MEDIC!!!! I can't feel my chest Sarge....I'm cold...

Is it bad that 12 hours after your chest workout it feels like someone took an ice pick to it? I had a great workout this morning, using principles stolen from my wife's trainer (don't tell her honey!) and I feel it afterwards. I did not crap out my colon during the workout though...which I was thankful for :)

On the flip side Jits was awesome tonight! Coach had use work on a double hooks in butterfly sweep. An oldie, but a goody! I love the basic and this is a staple everyone should have in their arsenal. We worked both the basic harness grip (one over, one under) to trap and arm and then use timing and momentum to roll back, kick the leg and sweep them into number two hold down. The key to this one tonight was something I hadn't seen before though. You tuck the leg down that is on the same side as the over arm. This sets up a nice variation that we worked on as "option 2". Option 2 happens when your opponent posts out and you can't get them over. You're basically going to ride the wave back so the sit on their knees and then you do a knee up position smash pass to number two hold down. Short, sweet and to the point. Love it!

Rolling went well tonight. I started with Billy, always a good roll. Next I got Rennato, but his nose started bleeding (NO, I did not punch him!) about three minutes in so we had to stop, clean him up and get him some ice. I got another fairly young white belt after that and we worked slow for him. I used each roll to work my "month of the mount" them and secure the position and land my one of my "3 set" combos from their. Lastly I rolled with Coach. As always he makes you feel great...right up until I think he gets tired of letting me flail around...then, BAMB. So sorry Mike but you're going to tap on this arm bar :) I love working back control with him because he's very patient and will let you get just far enough that you think you have a chance and then expose every weakness in your position. Lessons I shant forget for next time :)

All in all it was a good day. I blew past 170 grams of protein, had a great morning workout and an awesome jiu jistu training session. I just truly fear not being able to push myself out of bed tomorrow morning...dun dun duuuuuuuuuuuuuun!
