School of Hard Knocks

Class started innocently enough last night…

And then we broke into 3 different weight groups and started doing live take downs. 2 minute rounds, everyone does two back to back. I was up against Shane and Tall Josh. I didn’t have any success on getting a take down, but I did manage to land either in guard, or in a scramble-able position after getting taken down each time.

And then right into sparring. Five 4 minute rounds, then a 2 minute break, and then five more rounds. Tough tough training too. By the end, everyone had had plenty. And with the weather warming up, we were soaked as well as spent.
