Starting from side control and from triangle!

PM class

techniques-

review-
-omoplata from cross grip/spin to turtle setup
-sweep from cross grip/spin to turtle setup

guard drill-
-working on combining spider/butterfly/half/x guard for gi training
-timing is getting better

rolling-
-cross choke from guard is often there! try it more
-guard passing defense is getting better
-clock choke setup- you get one lapel for the choke (from turtle with hooks), but are unable to secure the rolling bow and arrow choke, straight lapel choke, or RNC. control arm underneath and dismount. finish the choke!
-need to start from me being side controlled. there's no other way i'm going to get better unless i start from here with training partners i can trust. need to practice escaping from the bottom and escaping submissions.
-need to start from being triangled. same concept as above. need to build up triangle escape, as that's one of the most common/devastating attacks from the bottom.
-superman triangle escape- having trouble with it being susceptible to armlocks. maybe i'm not stacking properly. need to build up armlock escapes also.

-big hole that's being exposed- my side control escapes are opening me up for spinning armlocks and kimuras. need to find out why and put an end to it. good thing it's been caught in training, and not in a tournament!
