Last week I spent the week learning the different functions and uses of the Carotid and Radial arteries in the quest to save a life. This week we’ve taken that knowledge in the opposite direction. And by We, I mean my opponents. Needless to say I’m bruised, scraped up, I’ve sprained my finger, and I’m exhausted. To say nothing of the L5R Charity tourney/drunken birthday bash on the third. It’s been a long week and a half since I graced you all with my presence.
It’s been a hellish week, with next week promising even more fun. And by “fun” I mean injuries both internal and external. I’ve managed a meager presence on VSR, but as for blogging worth the time to read… it’s been beyond me emotionally and(Tuesday at least) physically.
Tomorrow we get the day off of the arm press and roll, arm trap and roll, and any other variation of abusing an arm for the sole purpose of gaining a dominant position. I wish I could explain how incredibly strange it is to hear ‘Worst case, check their Carotid artery to make sure they’re still alive. You have to do everything you can to keep them that way’ one week, followed by ‘This is their carotid artery. Push hard enough and their brain will stop getting the blood it needs. Normally you’ll just try this to make them black out.’ a mere 7 days later.
Also: The illuminati scare me.
