Went to SCMA for BJJ with John. We did a lot of drilling down the mat:

• Shrimping (both legs).
  
• Shrimping (one leg).

• Kimura.

We finished with some rolling.

...

Stayed at SCMA for no-gi with Jimbo. We did some butterfly guard stuff. I rolled with Jimbo for a long time and got subbed twice, I think. But it was a good roll and I pulled off a lot of moves.

4-3-2007

Went to Judo Class. We covered for nagewaza:

• Ouchi gari.
  
• Osoto gari.
  
• Ippon seoinage.
  
• Tai otoshi.

Then we did some newaza:

• Yanking turtle turnover.
  
• Waki jime.

We did some randori too. I was doing my funky left-side harai to Sam, but we were going to hit someone else. When I stopped my kuzushi, Sam drove into me. Stubborn, I didn't ukemi and simply landed on my posting leg's knee.

Nothing seems torn, but the bruise is very bad and it swelled up a lot. I took the Jiu-Jitsu class off - icing my knee during practice. Lessons learned: Don't every stop a throw midway no matter what. Ukemi rather than land badly on all fours.

...

Being stupid, I went to SCMA for practice. John had us practice chokes:

• Gyaku juji jime from guard.
  
• Gyaku juji jime from mount.

We rolled too, but my knee hurt. When I rolled with Brad, I put all his weight on it by accident. My knee hurt a lot, so tapped and took the rest of the day off.

• Hearts = armbar.
  
• Diamonds = triangle.
  
• Spades = elbow press.
  
• Clubs = kimura.

We rolled for a little bit, but I didn't roll because of my knee.

...

Went to SHJ for BJJ. Bobby's ringworm is finally gone so he taught class. We covered some guard work:

• Gyaku juji jime using the bottom of his collar.
  
• Rolling sweep when he defends.

We also did a choke that I don't like. We rolled for a little bit, but I didn't roll because of my knee.
