New Training Schedule Starting in October

Based on the new schedule for the new Seattle Academy facility, it looks like I'll be training Monday and Friday early classes and Tuesday and Wednesday late classes. Competition team training every other Saturday (for me) and Sundays and Thursdays off-mat.

I'll probably go ahead and start this training schedule in September to get used to the new routine. The only big change is training the late class on Wednesday's instead of the early class.

I'm a little concerned about how to work in 3x/week conditioning, or even 2x, with this schedule. Tuesday still looks like a great day for conditioning, as is Sunday. And that probably makes Thursday the other day in (assuming things aren't too brutal during Wednesday's late class.)

Then again, there's this from the Maestro:
I truly believe that to become great at Jiu Jitsu you just have to do Jiu Jitsu as much as you can. If you can choose between Jiu Jitsu training and weights, always choose Jiu Jitsu.
