#Jiujitsu class tonight, followed by an hour+ of open mat.

I find so much of a joyful response from my body and mind when I engage in the community of friends at my local gym. The challenge of training, refining each other in the heat of competition, with a mutual decision that win or lose, it does not matter. Only that we are improving. #bjj seems to channel me into a “journey” over “destination” mindset.

Day by day. Brick by brick. Better.

100% would rather be rolling than weightlifting. Definitely appreciate the brotherhood, and mutual goals of improving on mind and body together. :)

It’s so hard to find a balance when it comes to mat time and lifting. Gone are my days of cramming as much as I can into my days. Now I maybe hit weights for a very fundamental 5x5 like twice a week on a good week. I treat mat time similar, at least the more open mat times and hard rolling.

🍻 cheers to tomorrow and the next friend
