Not much of a Boxer

I really enjoy the days our dryland includes boxing.  Like the rest of the guys I try to push myself to hit as hard and as fast as possible.  I've exceeded my limit twice now.  It's quite obvious when I strike my boxing partners glove too hard or at an odd angle.  It causes shooting pain in my wrist which makes me stop dead in my tracks.  I didn't think it was too bad this last time, I even continued after a few seconds rest.  Yet days later my right wrist is quite sore and I have limited flexibility.  It's not affecting swimming just yet but it's certainly injured.

So for the week it's looking like a bad wrist and torn up back muscles.  Everything else is in great shape!

Nationals is about 9 days away, looking forward to the meet itself but I have very realistic goals for my 100 backstroke.  More on that later.
