Thanks to Professor Andrew Viado and my training partner Otty for their help tonight.
Tonight, I was training at the Gracie Barra West Covina gym. I took the advance BJJ class. We got to work on the De La Riva sweeps and Single Leg Takedowns. After that, I got to roll for three rounds, working on top game pressure and side control escapes.

I got to drill on the Americana submission from Judo Side Control. Also, we did a live drill from open guard for 7 minutes, After that, I got to roll for one 5 minute round. These past two days, I had to miss the gym due to work and that I was coughing a lot. I didn't want to come to the gym and start infecting people. I feel better now and had to put in the work. I took both the Beginner BJJ class and Advance BJJ class.
Since I was late to the beginner class, I missed the warm ups and the drills. I started with the live drills from full guard and then worked two rounds after that. For the advance class, I did warm ups, which consisted of basic stand up movements and tumbling. We drilled on chokes from the opponent's turtle position. The chokes were a lapel choke, and 2 types of bow and arrow chokes. After that, I got to roll for 2 more rounds. My movement was slow, but I got to move around a lot and get the work in. As far as prepping for the tournament, I feel okay about it. I have a lot of experience and it's just for fun. Nothing too serious here for me. I enjoy collecting medals, but I'm looking for a challenge. I'm hoping to get pushed. I want to make sure that my technique and movements are getting better and there's no better way to test them out than in competition. Thanks to Professor Andrew and my training partners for helping me out tonight. Tonight, I was training at the UFC Gym in Rosemead. I took both the BJJ and NoGi classes. For the BJJ class, we drilled on the double under pass to side control, full guard recovery from side control, knee on belly to mount to dismount to side control, single leg takedowns, double leg takedowns, and the paper cutter choke from side control. After that, I got to roll for about 5 - 6 rounds. Then, I got to do some corrective and dynamic stretching before the NoGi class.
For the NoGi class, I did the warm ups, which consisted of basic BJJ movements and stretching. Then, we did a single leg takedowns for stand up drills. Next, we drilled on setting up and finishing the arm bar from S mount, worked on a counter to that finish, and worked on another counter to that counter. Finally, I got to roll for several rounds. Thanks to coach Bender, Liron, and the rest of the crew for their help tonight. I got a lot of work in and I got stay healthy at the same time. Sweet. Today, I was at the UFC Gym in Rosemead. I was working on strength and conditioning today. Mostly, this was a workout that worked on my core and explosive power.
