<\/a><\/p>\nGot to train with Casey as class-mate-class-mate rather than student-jiujitsuteacher for the first time. (see previous entry for pic).<\/p>\n
Saturday, I did Hot Yoga in the morning. I decided not to do grappling….. My foot is swollen (from Thursday). Poor baby! \ud83d\ude41 I felt like this:<\/p>\n Like this: ANYWAY then I went to sparring, determined to just avoid kicking with my left foot. IN MY FIRST MATCH my right foot slammed into someone’s ….something and omfg it hurt like hell. I’m trying to pay attention to distance. It was a sloppy kick and I’m so mad at myself.<\/p>\n I felt like this:<\/p>\n I fought three more rounds trying to ignore it, but finally I couldn’t walk anymore, so I sat out with an ice pack.<\/p>\n SO PISSED OFF.<\/p>\n I sat there watching everyone sparring, thinking about that night. Raquel Pennington fighting Jessica Andrade. It could have been me. If I had won my fight, I would still be in the UFC. :{<\/p>\n I sat there dwelling and dwelling. I had goals for sparring. I hadn’t accomplished them yet. F- you body! So set a new goal – keep sparring! I went back and sparred TWO MORE ROUNDS! \ud83d\ude00 And thus felt not like a wuss and very accomplished. I did okay not kicking with either of my legs.<\/p>\n Then, I decided to do a spinning backfist on my partner. He decided to step into it and my forearm hit…some bone. His arm or shoulder?<\/p>\n

\nAnd other stuff. <\/p>\n
\nThe room was crowded so I had to get a spot near the humidifier and heater. omggggggg I wanted to pass out. I felt dizzy like 3 times. x_x A lady next to me said she felt nauseous. <\/p>\n

\nI usually try to pick out a regular and watch them and base my performance on them. On the other hand, if nobody else around me can balance, I don’t feel so bad if I can’t. My thighs were so sore from Fridays’s training that I was having trouble doing the squatting poses. *feels wimpy* \ud83d\ude41<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
\nYou’re not training to be the best in the world, you’re training to be the best in the world on your worst day.<\/em> ~Ronda.
\nSo your foot hurts…you’re going to stop training because of your dumb foot?<\/em><\/p>\n
