BJJ - 1 Hour of nogi, followed by 1 hour of gi.
In nogi, we drilled an outside leg drag guard pass, then I sparred 3 x 5 minute rounds. Got to work with a couple of guys who are larger/stronger than me, but less experienced. First big guy was really strong & seemed to have some wrestling experience, he surprised me with a guillotine attempt from bottom half guard, but I worked my way clear to side control. He tried to continue squeezing the choke from side control, but I finally got it off & then mounted.. The next guy was really big, probably around 300 pounds - he kept trying to use the can-opener lol. Good Times
Gi training was awesome - got a partner & did 3 minutes closed guard, bottom & top, then 3 minutes open guard, bottom & top, then did several 5 minute sparring rounds with different partners. I got to roll with Gordo today (the inventor of the half guard). Pretty awesome. His Jiu-jitsu is smooth...no wasted energy, uses almost no strength.
