Positional Sparring:
6x1min. opponent in my guard
6x1min. in opponent's guard
5x1min. on opponent's back
5x1min. opponent on my back
I love positional sparring.
Rolling
Wrestled with the usual suspects but felt really strong and fast tonight. Submitted a good deal of the people I rolled with but really should've wrestled more than I did.
Just remembered exactly how much i DESPISE the taste of bcaas. yuck.

Some other white belt tried to teach class tonight because Miguel was sparring. He was teaching everything wrong and forgetting a TON of key details. If this happens again, I'm going to call him out on it... for the meantime I just made comments to the other people under my breath and then walked around and corrected people who were doing it wrong.
Rolling
Positional sparring:
6x3min. rounds in various positions
Rolled with a really strong kid who sorta had his way with me. I gassed really fast tonight during free rolling and am fairly disappointed in myself. I really need to start working sweeps more in gi jiu-jitsu and not be so dependent on being as slick as I am in nogi

omoplata from failed triangle
omoplata from sloppy standing guard pass
Rolling
Horrible night of rolling. As always, didn't wrestle all the people I wanted to and didn't roll as well as I'd like to.
Frustrating so adding this in for inspiration.

Wrestled with a few guys, including some other top white belts. Hopefully tomorrow I'll get to roll with our blues and purples.
Had a lot of success with standing collar chokes to takedowns tonight. Worth a try as far as gi goes. Wasn't able to land any of the takedowns that 'Rey' Diogo showed us, but still tried my darndest. Hands are FRIED from grip fighting.
Notes: Missed technique due to work, but got there in time to roll.
