The guard trio

PM class

-omoplata
-triangle
-arm bar

and combos between those three. very good refresher.

rolling-

-standing feels better than this morning. gaining confidence on the feet. the double leg/fireman's carry combo still gets me sometimes.

-something to consider- 2 on 1 with a gi. need to figure it out.

-reminder- grip fighting

-reminder- attack from side control

-passing feels better than it has in weeks.

-turtle- getting my back taken sometimes by better people. gotta keep at it and figure out defenses and escapes in context.

-x-guard to paragon half guard works well when they drop a knee next to your head and you can't sweep them with the x-guard ankle sweep.



things to practice-

-STANDING- off balancing opponent, osoto gari, o goshi, kouchi gari, double leg, single leg, ankle pick, arm drag

-GUARD- x-guard, spider guard

-PASSING- knee slide, scissor pass, leg on shoulder pass, over/under pass (passes on both sides)

-HALF GUARD- pass to half guard, kimura, americana, straight arm lock, arm triangle, mike's pass, marcelo pass, kick back pass

-SIDE CONTROL- posture breaking and control, kimura, americana, straight arm lock, letting opponent get half guard again so i can practice passing

-MOUNT- maintaining mount, flowing to KOS

-KOS- use often to transition

there's various other things i want to practice.

main ideas- i need to get competent at the feet so that i can control the pace of a fight in a tournament. on the ground i need to start dominating on passing. i need to put myself in bad situations (side control, back) and escape. gonna take some time before i get better at it, but i NEED to be working on escapes. also, submission escapes (guillotine, triangle, arm bar to start).
