I am still going over my photos from the two day seminar – we drilled tons of techniques. One clever little trick is this choke. Call it “Front fist choke while cradling the head from the mount position”. Or, as Neil Melanson put it, “You are jamming a hard bone up into the throat”.  Its a shocking little choke for sure and it is all the more nasty by the fact that, my lord, it takes almost no pressure at all to impose enough pain for a submission from your opponent.

Sounds like all that Rocky stuff is a bit of a myth for the cage goers.

As I am striving to get away from refined sugars and grains, one of the things I have as breakfast is Quinoa, a grain from Peru with a delicious taste. Its rich and healthy with a high protein content, and a full set of amino-acids to provide a full protein source. Wikipeida has the lowdown on this foodstuff. Add it to your breakfast plan.

quin1Prepare: 100 grams per serving. Use a rice-like ratio of 2 parts water to 1 part Quinoa. Bring to a boil and cook for another 15 minutes on low heat. Stir in chopped walnuts, banana, raisins, cinnamon. Serve into a bowl and top with Yogurt. Eat.

You can also do a savory version of Quinoa for later in the day, as in a pilaf or Yang Chow rice. I should try that one.
