Jiu Jitsu Training 8/16/18
Yesterday, I was training at the Rodrigo Freitas BJJ gym in Hawthorne, CA. We worked on submissions from the back. The first submission was the bow and arrow and the other was an arm bar from a failed bow and arrow attempt. I got to work on both submissions from both sides, so I can feel comfortable going on either way. Then, I got to roll for 4 rounds on live drills from both attacking and defending from the back. I was able to defend and get a couple of submissions, but none were from the move of the day.
Powerlifting Training 8/17/18 - Squat Day
Today's training was great. I felt great, so I decided to go heavy and since I had time, I took advantage of the rest periods. Technique off the hole on the squats was explosive. I think the jump squats and planks are paying off. I got a lot of volume in and I got to work on my weaknesses today.
