MMA and me; day 14

In kickboxing yesterday, I realized that if I ever want to be able to throw high kicks, I'm going to need to improve my flexibility. That being said, I'm starting to get the form for a proper mid level 10 down pretty well. I'm still having issues with the 9, but that's mostly due to it being my off leg, and again, flexibility.

We did more half guard work in jiu jitsu again, except this time we covered passing the half guard from top, instead of sweeps from the bottom. This was a lot of fun, and it was cool rolling with a new guy. I did feel bad for him when we added an arm triangle to the end of the final pass. Being a broad shouldered, thick necked individual, it's difficult for someone with slightly shorter arms to sink that choke in really deep, but he still did well.

Fun classes, and at the two week mark, I feel like things are coming along nicely.
