sparring today.
Rest is as important to the body as training is.
