Getting Back to It

As an elementary schooler I was introduced to a wrestling program held at my local high school and I immediately fell into the life. By the time time I was in middle school it was in my blood. For a couple years I even wrestled two different seasons, folkstyle at school and freestyle through a club. Late in high school and after I became more interested in Jiu-Jitsu, Boxing, and other martial arts.

Now about a decade after I left the wrestling room for the last time I’ve finally made up my mind to attend a local BJJ gym. It’s been so long I’d forgotten how great it feels to be back on the mat. However I’m more out of shape than I’d like to be but I should catch up after some regular attendance. The next time I’m able to hang out with my MMA-interested friends, I’ll be able to flex my new BJJ knowledge.
