Monday: no workout. Dinner out with a friend. Ate too much! But all protein: duck, lamb, fish, and pork.

BJJ, last night
Those BJJ gis are so heavy and hot! I was sweating before class even started! The instructors actually prefer rolling gi to nogi and would really like to have more gi classes. Last night they were hinting, as we warmed up, that soon we could have an all-gi beginners' class. We had 12-14 last night, I think; most of us were in gis.

Warmup was light in terms of the amount that we actually did, except that the gi made it so much harder. Then we worked a sweep from half-guard and then worked "Plan B", if you don't get in fast enough for the first sweep. Then rolling. Even with all the muscling going on, I was defending well and kept the newer wrestling guys from submitting me. Couldn't get anything on them, though.
