		<description><![CDATA[I love Jiu Jitsu. But as I&#8217;ve mentioned before, I don&#8217;t want to get sick of it. I competed in a tournament about a week and half ago. I trained hard for the tournament, and often too. Normally I train Jiu Jitsu at my own pace and intensity. But before the tournament I ramped it [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A few of months ago an instructor at Boulder Grappling said this to me: &#8220;Go for the top. Everyone can fight from the bottom.&#8221; These words helped my game grow to a new level relatively quickly. I think there is a point in many people&#8217;s training (well, mine at least) where the novelty of playing [...]]]></description>
