Back at Judo after a four month break (traveling, etc). Surprisingly fun! Stretched a calf muscle from a low driving ouchigari, and am now aching the day after, but all in a good way. Also taught a green belter who’s prepping for competition the 4 Rules of Gripping.

Judo training log: I keep not coming regularly, and then using that as an excuse to default to drops, when I should be aiming for standing ippon seoi and kouchi makikomi. May be dropping by KL for a training stint again though.

Judo training log: this is day 4 of a 10 day writing and training retreat in Kuala Lumpur. (As in I spend 5 hours writing in the day, and 5 hours training in the evenings). So far I’ve worked on a new approach to newaza attacks and a series of modules on how to fight left handers.
