Check out Jeff Martone's "The Power Behind the Punch" on the tacticalathlete site. I think Jeff is incorporating KBs into the training for boxers. It might be a nice complement or foundation for your boxing.

Making more good progress on the weight. That's always worthy of a smiley! Walking the pups is fun and you get some cardio workout with a purpose.

Nice work! Being 36 pounds less must actually feel a lot different.
Your workouts show some serious dedication.

December 15--been blessed with another 55 degree day, took an hour lunch and went to the park (measured the distance for what 1 lap would be at the park which loops around the CT river.
One of my co-workers brought his 35lb dumbbell and joined me but halfway through he puked!) and he ended up walking the laps. I had warned him not to eat before, but he didn't listen..
HOC ( ran all laps)
1 lap
clean and press w/26lber 1x10
1 lap
sling shot w/26lber 1x20
1 lap
SOS swing, snatch, switch arms at kb point of weightlessness, repeat with other arm w/26lber 1x5 lr
1 lap
front squat racked 1x5lr
1 lap
hindu squats 1x25
2 rounds, took 30 minutes. 10 minutes spent demoed snatch, swing, clean and press, and TGU w/26lber (can get to knees on left, not quite feet though--still needs some work on that, right gets to feet once)

Excellent workout! Great to see you getting the co-workers involved too. Sounds like the co-worker had a good experience with the KB vs DB.
You're having some nice weather. It was 8 degrees this morning and warmed up to 26 this afternoon. Back down to 16 right now...on the way to an expected 3 tomorrow morning. The forecast calls for -2 on Monday night. Much too cold for snow. Just clear, cold nights.
