Sorry, gentle reader, if you’re getting tired of the Pop Pop schtick, but….
Today at my second BJJ class of the day, which featured more advanced belts than white belts and focused on a variety of escapes that involved explosively folding your body in half, I received the “Bless your heart, do the best you can, old man” from the instructor who I think said he is only a couple years younger than I am.

Meanwhile, please remind me in a couple of days that I am not actually coming down with a stomach virus. Any time I have a good ab workout (which, clearly, is not often enough), the stiffness/soreness makes me think I’m getting sick instead of stronger.
