Wed Sept 2/15 BJJ

Got to LEMMA around 6:00 pm… Matt the grasshopper was in… gave us a nice little animal styled warm-up movements and then we did a bunch of passing drills. Similar to my Sunday classes.

Leg drag drilling something similar to below… only to seat the knee between the legs…

Bull fighter, Matador or Toreando pass… only to keep the grips and drop the outside shoulder for pressure and connection, instead of going knee to belly. I’ll be honest, I’m a fan of the knee belly, I drop the shoulder if my opponent is really big, and I’m fighting tooth and nail…

Then x-pass…

Man was I ever drained lol

Not even sure we rolled… ah well… I was pooched.

Matt Veal showed me a cool submission… the diamond choke, which looks is similar to a standard leg triangle. But with the legs reversed… once I find a video I will post…

Yep pulled again this morning…

Actually its only been a few days a week, if not only 1 day a week amongst 5 days actually training BJJ. Not bad especially when it involves a lot of wrestling. Believe me… I suck at takedowns. This class improves it…

Got to LEMMA around 5:00 pm… I partnered with Big Rig. Thor had us work on the back step pass, then a knee through to a straight arm while in a seated mount or kimura. Rolled with Justin, a young newer white belt, & worked on stand-up stuff with Big Rig. Big Rig hurt his back a while back… gotta nurse those injuries home boy.

Yep pulled this morning…
