Had a really weird training last night:
I'd been slacking, super lazy drinking and eating a lot, lazy way out of shape. Last night was Life Drawing night, but I gave it up to go train instead to get back on the wagon.
There was a 1 hour class at 6pm, then 2 hours from 7-9. I was DONE after the first hour, but made the commitment to stay and finish the rest of the night. Sometimes I wondered if I was being stupid and maybe putting myself in danger by pushing too hard, as sometimes I really felt like I was gonna pass out. But I kept going.
A whitebelt kneed me in the head pretty hard, and we did some judo takedowns that were pretty rough.
But I kept going and somehow found this sort of 'zombie-mode', where I was all done but somehow could keep going like a drunken style lol. I grappled efficiently and actually did quite well! I kept getting quality opponents but somehow gave them a good roll, even getting some positions on better players
What was weird was that there seemed no end to my reserve energy tank, I was completely gassed and sweat like 10lbs of water but somehow, I was up for the next rounds and continued to do well.
Even weirder, there were times when I was even closing my eyes, and could somehow 'see' myself and my opponent in my mind's eye very clearly and could suddenly sense weight and framing and balance much better than I usually do!
Very weird. But I'll take it. Sore today but not too bad, going again tomorrow night.
