1/25

early:

light heavy bag routine - Paul + Superfoot routine and stretching. I did it light ( 2 hours). My high kicks are about waist high, but I'm working on flexibility.

I think my 20 years break might have done something to my flexibility or back operation or hip arthitis... or early date of birth...

Late:

BJJ class - back mount (technique, technical rolling, rolling starting from back mount)

1/26

90 min free roll, rounds between three of us.

GS, yes, there are perks to working where I work from time to time . The up side is that I've gotten a lot of reps with the spear, striking, takedowns and such. On the down side, I've also been thrown, beaten on, and knocked about when I was in the suit. The guys I teach CT with and I are all cool about rotating in when we're not actively training or serving in the suit. It's very conducive to getting more reps.
