After seeing a hojo undo video, decided to do slow motion sinawali with 6 pound maces until my wrists refused to do more.

Then one step drills and flowing with traditional Bujin weapons: sticks, bigger sticks, a staff, pointed stick, a bottle, butcher knife, pocket knife, African bullwhip, a pencil, sheet metal workers punch tool, 3 pound dumbell, ect..

8 am - 9 am: Use-of-force training for the department, involving Taser and sim guns. We did hour blocks, and I ran through 3 or 4 scenarios. Weapons transitons were involved, which is quite tricky when the blood gets up. Sadly, I got to fire no sim rounds.
