[gallery link="file"] Got up at around 2.00 PM, which is 5.00 PM your time and after a quick meditation session, headed over to the mall for a breakfast of Lebanese food and a stiff Starbucks coffee. Mulled around the mall for some personal business and than off to hold pads for Mehdi. Got to Kb-1 where classes were starting and after hugs and formalities were complete with my coach, it was time for war. First I needed to score a set of CoreShorts from Mehdi before we started the evenings festivities. I was introduced to these shorts, maybe about a month ago. These shorts are awesome if you have hip / pelvic area complications. Since I've started to develop some hip problems and I know that I was in for a rough 2 weeks, I had to invest in a pair. I think we will get some for our own proshop (That's a HINT Hector, if you're reading this). Tonight Mehdi was on the ball. First he put on a 15 lb weighted vest. I held pads for him, with an emphasis on boxing and elbow techniques. Mehdi did 12 three minute rounds, with a 1 minute break! The vest was dumped at round 7. Man he's in great shape! I was beginning to get a sweat on. I am happy to say that my shoulder held up (boy I'm falling apart :)) Thanks Vineet for the therapy! I left Mehdi and the boys to play video games; some FIFA 2010 series, where he was slaughtering his students and went for some Persian food to finish my evening. I think I will finish my evening with some drawing and reading. Have a great night Kombat boys and girls :) Jd
