    img_0177I woke up this morning with one of the tell-tale signs of Judo.  It’s funny, but it seems I always have bruises on my arms since I took up Judo.  They don’t really hurt, but they can be an interesting conversation starter.

    For those of you who also do Judo, I’m sure you know what I mean.  For anyone who doesn’t let me explain: In Judo, the Gi isn’t just some fancy piece of clothing, or a traditional uniform.  Judo uses clothing a lot for gripping, throwing, and choking people.  Although this is possible without the Gi, you will go through an awful lot of torn shirts in a month.  The Gi is much more durable and tough.

    As you grip the Gi, often times you also get a bit of what’s inside it :)
