So I had the first kickboxing class I knew I would suck at yesterday. High kicks. I am not bendy enough in the groin or hips to throw kicks higher than waist, or maybe ribcage. Nevertheless, I soldiered through, and at least I didn't fall. We then slapped on the shin guards, and did some very light kick and checking drills. My legs are starting to get tougher, but we were going pretty light, and I know most of these guys are much better than the light drilling we did. Still, progress is progress.
Jiu jitsu was just a full class of grappling. Me and the guy I rolled with went for nearly 15 minutes, but I couldn't tap him, and he got me twice. The second time he got a choke in pretty tight, and smashed my Adam's apple, and now I got a bit of a sore throat. It kinda sucks, but it's the kind of mistake I wont make again. I did manage to tap a different guy out with a triangle choke, and escaped the ankle lock he tapped me out with a few weeks ago. Now my throat hurts, but I still have a decent idea of what I need to improve on in the grappling aspect.
