Taps: 11. Total: 4402.
Roll call: From 4, 5 White Belts on Tues AM to 0 this morning. What happened to all the White Belts. Chris was not suited up but there still were 4 other BB on the mat: Vince, Mike, Mord
And no techniques - straight rolling in the first hour to all Positional Training in the second, with free rolls at the end.
I might have overdone it a bit today: I did a 5 minute Yoga and 100 KB Swings before i came to class. Nothing in my stomach but a cup of Bulletproof Coffee.
So by the time i had freakin Purp Morgan on top of me, who used to be a bodybuilder and now a Purple Belt, on top of me in Kesa, i was dying. I would have puked a few times if there were anything in my stomach. Also, my right thigh was cramping up.
He's got a smashing Side and wicked Kob and Kesa, too. And i tried a few things to escape and he kept countering and I finally TAPPED to the Pressure and one second later, the freakin bell went off.
I realize now I needed to get my Elbow back. He was pulling up on it and nullifying all my ESC attempts. And one ESC i didn't attempt - pushing off his chest/collar grip while i scrimp away.
My BJJ game, i realize is similar to my Chess game and the reason people, especially lower belts, like to roll with me is because i don't go too hard and they feel like they have a chance against me. Same thing in Chess.
BB Vince showing misc Blue Girl ... Flower Sweep from Guard, and if they lift that leg up, Underhook it and continue on with the Sweep.
Retirement Vision -- i just saw what i want to do when i retire in a few years: Train Full time. Travel and Train. i thought about teaching or maybe opening a school, but that's too much. I'd rather just train every day or every other day.
