CJJ tonight was good. Love the flowing nature of jiu jitsu. Did some drills then a couple of 10 minute in the whole rounds. Fairly short workout as I got in a little late, but did some skipping (well my version of it lol) before and after class. Also focused tonight on upping the intensity of my grappling.

Tonight got into the club and attended Chris Bradford's Top Tier Muay Thai class. Great to work out with a new bunch of guys and push things a bit. With a strong background in shootfighting I was amazed at the difference required in the natural movement of the sport. Moving and keeping loose, driving for power and working on the fitness level. I had a great time and will head back in Thursday for more.
I also wanted to let people know that after hearing about the fundraiser in October Chris immediately offered to sponsor me for the event. What a great guy. Do yourself a favor folks and come in and check out Cherubin Jiu Jitsu and Top Tier Muay Thai - they are unparalleled as far as I am concerned in state of Victoria.

So Monday night kicked of with a hard core training session at Cherubin Jiu Jitsu. Partnered up and worked with Michael, Anthony, & Gebsy. Working for a solid 48 minutes (3 minute rounds positional in the hole training - guard, hooks in back control, side control escapes, and escape the mount) with Dan Cherubin there pushing and encouraging us the whole time. It was tough but felt great to get through it.
After class I sat on the side of the mat watching Dan have a roll with Gebsy and then discuss some finer points for him to work on... It then dawned on me the enormity of what I am undertaking 100 3 minute rounds. It really is time for me to switch on and get into it. I have some great support coming together but ultimately it is up to me to push through, work hard and put myself in the best possible position for success.
