Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu

Tonight I finished my 2nd class with the Gun Fight Club. Tony Bonello is a black belt instructer in Ralph Gracie Jiu-Jitsu. He's a very nice guy (Despite looking like a convicted murderer) and his teaching style is excellent.

My first thing that I've come to realize is that I'm extremely out of shape! I get winded during the warm-up. I'm not overly obese however I'm on the fatter side of things (5'9 184ish).

I'm still decided what to do with this blog but for now, I'll blog about my BJJ progress and pray that I don't get injured. So far, my shoulder is sore. After the 1st class, everything was sore. I think I will get better, have more stamina, and look better in the coming months.

Does anyone read this? haha

  1. I always like to go with the Roy Dean philosophy: it isn't about a bigger gas tank, but better fuel economy. In other words, learning how to relax, conserve your energy and accomplish technique through good timing is more important than awesome stamina (though that obviously helps).
