Wed June 4/15 BJJ
Got to LEMMA around 6:00 pm…
NIOCE…
Got some mat time with big white belt Colin… 220 lbs.
He’s improving damn, so strong and big. Grips and strength are BOOM-digity-DATA.
30 minutes with this big boy!
Open mat prior to class was in the cage…
He definitely has cage awareness lol,
kept putting me into the fence. Used it well lol
Coach Matt was sore today, so good old David Letourneau aka “Diesel ” ran the show last night…
I partnered with Nathan the Professor X… slick dude slick…
Minus the fact your stubble sticks to my GI hahahaha
Class Warm-up: (Arm-bar Drilling, 2 mins each)
- Standard Arm-bar, from closed guard
- Fat Man arm-bar, from closed guard
Lost in arm-bars… in fact 4 variations, mainly fat man ones, at least that what i call them, with different entries, grips, and options in attacking the the opposite arm for the omaplata and even just sweeping. Then we rolled with 3 min rounds. I find the 3 min rounds are the bruisers… everyone seems to go sooo freaking hard crazy crazy…
Rolling: (3 min rounds, 30 sec break)
- Diesel
- Travis Duncan
- Brittany
- Michael Maronese
Someone had the most stanky ass GI… thought it was me.
NOPE!
Not sure who… Wash that shit homie!
Kinda sore lol… smashed by bigger dudes hah?
Great news!
My boy the Frenchman is back from his Brazil trip and he has news…

Sat May 30/15 BJJ
Word… got to the gym at 1:45 pm.
Some guys on the weights
Morgo was in with a guest from the US.
Warm up was short with a a few variation of an ankle pick with a collar tie. Technique involved a slip collar choke transition switch to preposition to the opposing size when your partner defends by moving to the opposite side of the over hook and with your partner turtling to defend. Keith was in for a bit, and he showed us a few variants of the take down which was nice. My favorite was collar tie to a mount guillotine.
Myself, Morgan, Aria, Scotty P, Big Rig, New guy white belt Alex with the nice blue GI…
Luke was late missing the warm-up per usual.
LOVE CHOKE’s
For the remainder of the class we position-ally drilled the back exercise with 2 minute rounds, you on me, then me on you exercise, until everyone had an opportunity to go with everyone. Similar to Submission Challenges or even EBI’s sudden death or over time rounds.
We tried with full lapel grips first… no dice.
Figure got shot except mine of course..:P
Then moved to just starting with the full harness…
Positional Strangling: (2 min rnds, then switched roles)
- Aria
- New guy white belt Alex
- Big Rig
- Scotty P
- Morgo
- Luka
Yep Lots of Choking!
You missed out… caught him in the wild!
