Jits 11/27

worked on arm locks and guard passes in warm up.
Did some position training and then moved on to a 30 minute straight roll. Oh my goodness, that might have been one of the hardest workouts of my life. I felt really really good today. No pain. Just lots of sweat and lots of movement. Nathan said i improved 20% since last time. He reminded me to be playful. As an adult, we're aware when we don't know what we're doing and we become hesitant to try things. As a kid, if we're thrown into something, we don't know that we don't know anything and we just have fun trying. i'm trying to get into that space and i think it paid off. I had a great workout and i think i made a lot of improvements in my form. Tomorrow, i'm taking the day off from Jits but will train in the gym. Then we'll be back at it on Sunday. i think an occasional day off is good for the muscles, the joints, but also lets a lot of the information settle in too. Similar to how Dr. Gary got his first muscle up just by thinking about it for 24 hours, i've improved moves just by thinking about them a lot. ok, i'm babbling so its time to sign off.
