Using the Gymboss Timer, myself and Bubby did 12×2 minute rounds of jump rope with 30 seconds in between. In between rounds of jump rope we did ab work, sit-ups, leg raises, rusties, twists, plank and bicycles. We followed this with 12×2 minute rounds of focus pad work alternating between gloves and pads. We then touch sparred for 4×2 minute rounds.
