After the decision to write about my BJJ progress again I was kind of excited to go training today.
At the moment I train at Tiger Muay Thai, one if not the biggest Muay Thai camp in Thailand
Usually I enjoy it a bit more to train in a smaller camp but the training times are a bit inconvenient for me at the moment.
The focus on todays training session were armbars from different positions.
Most went pretty well but from sidecontrol I still had some problems making the turn smoothly and not falling to far away of which would give me less leverage but overall I am happy with the session today.
sidecontrol
Towards the end of the session there was some sparring as every session. Today it were 3 rounds, each 5 minutes.
Round 1 was with another white belt. I would say we are on the same experience or better inexperience level so it was really fun as we both could land a couple of submissions but also really exhausting.
I was actually already done when the second round 2 started and rolled with a blue belt. He was smaller than me so I could defend him off for a bit but could not start any attacks by myself. My highlight were that I could hold him done in sidecontrol for a while.
Round 3 I was more like a trainings dummy and could not do anything anymore really.,
I will need a bit longer to get used to the climate in Thailand again especially with the Gi.
Not sure if I will go to the evening session today or maybe just take a dip into the pool.
