Spar (30 mins): 3 eight minute rounds.
Cool down (15 mins): Stretch.

Tuesday:

Wednesday:

Friday:

Warm-up (15 mins): Jog, core, shrimps, etc.
No Gi Technique (30 mins): Stuff that’s specific to no-gi.
No Gi Spar (30 minutes): 3 eight minute rounds.
Cool down (15 minutes): Stretch.

Saturday:
Warm-up (10 mins): Jog, core, shrimps, etc.
Drills (10 mins): High rep arm bars, triangles, etc., emphasizing core and hip movement.
Spar (30 mins): 3 eight minute rounds.
Cool down (10 mins): Stretch.

Sunday:
Blessed day of rest

I realize that my ideal schedule is quite selfish in that the bulk of the technique is taught in private lessons…but that’s why it’s an ideal. I feel like I’m exposed to far more instruction in daily group classes than I can reasonably absorb. Struggling to find the learn/implement balance.
