2026 Training Log Part 34

On the Stereo today- Faith No More

Wait for this.

For the first time ever, I almost went a whole week without training ANYTHING. Such was last week. Very busy and still struggling a little with my back, but I just about got in there with one session as I returned to the mat!

Saturday

Full training. NoGi.

Warm Up 10 mins mobility.

30mins First to score- Seated/Standing

30mins First to score- J-Point start.

Thought to myself, you know, this is the worst session you could possibly return to. And then I did it anyway. I felt a little tight on Sunday morning afterwards, but by and large, a successful return to the mat. I think I’m capable of full training now, but I’ll still follow physio advice.

Training Thoughts of the Week

Felt so good to get back on the mat, and the average age of the lads on the mat must have been about 21, so a great session to come back to and get stuck into if you want a test of your cardio.

Non-Training Thoughts of the Week

European NoGi Championships are at the end of this month, and I think I’m going to enter despite the bad last few weeks. Truth is, you’re never 100% right, so I just need to make sure I’m able to put some good work in to sharpen up over the next 4 weeks. I’ll be there with my son anyway. I’ll decide in 5 days, I just need to test my back out first.

See you on the mat,

Barry
