    Panther Grappling

    Went over basics again:

    Standing up to base

    basic scissors sweep

    If uke comes to one knee while doing the scissors sweep, put your foot under the knee to lift him up.

    If you can't get it, you can push your foot directly into the knee

    Pin escapes

    I had to leave early and didn't get to roll.

    1/19

    Ab stuff and stretching.


    I don't want to beat a dead horse, but I really want to be able to train martial arts more than once a week. I don't know what life will be like this semester, so I don't know what I will be able to do. I want to continue to improve martial arts skills, which I don't feel is happening training one time a week. I'm not as young as I once was, so I should be shifting to being a more technical martial artist. I want to do this in both Judo and BJJ.


    Oh, and I feel in the gym I can get back to the intensity it was at before the break. I'm going to add a max effort day this week.

    Diet notes: I've been eating a little more poorly lately. Last week this was my focus in the grocery store, and it will continue to be my focus. I want most of the carbs I eat to be low gi carbs (whole wheat, etc), I want to eat more veggies and fruits, and I want to consume less refined sugar. Most of the refined sugar I get is in the coffee I drink, so I'm going to drink more tea (although I love coffee more) and drink lattes and such w/ out sugar.

    Got out to the South Hills Judo Club for the first time in a long time, I really missed the club and everyone there!

    Warm up

    Moving kazushi

    moving uchi komi for koshi guruma

    throws for koshi guruma

    Combination: Koshi Guruma , uke steps out and around, so we follow up with Uchi Mata

    I had a difficult time with the transition to uchi mata. (As always) I need to remember to keep my kazushi on the sleeve hand UP, and I also think my angle was a little weird.


    Did a few rounds of kumikata (gripfighting). I think I did alright.

    Randori:

    vs. Paul, got thrown a couple times, he told me I did really well

    vs. Jeff, no throws either way

    vs. Rich, got a kouchi gari

    I'm thinking I can get to at least 2 practice sessions a week, at least I hope.




    edit: I did manage to stay focused on judo throughout the class and didn't get sidetracked by conversation about other things. It is my goal to try to be as focused on martial arts as I can while training, and not get carried away by chatter. I just thought I'd mention this to track the progress.

    That's always super important.
    I find my judo class is hard to get sidetracked as we are rolling or randori pretty much the whole time. During technique it helps if they people you train with are focused and into it like you.
    Of course last night things got disrupted by several guys talking about BJ Penn licking blood off his gloves Saturday night!

    Looking good
    Bout to start my own new blog monday after a pretty long layoff.
    Keep up the hard work!!!
    What would happen if a year-old baby fell from a fourth-floor window onto the head of a burly truck driver, standing on the sidewalk?
    It's practically certain that the truckman would be knocked unconscious. He might die of brain concussion or a broken neck.
    Even an innocent little baby can become a dangerous missile WHEN ITS BODY-WEIGHT IS SET INTO FAST MOTION.

    Thanks, but honestly I don't feel my workouts have been as good as they were towards the end of last semester. Still trying to work a schedule that will work.


    I'm thinking (tentative)


    Mon --- weights AND/OR south hills judo

    Tue --- weights

    wed --- no time for anything

    Thur --- Pitt grappling AND weights after

    Fri --- Pitt grappling (gi night)

    Sat --- weights

    Sun --- no time for anything


    I'm not sure if this schedule is realistic for when my school work load increases, but for these first few weeks perhaps......

    2/4

    South Hills Judo


    Moving uchi komi for uchi mata, ouchi gari, koshi guruma

    combination:

    Ouchi gari to osoto gari
    Uke steps out of the ouchi, change direction into the osoto

    Worked on the stepping for the ouchi, taking the first step low, and then bringing the back foot up forcefully.

    Important points for ouchigari: Kazushi uke down, not away. Get low. Head on the inside. Reapingt motion, not hooking (I have the hook habit because I've gotten it to work). Step in enough to have room to drive.


    Randori

    Jeff, threw me twice with great throws, I threw him once, kind of, with an ouchi gari

    Julian, got me with a couple nice throws, I got him with one, I think he let me get it. I reversed one of his throws also

    Phil, threw me all over the place
