MMA and me; day 12

Yesterday was a rough day of training, but it was all my fault. Going to the Puyallup Fair for six hours and eating a bunch of garbage, does not prepare your body properly for working out. I did go though, and despite not feeling 100%, made it through both classes. Kick boxing was more body kicks, and all we did was work on 9s and 10s. Hopefully tomorrow we'll add punches to those combinations, but I think that until I learn to throw the kicks properly, I'll stick with those.

Grappling was mostly new stuff. Working in a leg lace from bottom half guard, and then three different sweeps from there.Getting the legs wrapped around your opponent will not always be easy, but once you do, there are a ton of options to gain the upper hand. I really liked these sweeps, and if my brother and I hadn't been in such crappy condition, we probably would have done some free grappling after class. As it is, I'll get some in today.
