My first dinner-time session for a while and it was pretty tough going, with a round of 20 exercise repetitions with each person in a class of 20 shouting a new exercise until everyone has suggested something. So 20 people by 20 repetitions means 400 repetitions. Nice...
It was then into technique drills with the emphasis on shoulder pressure from side control to pin the bottom man, then following the position up with a cross choke, a baseball bat choke by stepping over and moving to north-south, a step-over arm bar attack and a very cool triangle by securing the opponent's arm at the side and puling the opponent over into a triangle guard.
I was protecting my injury a bit but I still sucked at specific sparring and matters didn't improve much at normal sparring. But I've been off for five weeks. It will take a few sessions to get back up to speed.
It's just good to be back.
Things to remember: Shoulder pressure; triangle attack by isolating the opponent's arm on your hip.
