Utah Judo Class: March 4th… bring the pain!
So I have a funny story to tell. We showed up to Judo last night (the class is really filling up BTW), and Mike, our teacher starts by saying, “So I read on someone’s blog that they need to improve their cardio… You can all thank Steve for today.” I cringed. Of course Mike is too great a guy to actually cause the rest of the class to beat me to death in a dark alley, but he did step thinks up a bit and really get the blood pumping. It was a great class!
Basically, this week we work on four key throws, and four key pinning/sumbission tecinques. Plus, as we worked through the throw we cycled through the whole class, so you could really get a feel for people of all shapes and sizes, as opposed to the person you tend to get matched up with. As a note: I definitely learned that I prefer to fight people who only weight 100 pounds… they are much easier to throw. I think I may go raise some hell in a pigmy community somewhere.
Wonderful class as usual. great folks, learned lots of cool stuff, got a good workout. Looking forward to competing.
