Back on the mats! 1st session done :)






Last night was my first BJJ  session for some time, I knew it would bring me considerable joy so no surprise to get that buzz on the drive home!
As I expected I was rusty and very clumsy but still managed to defend a little and work on position.  The session had heavy emphasis on grip and breaking grip so cannot feel my fingertips today!

Anyway just made up to be back training and just have to keep it up now, oh and definitely need a new bigger gi, felt like I was rolling in skinny jeans and a waistcoat!

In celebration of me stepping back into training here is a deep and spiritual video featuring quotes from top BJJ players/coaches, nice and motivational!

ADCC 2013 Highlight Vid!

I know this is quite a few months old now but was checking out BJJ/Grappling on Youtube and remembered this.  It is an amazing highlight video of the 2013 ADCC (Abu Dhabi Combat Club) tournament that took place in October 2013 in Beijing, China and featured the worlds best BJJ and grappling players!


The video was made by Stuart Cooper who makes, in my opinion, the best BJJ and grappling related videos on the internet, check out more of his on his Youtube channel:
