Didn’t think many would show… beautiful day, however I was in around 9:30 am.
Hung over lol… too much scotch last night but hey… need to get conditioning in…
Let just say my last set was horrible… 3rd set almost 2 mins lol woooo… getting better will never be easy.
I was right not many people in… only Nathan and Brittany showed up…
Kinda glad…
Got Nathan to run the show. He ran through a short warm-up, then reviewed a take down from a duck under, to a brabo choke and then a arm triangle choke.
Lucky Brittany essentially got a private lol.
We had her ask questions with what she had problems and issues with.
Tried to answer them as best as we could.
Then we had a few small 5 mins rounds on her with me coaching her while she rolled with Nathan…
Apparently she loved that… hah!!
After BJJ I made sure to get my intake of meatballs in from Italian Fest!!

Got to LEMMA around 1:45 pm… Steve was in, Winston popped in and then Kyle the blue belt from Halifax.
Steve reviewed a few half guard set sweeps with the hook of doom, and a low x-guard or single leg x-guard sweep from half guard. I repped them out with Steve, while Winston worked with Kyle… good times. With Steve out we did a shark tank style rolling session. 5 min rounds, with only staying in for two rounds each. I sat out for the first round.
Rolling: (5 min rounds, 1 min break)
Boy did I ever wish I warmed up lol… but the first roll with Kyle, oh boy! warmed me up lol, then Winston right after Hah…
Winston buddy…
Kyle was rolling really smooth. Which was great… tough roll.
A welcomed addition to our training.
Will be nice to have more experienced competition blue belts around, especially with long legs and arms lol… hopefully he continues to train with us.
Felt bad for Winston… he wasn’t tapping. Really fighting the submissions. He got put to sleep… Snoring… sleep.
Thank god I noticed… cause Kyle didn’t… if no one was there to notice, Winston would have issues.
Got to tap homie!
Leave the ego at the door… it will slow down your learning process…
It isn’t a battle to the death
BJJ 4 Life homie!
Wow, I was not motivated to go to the gym tonight…
Chugged some coffee and went anyways.
Especially, hanging out with my 7 month old and my 16 lbs Chiweenie all day lol…
Yes, things can get pretty cumbersome.
Hit the Complex yesterday morning again… yay on my way back down to 155 lbs lol…. walking around 165 to 170 lbs weird… hahahah
Always someone to help motivate you lol…
Got this in the mail today… unfortunately the baby kept me too busy to even skim through it. Oh reading material on a boring day Ha!!
Got in around… 5:15 pm ishy…
Rupert, Nathan, Morgan, Colin, Jesse, Winston, a newb blue belt from Halifax, Justin, and then Matt Veal showing up a little later.
Rolling: (10 min, 1 min breaks)
1. Rupert
2. Rupert
3. Jesse
4. Justin
Got Rupert to warm me up…
Yes my finger was still mangled…
Taped the shit out of it lol. Boy did he grind on me lol…
All I could think about was man… I could have sworn it was for me to warm up… lol… so I literally had to up my pace stay safe.
Oh well lol… he kept trying to do an over under pass inside my guard, which I thought was weird, because it opened up an opportunity for me to triangle him. Which rarely happens for me.
Yes almost triangled someone wooo…
Especially with my 26 inch inseam hah!!
FUN TIMES LOL
Later myself and Morgan asked him why he kept doing that… turns out he watched it on YouTube… a drill in which he tried in live rolling. Myself and Morgan tried to correct his pass… reviewing approach and when to use this pass. Unfortunately, however in turn fortunate. He learned a few ways, corrective was to use this pass while rolling with me. I’m hoping he remembers to send me the link to the video he watched this drill from… that way I can correct his initial intent. Not saying I an expert but hey. Any help, is better then no help…
Take it from me… I was a 4 year white belt lol…
Rolling with Jesse and Justin was fun as usual heck it was all fun! great day…
I’m glad I went in…
