It always does. I used to train at the AACC in the morning, and then again in the evening. But if I go to Ground Slam from 9 -10, I go home and collapse. Well, the sparring is like 5 times more intense than what I&#8217;d do at the AACC. I usually go about 5 rounds or so of hard sparring with the pros at Ground Slam. These last two weeks, I&#8217;ve been getting in weight-lifting at night rather than do the technique class.<br \/>\nYesterday, Michihiro Omigawa said, &#8220;Roxanne, let&#8217;s spar!&#8221; I was like &#8220;Okay!!&#8221; *thinking*(omg will I die?)<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.sherdog.com\/fighter\/Michihiro-Omigawa-13005\" title=\"link to Sherdog's Omigawa page\">link to Omigawa&#8217;s sherdog page<\/a><br \/>\nHe&#8217;s kind of scary, but it went well.  The moment his punch beaned me on the temple, I liked him immediately.  That&#8217;s all I ask, is people actually try and hit me&#8230; sometimes men STILL don&#8217;t strike at me seriously, and it&#8217;s SO ANNOYING. ~_~; But he&#8217;s cool.  <\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>But I have time to do cardio on Wednesday morning and Sunday evening.<br \/>\nAnd I learn good techniques through sparring at Ground Slam.<\/p>\n<p>I think I can see a good balance developing here&#8230;.<\/p>\n<p>Trying to reduce my food intake when not exterting myself. It&#8217;s hard. ;_;<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, last night after lifting weights, I went to a welcome\/farewell party at work after classes ended. My new-old boss was there, and my new-new boss (who, from now on, I will refer to as &#8220;my boss.&#8221;) He&#8217;s Irish. \ud83d\ude00 He likes martial arts, mainly Aikido.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/roxannemodafferi.net\/RBlog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/kawasaki-smaller.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-899\" title=\"kawasaki smaller\" src=\"http:\/\/roxannemodafferi.net\/RBlog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/kawasaki-smaller.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"574\" height=\"354\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nI had a great time at the party. I love it that so many of my male co-workers like MMA. ^^<br \/>\nI swore I wouldn&#8217;t eat anything, but there was pizza and Popeye&#8217;s fried chicken and Taco Bell and other American goodies someone got from on the military base&#8230;.I had ONE small soft chicken taco because YO QUIERO TACO BELL DAMNIT and I wasn&#8217;t able to have anything when I went back for my cousin&#8217;s wedding. &gt;_&lt; It was small! :&lt; and I had skipped my post-lifting protein, so it&#8217;s all good.<\/p>\n<p>Today, I have early lessons, and I&#8217;m able to get off early to go to Deep! Amanda Lucas is fighting! I shall cheer loudly.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Training at Ground Slam wiped me out. It always does.
