On Tuesday I did sanshou basics class which was awesome. I learned a couple striking combinations. This was really fun but really tiring. Tony is hilarious. At one point he showed us a move that was him striking the opponent in the head about 3 times within 3 seconds. He told us that in American MMA you cannot strike an opponent in the head when they are down BUT in Japanese Sanshou this is legal. I asked him if this could kill the person and he said "oh yea." Ha.
After the Sanshou class we did some MMA and then cooled down and stretched. I really enjoyed this class and think I could get into Sanshou. It is really useful for fighting, self defense, MMA matches, etc...
Last night was the last class I went to. This class is called "The Eliminator." I saw this and knew I had to go. The class lasted for an hour and a half and was unreal. Zero breaks. We just did crazy stuff for that amount of time. Tony amazes me because he does everything with us, he teaches every night and does most classes, he literally just does not get tired. At one point we went from squat jumps to pushups. If you stayed with him you probably would have done 70ish slow good pushups. Everyone in the class was pretty much just on there stomach moaning at the end but Tony was still going strong. Keep in mind that this is after a bunch of other stuff we did.
That is my week so far. 3 nights, 6 classes, 6 hours. I feel good about this all so far and know that if I keep it up I will be in ridiculous shape.
