Jiu-Jitsu Training Journal - 08/09/19

Yesterday was a Boxing and No-Gi training day.

We start with five 3 minute rounds of Boxing. I was fighting a southpaw and in round three I took a hard left to my left eye. This is the eye I had surgery on a while back and it hurt a lot (and still does). We picked up the pace in the last two rounds.

We then went to No-Gi and my training partner hurt his rib two weeks ago and though he said he was OK he didn't have the same flow and ended up getting submitted a number of times.

The bad part was at the end I was advancing off a double leg and when I log rolled to get past his hands he popped his rib again and he was in a lot of pain.

That was the end of our training session and he will be out for another few weeks.
