Three days of #jiujitsu in a row at three different gyms. Paying super close attention to nutrition, inflammation and recovery and feeling pretty good.
Also re-committing to my sports psychology confidence course. When I let those tools lapse is when things go the wrong way.
So there's six months or so until the promotion cycle where I *could* get my black belt. My intention right now is to ramp up my training until then. I've got so much training data that *should* be able to direct my training intensity and volume...let's see how this goes. If my metrics indicate I'm good to train, I'll train. If they indicate rest, I'll rest.
Three days in a row hard rolls - I earned this feast! #MelroseMA #jiujitsu
Gonna get a little Saturday #jiujitsu in at Gym 2 today. Couldn't bring myself to go in for competition rounds last night. Feeling like maybe need to get my #nutrition dialed in better for more energy.
Usually when I come home from #jiujitsu, I have a healthy protein shake filled with greens and berries.
Tonight I had cold cuts from the bag and a beer. That kind of night.
I made this Inclusive BJJ #starterpack for #bluesky
go.bsky.app/CeRsDfk
and then found a bigger one Kesting made called Anti-fascist BJJ. 
I guess I'll keep mine and see what I can find. Can't have too many I guess.
More or less leftish, human rights supporting, critical thinking, anti-racist, #antipseudoscience, #antifascist #BJJ practitioners. #Abolition/ #decolonization/ #FreePalestine oriented.
Had a fun night of #jiujitsu at a friend's gym last night. Good nogi rounds. Now heading for an open mat at a different gym. My old ass is gonna be hurting later.
Did competition rounds at gym 1 last night and upper belt rounds at gym 2 this morning and my old bones are HURTING
So I kinda got a raise. My wife wants me to get a new car but instead I joined a second #jiujitsu gym
First night back at #jiujitsu after recovering from covid. Holy shit, where did my gas tank go?
I've got COVID and am on paxlovid, which means I can't go to #jiujitsu , can't go to the movies, can't drink beer, and my game group isn't meeting. I don't have a single thing to do this weekend and I am not good at that!
Well, I am changing my name, so a
new #introduction seems apt...
I'm Raven!

Starting the process of moving away from #meta owned platforms is going to be hard, and IDK how to get other folks on here, but I love this space more than Bluesky or anything else really.
I like using #Signal for comms and stories, so I guess that part is figured out.
Other interests I have...

#webdesign (check out my #hugo theme: https://betterwebsites.dev)
#carfree inspired by @notjustbikes

In jiu-jitsu class last night...
Me: I just got kneed in the face, I hope I don't get a black eye
K: I think I have a bruise on my ass
Me: oh, I often have those anyway. For other reasons.
K: *cackles* Is it jiu-jitsu... or fucking?? Dude, never change.
More evidence for my hypothesis that a significant percentage of #JiuJitsu players are queer, kinky or both...
Sunday morning #jiujitsu in the books. Good rolls; passing on point and caught a new submission on a white belt. Time to throw it at a blue!
