Just sharing this with everyone if you haven’t seen it before: http://www.aesopian.com/ A really good website/blog that has just about everything. Most technique sites just have vids but this one has some good articles, tips and hints for beginners to advanced guys.
I was just thinking about injuries. That means you now have to read about injuries. Injuries suck. They keep you out of training, off the mat, away from the gym and almost invariably, on the couch. This is bad for a couple of reasons. Number 1, you don’t get to train, this is filed under … Continue reading
I have a few things I want to achieve athletically and coachingly (it’s a word, possibly) in the next few months, and I’m just starting to push the buttons on a few things I need to have happen before I can achieve them. It’s time to begin my preperation for my next fight which will … Continue reading
This week I’ve had my mind blown from rolling with Rafael and Guilherme Mendes. As I said the week before the seminars, if you train BJJ don’t know who these guys are, then google them and the next time you’re talking to me, pretend like you knew all along.

Between one thing and another, of the last 8 opponents I’ve had fixed for fighters from my gym, 7 have dropped out and left my fighter in the lurch. I’m going to tell tales out of school now, why not? Fighter X is first. He agreed to a fight with one of my guys on … Continue reading
Some days of not too much training to catch up on. It’s Thursday and basically I haven’t done a damn thing all week thanks to my hand. It was fine until rolling on Monday night when I tweaked it a little and now it’s quite sore, sore enough to keep me out of BJJ last … Continue reading
It’s time to start getting excited. We have someone visiting from Hungary to get to train with these guys. Seriously, a man called Peter is flying from Hungary, staying in a hotel here and doing our seminars with the Mendes brothers. That’s dedication. Be sure to shake his hand when you see him. If you … Continue reading
