Training is Going Great!!

The Team is going strong! Everyone was put through a tough training session yesterday. And now we will be back at Crazy 88 again tonight to get it in. D'Angelo Kinard from Advanced Sport Performance workouts are doing there job! I do believe everyone who did them yesterday can barley walk today... THIS IS NOT A JOKE!!!!

This is what we have to do to get ready for the big year coming up. Team Lloyd Irvin is working hard to get to the top of the Medal Podiums for every Brazilian Jiu Jitsu event!! To do this we all have to put in the work now. If we didn't we would be just like all the other guys who just talk about what they are going to do. We put in the work now!!!! Results is what we want!!!

There was a saying about Crazy 88 Brazilian Jiu Jitsu going around. It pretty much said that we were the big fish in a little pond. Maryland was a little pond. But we decided to take it to the ocean! We out grew our lake and now we are slowly becoming a Great White eating everything in our path!!! Team Lloyd Irvin isnt playing games!!! I promise you we are going and doing the biggest things! Here is a video from the 2010 Mundials. Now watch it and tell me what do you think we are going to do in the 2011 season??

Team Lloyd Irvin Demolished Chicago!!!

Chicago didn't know what hit them on 8/22/2010. But after the smoke cleared and the people were rescued it was clear. Team Lloyd Irvin came to town and laid down the law!!! After everything was finished and the Brazilian Jiu Jitsu tournament was over TLI ( Team Lloyd Irvin) had 13 Gold medals, 6 Silver medals and 2 Bronze medals. We also won the Chicago International Open Team Tittle!!!

This is going to be the story for a lot of towns around the U.S. Every location that is holding a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu tournament TLI will be there and hungry for gold! Nothing is stopping us from doing what we love and that is Brazilian Jiu Jitsu!

Strength and Conditioning Training with Advanced Sport Perfomance

Today at Crazy 88 Brazilian Jiu Jitsu D'Angelo Kinard with Advanced Sport Performance came by and put us to work!! For a hour everyone was being pushed to the limit. People were throwing up but no one quit! The people taking these classes will be beast by the end of the year! With all the BJJ training and the strength and conditioning programs we are doing there is no doubt everyone will be ready for the 2011 BJJ season. We are going to be the ones talked about at the tournaments. People are going to make up rumors. But the truth is we put in the work early to become the best and perform at our best. So whoever hasn't worked as hard as us will just fall behind.

Chicago here we come!!!

The Chicago International Open is coming up and I am ready to WIN!! This will be my first BJJ tournament as a purple belt. Training has been going super well. I feel my game has evolved a lot since I have been promoted to Roxa. This tournament I will be fighting at Heavy weight. I usually fight at Medium Heavy but we have two people in the division already. So I am bumping up a weight class to take the gold home for Team Lloyd Irvin!
At Crazy 88 Brazilian Jiu Jitsu the training has not stopped. We are sending a nice size team to Chicago to compete. We should kill at this tournament. I know the people at Crazy 88 have been training super hard and nothing is going to stop us!
