Competition weekend

This past Saturday was the Scandinavian BJJ Open here in Stockholm. I did not compete, too soon, but I went to watch some of my team compete. They did good with a decent number of gold medals (and some silver/bronze too). It was cool to see and it just makes me wanna work harder so I can do good in competitions.

Sunday I took a break. Monday I lifted at the gym. My gym time has been kinda boring really. I mean I get good workouts but nothing to speak of. Since I only hit the weights 2x a week right now, I usually do about 45 mins of a full body workout with heavy weights, usually super setting or drop setting. My gym has 3 owners and one of them fights MMA here in Sweden. I don't talk to him much; he's not there too often and when he is, he is personal training. I usually talk to his brother, who is also part owner, and Saturdays we are going to try to get the three of us together and do some sparring. Will be good practice to go against someone who is actively taking part in real fights.

Operation: 6 is coming along, but I must admit, I havn't been doing the full 500 everyday, mostly due to time constraints. It really depends on what me and Ollie do during the day. And I havn't been doing any after Kim gets off work, so maybe I need to start so I can get my full 500 reps in. Also, I've decided to do only one type of ab exercise per day instead of doing combinations. It was too easy to just switch exercises when I got tired.

Tuesday (yesterday), I went to Bjj but Kenta wasn't feelling too good, so he ended up not staying. Not a problem really, we had a purple belt there who ended up leading. Well, there were 7 of us, so we decided to do free sparring, 5 min rounds, different person sits out each match and we round robin so we fight everyone. Free sparring is definitly a good workout with little rest. Of course the purple belt had no problems with us..lol. But it was still good.

I'll probably take today off (Im pretty sore) and hit Bjj again tomorrow.
