Went to BJJ at Martial Arts Planet tonight as usual.  Big surprise.  My hand was fine until I caught it in Aidan’s Gi.  Fortunately the pain died away fast.  We worked on back escapes again.  All 20 of us.  Big class!  Excellent.

I rolled with Sheldon.  Tried to protect the hand BUT I REALLY WANT TO TRAIN.  He flows from position to position.  Arm barred me.  The good news is that I got to my knees a few times, got a couple of sweeps and escaped quarter bottom.  Stayed tighter inside, and am feeling better about the flow.  Make no mistake Sheldon owned me but I had some minor improvements that are encouraging.

Tomorrow is a vacation day.  I’ll use it to get caught up on housework and maybe do a strength workout.
