Without regular access to a gym, I'm a little annoyed. I won't have the ability to get back into the gym for quite a while, so I'm going to have to make due with my weight vest, my pull-up bar, and my sled. It's just kinda a hassle and since all this stuff is at home, I'm more likely to be lazy.
On the other hand, I went out to the Mason session on Thursday. Met a new guy Gabriel, saw Hai again, got pissed off at Trey for being lazy. We did a light warm-up and the conditioning routine was pretty much ruined by Trey's laziness (in that small of a group, it matters big time). I worked with them on quick changes of direction coming out of a roll, or just rolling in general. Then we spent awhile playing around and trying new and different things. It's good to have Hai around just because he'll get me to try things I've never seen before. Too bad he has to go back to Blacksburg. If Knox shows up routinely, maybe he'll do the same thing.
Last night was my first BJJ session. I suck arse. Strength means shit when you're on the ground. At the very least, it means terribly little. I intend to get much better, though. But I see a lot of disadvantages with my body type. Short arms, short legs.. Almost no leverage at all.
