MMA 4/9

Chest & head guards arrived today, first night of sparring in full armor. Some observations:
1: The TKD guys have a real advantage, they know much more about range & timing.
2: Keep your guard up, dumb ass.
3: As I suspected, I am too slow to initiate. I will have to be a counter-striker.
4: Getting hit in the head is relatively painless.
5: Getting hit in the guts: not so much.
6: It sucks to be the old fat guy.
