Mar 23/16 Nashville BJJ

Had the opportunity to visit Nashville from March 21st to the 24th…

Homies were very welcoming. I got smashed by a Pans Purple belt medalist, and a massive brown belt who was as big as our lovely Gare Bear…. wow.

Great stuff

Busy freaking weekend this was lol…

Yes lol… got me some rowing in… and I’m slowly creeping up.

Here’s me banging myself on the boxes in slow motion lol.

Clip of the class jamming below… Warm-up with movement exercises, drilling sweeps with chaining a submission, reviewed the wing to bow choke, then 5 min rounds of rolling.

Great class, smaller group of guys… oh well. We all worked hard.

Start these things, then get distracted by the dog, wife or monkey lol… hilarious that I actually forgot to start this one.

Either way, hasn’t been doing me very good. Still behind, but hey I’ll plug away. Thank god for the clips I take during the class or open mats, good documentation of what I did lol.

Mar 2/16 Wed Night BJJ

Hardly catching up lol, especially while chasing around a little monkey… yeah the kid is fast. lol

Got to LEMMA around 5:30 pm this day…
G was teething again so he needed some extra time eating.

😦

Poor guy… wish I could absorb all his pain. Apparently the pain babies endure during teething could induce a grown adult into a mental state of insanity and be possibly emitted to a psychiatric institution. Who knows.

#pain

Guess that’s why we all forget when we grow up…

Tylenol, food, formula, and sleep. He was shivering…

Today Thor had us rep out the side control escape, into a re-guard, a rolling sweep, when they set up a low x-pass, then negating the pass when your opponent shifts their weight backwards realising they are going to get swept. I believe I partnered with Aussie Mike or Nathan for this. Rolled with Nathan, Mike, Thor, Jason & possibly a few others… probably 5 min rounds.

Honestly, I forget, its been a while, who knows lol.

I start this, then I get distracted…

Soooo what?

Got to LEMMA around 8:30 am… got the following in prior to the homies showing up.
4x200m/2x1000m rowing, 4×10 box jumps, 4×25 push-ups, 8×4 tire flips, 40 sec head stands, sweeping/mopping, & some stretching… banged my shins on the box lol

Here it is slowed down lol… yep. Shin is all scraped up lol.

Yes that sucked. I walked it off!! lol

Either way, we had a standard warm-up, some positional sweep drilling, reviewed taking the back from mount from the hook sweep, 5×5 min rounds of rolling, and then 10 mins of first to points. The guys and gals did well, some were a little competitive but eh… a little competition never hurt anyone.

Clip of our grinding morning below.

Like whoa… got a cold. I really shouldn’t have went to BJJ this day.

However, had to… going to Vegas early Friday morning for our delayed honeymoon lol. Miss it cause we found out we were having G a few days after the festivities lol. Don’t plan on training this visit… time with the wife is more important for this trip.

Won’t be back till late Monday night. Grandma and Grandpa are in town watching G and the munchkin dog.

🙂

Whew though… still had the boogers lol.
I apologise for anyone that got sick cause of me…

Hopefully I didn’t give anyone a cold… selfish me.

Aussey Mikey ran the warm-up….

Thor made us rep a double leg variation, then we drilled a hip bump sweeps, then an omaplata switch from the hip bump sweep.

Very nice!

Felt like I did it about a few hundred times.

#GIWASSOAKED
Then we rolled… 5 min rounds. Thor, Eric, then with Jared. Fun fun!

Again, I apologise for anyone that got sick cause of me…

However I was super sore with my wrist and shin lol.

From what I remembered we may have worked on my favorite sweep
