My last training at Bali MMA -- with a nice memory as a reward

in steemitbjj •  7 years ago 
My last training is in the books.

I have not trained as much as I wanted to but Bali got the better of me and laying on the beach or going on adventures with the scooter was often more appealing than getting choked out by sweaty dudes and dudinnes.

Tomorrow I go back to Phuket so it was a "you have to do this" kind of thing to train one more time and say my goodbyes till next time.

The training was awesome as usual. If you into BJJ and want to train on Bali I can only recommend the gym. The classes are usual really small, the trainer is funny and a mean choking machine from Brazil and the people are friendly.

We did Omoplatas today in a couple of varieties 1 was kind of a ninja version I will probably never try in sparring but it was fun.

But my personal highlight was this photo
One is Alistair Overeem the other one me

I hesitated a bit to ask for a picture but as he was not training or eating I thought it should be fine. We chatted for a bit about Wim Hof and he said he wanted to track on the volcano as well so I showed them my pictures from my tour.

"My last training at Bali MMA" This kind of life is always sweet, in life, I had a dear friend in my life, but today he has died of cancer. I have a lot of sweet things with him. We miss these days all the time.

sry to hear that.

That's a cool pic that's looking solid punch :D

Hahhaha those ninja technique situations are so funny. Like, everyone knows it aint gonna work but drills it anyway :D

But I guess the use of these ninja moves is not actually to work during the fight, but just to make you more aware of your body, how it can enter the technique from completely different position than default etc etc..it just connects stuff in the brain, probably even more than we realize while drilling them.

And if we ever pull it of during the roll and it's on camera. Hell yeah, it's our hero moment :D

that is a good point.

The higher belts could probably make it work on me pretty easily though and have their hero moment.

Hey Cool, ich habe sofort gesehen, daß ich Deinen Trainingspartner kenne.
Ich habe einst gerne K1 Boxing auf Eurosport geguckt.
Ich seid ja 2 echte "Kanten"! :-)

Resteem!

er ist kante für uns beide :-)

Habe ich auch immer gerne geschaut.

Danke dir :-)

Ja, er ist schon - selbst über den Fernseher - eine beeindruckende Gestalt.
Aber auf dem Bild wirkst Du keinesfalls schmächtig. Also gehe ich davon aus, daß Du auch eine Kante bist!
:-)

I just caught your article and read that you live in Bali? I never heard of BJJ. What area do you stay? 16 years :) Just wanted to say apakapar 🙌🌺😝

I was just making a holiday here for one month and now I go back to Thailand.

But I will be back.

I stayed in Changgu in a guest house. Was really nice. Kind of looking forward to move on but I know I have a lot to see and do here still also :-)

I hope you could explore the whole island because cangu became really super crowded. I moved there 1999 and left just 2 years ago. Have to take care of my Mom here in Vienna. I am quite homesick, especially in winter. Enjoy Thailand and nice to meet you.

I made some tours but I stayed mostly here. So far it was not so crowded but a lot of tourists but not so bad as kuta. I am quite happy here.

Vienna is beautiful as well though. I was playing poker there from time to time. I really like "Almdudler" ;-)

My house is in Sanur and I will be back in October to escape from the Grey winter here in my Almdudler Land 😂 I love the islands, especially Nusa Penida I wrote about a few times already.
Enjoy Thailand! I am waiting for spring to come.

What a trip that Overeem was at your gym. Dude has been in some wars!

Little odd things like this is one of the reasons I love steemit. Cool photo to share.

I was a bit star struck at first.

did you climb the Agung Volcano? or just a smaller one with the lake? Batur

The small one. But was enough for me already :-)

Du postet viel zu wenig von dir selbst ;-)) Wie lange machst du denn deine Training schon, auch schon früher in Deutschland oder erst in Asien ?

Hab in Deustschland schon angefangen leider sehr unregelmässig aber nur trainiert.

Hatte früher Muay Thai gemacht und das war auch damals der Grund warum ich nach Thailand ging, da ich trainieren wollte. Das war vor ca 11 Jahren. Damals hatte ich mich so in das Land verliebt, dass ich unbedingt dort leben wollte.

Heute tu ich das, ich weiss zwar nicht ob es für immer ist aber Träume können wahr werden.

I hope you had lots of fun on Bali. Maybe it was better to not get your ass beaten too often? 😜

what? this guy trains on Bali as well? hope you only made a photo with him and did not fight against him?!

I am not sure he was not training and hang around the gym and said he leaves in a couple of days as well but I assume he trained a bit.

You can do.You look like a Ninja fighter.

Lol.... 'You have to to this' kind of training. Its really good to work out anyway. I hope you enjoyed it. @flipstar You look really good though #winks

thank you ;-) I hope you are aware I am the small one :-)

Yeaaaaa thought as much. But both of you looks big naa

Keep the training and the dojo and the positive vibes coming. I love seeing someone "working on it", whatever it is. As a former student of Fudoshin, I personally loves me a little sweaty grunting grappling time with a big fat dude on the tatami!! haha....

Thank you for your continued support of SteemSilverGold

Have u tried one in Phuket before?
