NAGA Pittsburgh Tournament (2024)

Spidy

Well Liked OG P4P Great

So just a quick update.

Last night was my last official jiu-jitsu class before the tournament, and it was a good class. My division should be starting around 1:00 PM on Saturday, and weigh ins are between 6-8 PM tomorrow night. The weigh in as of right now is my biggest concern, because although I know I can make the weight, I have a tendency to stress-eat, so the potential for self sabotage is still there. Just to be on the safe side, even though I've been drinking a lot of water today, I've been walking around in sweats and a redneck sauna suit (a garbage bag with holes cut in it like a shirt) for about three hours now. Also, nature just called, so that's probably another pound or so gone.

I'm gonna do a taekwondo class with the garbage bag, and then before leaving to go see Ant-Man, I'll have some Cambell's Chicken and Rice Soup. When we get home, I'll have an apple and head to bed.

If I'm lucky, I'll have one or two eggs in the morning, and then I'll head down to the gym, turn up the heat, burn off whatever I have to burn off and then just keep myself occupied until I have to leave for the weigh in.

How far off from making weight are you? No stress eating, what would Comor think? NAGA Pittsburgh Tournament (2). Good luck on sat. Nico, hope you enjoy the experience as well as kick some @ss
