Exhausting Drill

A drill in last night's Levels 3/4 class went as follows, but not necessarily in this order:

  • Pick up the 10 lbs. medicine ball and run the length of the mat covered floor area (54’) and then pick up the practice red gun at the other end of the floor and run back. Do this for 1 minute.
  • I attack my partner with Level 1 chokes for 1 minute.
  • Run the length of the floor with the medicine ball and then the practice red gun for 1 minute.
  • My partner attacks me with Level 1 chokes for 1 minute.

  • My partner and I retzef (continuous motion) slow pace fight for 2 minutes.
