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.

#stillshowingup

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…

Lol wow… sooo behind hahahah.

I believe this training session was fantastic for this day.

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

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

#lassosweep

Because I do remember having to switch to my weak side do to negate my bruised shin lol.

Thor ran the class!

Rolled with a bunch of guys. Juneau, Nathan, Caleb, Eric, and even a random new guy lol…

Making them shorter?
short and sweet?

4 left

Word… got to LEMMA around 5:30 pm on the Fri Feb 19th.

#Openmat

A little dehydrated from drinking coffee all day but the wrist was feeling good. lol

#ibuprofen

Ankle felt fantastic though… maybe it was just the ibuprofen hahhaahah.

5 min rounds, 1 with Kara, 2 with Philippe, and 3 non stop rounds with Jared…

Kara is new… very new, but fun to warm up with. Philippe on the other hand is a 220 lbs beast with an imposing top game, great control and a very much improving guard. Phew tough rounds. Then the roll with Jared. Only 15 years old, 190 lbs, and competes regularly compared to others. Kid kept me on my toes this night. Wow is he ever getting better… every time we roll his skill level just keeps accelerating. Just showing up, makes a difference. Had me thinking and moving throughout our whole jam session. Maybe I’m just getting old.

#Stillbehind

Yep got back from Vegas last night round 12:00 pm.

Great time, a lot of sun and wonderful shows.

Beautiful concrete jungle…  a lot of gamble and literally just spending money.

🙂

fb_img_1450839591980.jpg

lol… either-way BJJ on the 17th was another night I shouldn’t shown up. Wrist, ankle, what else.

Class was great… consisted of a warm-up with take-downs, isolated side control escapes with 5 min drilling, and then 5×5 min rounds of rolling.

I partnered with Aussey Mike for the duration of the class to work drills. Rolled with Mike, Tyson, Mitch, the Rock Climber,  and then Juneau.

Tough crowd.

Homies pushed me lol.

Sure… I was allowed to come in… lol.

In the morning anyways…

BJJ in the morning on a Sunday?

Why not?
Ain’t different then any other day, aside that you get to spend the rest of the day hanging with the other favourite people on earth…
Other then our BJJ mat rats.

You bet I came in to row, and do some conditioning stuff…  4×10 box jumps, 4×25 push-ups, 4×4 tire flips, all as fast as I could.

Tried doing the 200 m… wanted to puke. Only got 3 sets in lol… now on to box jumps and other random things. BJJ soon!

Come on. I’m bored. Video taping encourages me to perform. 🙂
At least I’m doing something… NO?

wpid-fb_img_1425488229884.jpg

Class was fun though… I actually took it easy on the homies today… been noticing guys really messing up side rolling. I see it every Sunday and during the week during our movement exercises.
#Messedup
Homies train everyday in the morning but can’t do a fundamental side roll, its like shrimping, helps with guard retention and escaping.

PRACTICE practice practice, DRILL drill drill lol

#Seriously

Told the homies that we will be reviewing it during class this day. 

I use to suck at side rolling, heck!! rolled over my head. 

Even found them a wonderful clip to help them improve while sitting at home watching TV… was hoping specific people showed up… that didn’t, that really suck at them and keep saying they can’t do it. Oh well can’t get them all.

Nice reference for building that flexibility I found for them below.

Even one for Granby Rolling… great reference below.

Either way, our morning class consisted of a standard warm-up with movement exercises, reviewed side & Granby rolling, 5×5 min rounds of rolling.
You bet… clip below.

Heck I still feel like I suck at BJJ, especially when life intervenes off the mat.

Just gotta keep showing up and plugging away!

Cause we love BJJ!!

Ossss!

Between being sick, injury, the sick baby, and work stuff… I have been keeping in lower on the attendance scale… 

fb_img_1451706976437.jpg

Clip of the training before bjj… yep got some in…

4×1 km Rows, 4×10 31in Box Jumps, 4×25 reps of push-ups, random stupidity, stretching, and mat cleanliness.

Added 2 of those damn 45 lbs cross fit plates for a box jump max lol. Repped 2 of them. Not even sure how thick they are… Will measure next time.

Clip of us training…

Warm-up with movement exercises with help from my homeboy Nathan Hatton. We then worked on open guard partner exercises, positional sweep drilling, reviewed the scissor sweep to mounted crossed collar choke, and then we rolled 5 rounds of 5 minute rounds.

Boy was it warm… lol

Got to LEMMA round 5:00 pm… holy shoot. Tonnes of guys there doing things, from lifting, privates to working on the bag… wow. The heat was hilariously hot. Oh well good for me… bad for everyone else?

Got the little homie’s to follow me around with some running around the mat, side steps, outside/insides, then switching every 2 side steps. Had them bear crawl then a bunch of lunges around the mat.

fb_img_1424066772310.jpg

Nathan and Marco came in to help out,and even Justin, which was fantastic lol… Marc had them do a few cool things as well as Nathan.

Either way its always great o help out with the kids BJJ… only wished I had more time.

Maybe one day I’ll have a club where I can have time to teach BJJ to kids.

All about the growth of BJJ!!
