Today's lunch Jiu Jitsu training was at the Rodrigo Freitas BJJ gym in Hawthorne, CA. I was able to get in time to do some of the warm ups. They were mostly dynamic stretching. I did some corrective stretching while watching the moves being done for today.
The lesson for today was on setting up submissions from side control. The first lesson was setting up a fake knee on belly transition from side control to a triangle. The next move was setting up when the opponent goes for the single leg reversal and trap their far side arm to go for the kimura. This move, I was able to work on from both sides. After that, I was able to roll for 2 rounds of sparring.
Before and after training, I was stretching out at my desk, since my sciatica was acting up. I feel that my flexibility has been improving, since I have been spending more time stretching and/or using the massage stick everyday. Also, my posture is improving as well.
