Tonight was judo Night.

No Morning training today.

I went to a MS event for SQL 2005.




Judo Night



The knee is still sore but I went to Judo Class anyways. We warmed up after that did moving Uchikomi's. We did Uchikomi's across the mat then threw you partner at the end.

Next we newaza that was a lot of fun. I started on all fours, the turtle position, and let my partner attack my back. I was working on my turtle defense. It's easier to work on a position in judo then BJJ. We went three rounds the last round I was pinned by a 7 year old girl! :0 I was helping her with her side control.

Then Randori. I passed this part of train to let me knee rest.


Next Training day will be Saturday.

BJJ Training

I went to BJJ class tonight even though the knee is still sore. We drilled for about 45 minutes. Class start off with four different throws. Next we mover to pull guard then set up the x-guard to sweep. Open mat was after drills. With the knee sore I went with one of the lower belts. He started off strong but he gassed about a few minutes in. After 5 minutes it was time to rest. I rested five minutes and rolled again for another 5 minutes and called it a night. More BJJ Saturday morning.
