CrossFit methodology says "learn and play new sports", and I have been really wanting to try BJJ. So I went to a Mixed Martial Arts studio and took my first Jiu Jitsu class.
It was awesome, we spent about half the time learning several moves. First a choke using arms, then from that into an arm bar, then moving from that into a leg choke.
After than we did several matches of 5 min each. it was like doing several WODs in a row... I get the "Fight Gone Bad" wod now. Its 5 mins of going all out, and someone trying to choke you, so you cant breath. then a quick rest then going again.
Think this is going to be part of my Saturday routine!
That sounds awesome Corey! There's a place in Tukwila Scott referred me too that I was going to look in to!
