MMA Sparring went pretty good. After the 3rd round my left knee began to bug me. I didnt hurt it during the round but if felt funny when i got up. I sometimes have that after I lift heavy near 1 RM my body is in a recovery state for a few days after so it would have been wiser to wait until the weekend. Also i have been doing alot of power cleans lately and i think my technique has been lacking, in where my feet went out in order to get up the weight instead of using good technique which can aggravate the inside of the knee which i think it did.  I don't think it was that bad though, so Im gonna go to the physical therapists tomorrow. So for now im just icing and may take a few days off to let my leg rest.

Also on another note, i think maybe changing up my training regimen maybe wise. The training itself is already physically intensive on the body so i need to build off that. Just some food for thought. But ill be brainstorming about it the next few days.

Tomorrow is gonna be a hard day. Its MMA sparring day. What we do is put on our MMA gloves and shin pads then spar 5 minutes for 5 to 6 rounds with 1 minute rest in between. The sparring is grappling based but you go as hard as your partner, so if your partner feel like going hard then your gonna have a tough round. It pretty much simulates a long hard fight. Normal fights are 3 x 5 minutes but Title fights are 5 x 5 minutes. So i think its always good to be in championships shape.
