Competition Class tonight!!

Well, could only make it to competition class tonight, was better than nothing. I forgot my no-gi shirt and had to borrow one. So I'm thinking a large would fit....I put it on...it is SUPER tight, but hopefully no one really notices....Mr. Alvarez noticed, and said "Showing off the muscles today eh?" It was really funny, I was embarrassed a little. Well in class today we drilled positions. I worked alot of half guard today, top/bottom. My game is really progressing. I rolled with a purple belt, Angel...he is amazing and is a big fan of the hook flips. I myself happen to have picked up on these, and LOVE them. I've started working them into all aspects of my game. Got passed a few times, passed a few times, ect. Was a good roll, I was nice and fresh....he wasnt :D. I'll take that advantage. Also got a really good roll in with Mr. Alvarez, got a couple good sweeps...but my Lord...he rolls at such a crazy pace, I have no idea how he keeps it. I keep up with him for awhile, but after 6 min or so I am just panting....he makes you work at his pace or get submitted. Shortly after he got to side mount, the sub was sunk. North South choke , and we were done!! On the way home I realized just how dehydrated I was, stopped and got some ghetto version of Gatorade because it was like 60 cent cheaper.... Ah well guys, full class tomorrow and competition class. My arm hurts and I didnt even get put in an armbar...sure feels like it! Ah well thx for reading guys, will be in touch tomorrow!! ADCC HERE I COME!!

Quick note!

Alright guys, just a short and sweet one here. Tonight since I work late I will only be able to make it to the competition class!! :*( But I will still let you guys know how it goes. Usually the competition class is trained in with gi, BUT with ADCC coming up (This ADCC tourney is no-gi only) we will start training in no gi until after the competition is over.  Also , not all white belts compete as much as  I do. I have competed in 5 tournaments so far in my short jiu jitsu career, and placed in 3 /5....and each time I place I have taken 1st. The problem i was having with not placing was being gassed. Rest is super important and diet is as well. I dont have the diet down yet, but I sleep 9-10 hours every night for 2-3 nights leading up to my tournaments. It makes the world of difference. Also I'm gonna start combating my pre-match nerves by listening to IPOD right up until my matches. Sorry this was alot more than I wanted to put up here. Also, going to the gym( the weight lifting gym)...but not to lift weights hehe. Gonna go roll around on the few mats that they have. I look like an idiot but it helps me with balance and flow drills!!!
