NEAR THE QUARTER MARK
Since the start of the year, I have been partnering with Wayne Lakin and United Strength & conditioning in Hinckley to complete a new goal.
This whole thing started off as a WhatsApp group called Old Man BJJ of which as you may guess, a group of old(ish) men got together and started rolling. Five-minute BJJ rounds at least once a week.
Then it became twice a week. Then three. Now it has been just about every day.
While some of the group have set a target of 1000 rounds, I have decided on a more modest target of 200 by the end of the year.
We picked up some new friends along the way including Paralympian and current 2nd in the world (Judo) Dan Powell, and also my BJJ coach Karl Green.
As well as the rolling we are all doing this for men’s mental health and in particular Campaign Against Living Miserably (CALM).
