Loud pop and pain on the medial part of my knee. Feels more meniscus than mcl, especially with how locked my knee is feeling this morning. I was looking forward to my first IBJJF in two weeks...

Finally got a chance to train again. It's been probably a month or more. I took the first two weeks of April off because of tax season, then the next week was holy week (in LatAm they take most of the week before Easter off. At least in Costa Rica, but I think it's a thing in LatAm in general). Then the week after that was... I dunno. Holiday hangover? Nobody showed up for Tuesday or Wednesday morning classes, and I caught a small cold for the normal Thursday class, which was infuriating. Now, finally, I got to train and it was a good class. The morning class has shrunk considerably because the black belt that taught it has an insane work project going on, but a few blues and purples are still getting together to keep it going.

I expected the quality of instruction, I wasn't prepared for the intangibles of that room, what a training environment.

Was in half guard (top). He kicked through the knee shield and went for the Faria style single leg (which we'd been drilling) without actually clearing his bottom legs from mine. I based out and was starting to go for a darce choke when he decided he just needed to pull harder with his bottom leg and something popped. A little hard to explain, really, but our legs were wrapped up and neither wanted to give in.

I actually considered PMing you, but the whole New York stopover was a very last minute change of plans caused by bad weather loving up my flight out of JFK. That and being hella socially awkward. I didn't catch the name of the guy I ended up drilling with, kinda wiry, facial hair, wry new york kinda ball breaking attitude. Seemed to be a regular and I think black belt but it's hard for me to tell no gi. Even without introduction I felt more welcomed there, as a slightly late arriving tourist, than I did at Rogers when I was early.

Mel Mudkiper posted:Started learning some basic Darce chokes last night They are good. The only sub I've gotten a purple with. My favorite is to hit them as a counter when uke underhooks me from bottom side or half. Then go to gable grip while controlling uke's head. And only when you've wriggled your arm in far enough, then transfer to hand on bicep control for the finish.

Yeah to paraphrase a funny kid mero joke it’s nice to know basic self defense but a kimura or RNC are hard to apply when your face is slashed up from a razor

I had to grapple someone on Tuesday who took a swing at my friend's wife. Also probably saved the kid from being killed by her husband as he's a MASSIVE individual.

So, fun moment in "this poo poo is legit" there were these two eight year old who were checking out the school and a couple of us did big dumb dad rolls with them for fun one of the kids locked in a RNC and it was loving legit. Little 50lb kid choked my rear end out

Yeah I was just amazed that a kid I could shoulder press with one arm could choke me out like nothing if he got the hold in. Honestly I even let him do it because I figured "how bad could it be?" One of those things where you appreciate how much technique matters more than strength.
