DarthPenguin Posted January 8 Author Share Posted January 8 As an update i have had covid since just before new years (annoyingly) so not been able to train properly out of stubbornness though i have still been trying to use my new ski erg machine once a day. Started with 600m on the 1st and adding 50m a day. Have managed it every day so far.Thought it would be good to get it into my daily routine as can always do with more conditioning work. Am trying to build it up to 2k to start and then the plan will be to do that a few times a week and shorter distances on other days. Will then gradually work on increasing distances further.Am liking the machine so far though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bushido_man96 Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 Hope you get to feeling better soon, DP.That ski erg machine sounds kind of interesting. It definitely helps to do conditioning on something you enjoy, and it sounds like you enjoy it. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty much over it now though been left with a bit of a chest infection.Yeah i am quite liking the ski erg machine. It is one of the few conditioning devices i could find that had a heavy upper body emphasis. I thought that working on some upper body endurance would help a lot, plus it does still work the aerobic system. I walk a lot already so it made sense to me. Came down to a choice between this and an assault bike but pleased with the choice i made so far! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarthPenguin Posted January 15 Author Share Posted January 15 Saturday 13 JanuaryBJJ SessionSession was mainly working on avoiding being flattened out in a knee shield half guard and then escaping out onto knees in dogfight position. Working a lot on using a frame with the same side arm as the knee shield into opponents throat area to create space. Worked on that and then drilled it with resistance a lot then several round of sparring.Managed to pull off several cross collar chokes which was good as i am trying to really work on using them from my back. Also managed one bow and arrow choke which i was pleased with as it used to be one of my favourites.main focuses going forwards will be to continue to work on active gripping and on having a clear system of progression from one technique to the next depending on opponents responses (so less 'seeing what is available') Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's really the next level stuff. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then need to start getting that smoother and working on the same from other positions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
