August 12th

Today I woke up at 8:25 this morning.  I went to eat breakfast and met Joe in the cafe.  We headed over to the weight room around 9 to get in a lift.  We had to wait for a while before we could get on a squat rack.  The tae kwon do and Greco roman resident were in there lifting so we had to wait for a while.  We did a heavy leg workout and then we went to practice.  This morning Lincoln put us through a warm up and some basic technique drills.  We did that for about 20-30 minutes.  After that Zeke Jones put us through some drills on defense from the bottom.  We did that for about 20 minutes and then we were on our own to do anything extra conditioning and warm down.

I was pretty tired after the morning workout.  My leg were dead.  I went to the cafe and ate.  We played a few games of dominoes and then I came back to my room and relaxed.

The afternoon workout good.  Kevin warmed us up and put us through some drills for about 20 minutes.  He gave us a few minutes to get ready for the live wrestling.  The live was three 6 minutes matches.  I wrestled Joe the first match, Chad Lamer the second, and the third match I went with Kevin Herron, a heavyweight from missouri.  I did not feel very good during the matches but the coaches said I looked good, so thats good to know that I still wrestle well even when I do not feel the best.  When we were done Tom put us through a warm down.  After that we were on our own to cool down and do any extra stuff.

I took some time to stretch and cool down then showered  and came back to my room.  I had a USA Wrestling executive committee conference call.  After the call I went to the cafe to eat.  We played a game of dominoes and then I came back to my room.  I played some video games and watched some tv.
