#heavyweights

Irony was that the class was full of the heavy weights lol. 15 mins hard warm-up, 45 mins of with the knee slice pass and chained submission drilling. 15 mins review of 2 paper cutter variations, first from the north south, then second from knee-on-belly. We then finished with 3 x 5 min rounds of rolling, think they were fairly tough rounds lol.

Either way it was a productive class.

Ossss

My homie Andrew’s BDay… 
Got in early, swept the mats, warmed up and stretched for 45 mins. I really need to started rowing again… seriously. Hard getting a good work out town, especially in the summers, with 12 to 16 hours of your day on the job lol… 
Ended up doing a hard 20 min warm-up run by Nathan, 20 mins reviewing 2 variations of the paper cutter strangle, then a 20 mins shark tank starting for the Bday boy. 
10 mins for him on the bottom starting with closed guard, then 10 mins for him inside others closed guard until either the first point or submission for the next person in line.
Marc definitely loved it lol.
Yes we all lined up lol… fresh for the bday boy.

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.

image

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…

Got to LEMMA around 1:45 pm… only myself, Morgan, & Travis was in…

We warmed up with a bunch of 20 rep exercises, with shrimping, rolling, lunges and even planks. Yes, planks. LOL

image

We ended up reviewing a passing concept, a monkey stance standing guard breaking concept, a x-collar choke variant that I watched on an old Japanese black and white judo video, and then defending against a reverse scarf side control hold. Learnt a few things.
