So, we actually had this past week off. After going at it hard all summer, I enjoyed the time to be able to stay home and work in my cage and actually get to hang out in the pool a lot. Those are things that you just don’t get to do a lot in the summer with our tournament schedule.

I have really used this week to get back in the cage every day and work on the basics, doing the things I’ve always done. It’s also been nice to be able to make the early morning workouts at the gym. I attended an SEC camp last week with a couple of my teammates and that was super fun as always.

We have this next week off, too, so my routine will really be kept the same. We leave this Saturday for The Alliance in California. I’m so excited for that and to be with my girls again!! I know I’ve said this before, but it’s just crazy that this is our last tournament of the season! It really just goes by so fast. I hope everyone has had a great summer!
