Day Eight

Yoga, Lifting
The 10 sun salutations felt really good this morning. I also did half a dozen of them prior to Jujutsu class last night. Lifting was excellent today. I am a solid four weeks into serious and regular lifting and I am really seeing gains in weight and reps.

Jujutsu
Last night was an excellent class. One Sensai went through the Yawara list with me and offered a lot of critique. The other did the same with Nage. A couple of themes I noticed were that I was not putting my base foot on the center line of Uke's body and that I was using my upper body to do the throws instead of my core / hips. I'll be going through my notebook and jotting down everything I can remember at lunch today.
