no gi- guillotine defense

1. from standing- hands in hips, butterfly sweep over, turn into them and get on top.
2. from sprawl (head and arm)- sit out towards trapped arm, continue spin and put pressure on back of shoulder with back of head. spin out and lock front head and arm.
3. from sprawl (head and arm)- sit to half guard, come around to back.
4. from guillotine, they start to pull guard- hands in hips- front flip over to feet plant, turn into them and get on top.
5. from locked guillotine (arm in)- shoulder pressure into chest, twist hips out and look away from them. tripod up and don't let them stretch you out. weight more in stomach area to avoid off-balance. head pressure on back of elbow, pry open the lock. pin arm to mat immediately.
6. from locked guillotine (no arm)- crossface, twist hip out, pry wrist, pin wrist to mat.

some double leg details-
-retract arms back quickly during shot to avoid getting underhooked
-step outside and block outside leg with your knee on the takedown

Hand on hip toreando

some details-

-elbow always inside- never let top leg come underneath
-lean forearm on thigh
-pin knee to mat
-stagger sprawl immediately with leg between your legs (or knee line pointing between)
-hand on knee stuffs knees across as you pass

entries-
-from standing guard opener
-from sitting butterfly

-dive hand in hip and hand to knee, sprawl legs back
-keep in mind which leg is the half guard leg and trail it behind (lead leg slightly more forward)

vs. resistance-
-switch hand on hip to same side knee (2 on 1 knee momentarily), and then hand reaches for collar
-head in hip or shoulder (hip is better here)

drills-
-half guard pull stuff (give leg)
-vs. sitting butterfly entry
-vs. sitting butterfly with resistance (switch to counter)

keys-
-hand on hip pressure
-staggered sprawl
-do not give legs- passing becomes much harder
-weight more on hands
-quick entry- fast move- take them by surprise
-don't allow them to have a guard
-one step ahead
-can do with or without grips- can place heel of palm on hip pocket instead of getting the pants grip if you are trying to enter quickly

questions-
-counters? seems like the hand on the knee is the one to block and do the roll over reversal?
-follow up if they throw the leg over? leg on shoulder?

drills to practice-
-sitting butterfly entry (both sides)
-sitting butterfly entry vs. resistance (switch to counter)
-hitting the pass immediately off of the guard pull

Opening the guard

1. Knee opening. Hands in hips, knee in butt, open base, open second knee and straighten arms to open.
Hand on hip toreando. Push knee down to mat, sprawl low (adjustment-hips were too high). Stuff knee and spin to pass the guard. Knee under thigh. Grab head.

2. Two standing opening variations. Hand on collar or sleeve grip. Knee in to counter lumberjack sweep.

*lumberjack sweep- push off mat with hand.

Elbows always in.

In grip battle- always have arm on top. Break down posture.

dlr and sit up guard

putting it together.

1. dlr cross sleeve grip to back.
2. same side leg lasso (robson/cobrinha move) to sweep. can armlock to finish.
3. they counter #2 by ripping arm partway out, you apply pressure to back of elbow with knee and sweep. can armlock to finish.

others that i missed yesterday-
-they stuff dlr far leg- waiter sweep
-omoplata off of dlr

*closed eyes sensitivity/timing drill

Reverse half

They jump to reverse half from sit up series.

Grab nearside collar and stiffarm knuckles into throat. Hip of and come to knees.

If they counter by planting hand and trying to jump back, track with hand and redirect to other side. Come up for the sweep.

Sit up guard with butterfly hook

Same positions as yesterday with butterfly hook addition.

Back take- go for drag down with hook. They base with hand- extend hook and take back. Choke depends on side you have. Choking hand wrong- collar choke with leg over shoulder. Choking side correct- tight shoulder.

Can sit into hook from botched single leg.

Random- finish back collar choke with leg over shoulder. Angle knee inward to increase pressure.

Must work on single leg/ankle pick.

Must get back to x-guard vs certain styles.

Sit up guard

1. Far arm sweep. Ankle sweep entry. Feed same side arm to dlr side hand. Sit up with push off. Grab tricep and push out knee as you pull them down. Switch knee pass to crossface to dope mount. Ezekiel finish.

2. Near side arm sweep. Cross sleeve grip, feed underneath to oher hand. Grab for opposite knee palm up, roll under with knees to chest. Bump them in butt with knee to break balance. Roll over. Push knee to mat and pass backside. Grab underhook collar. Take back or pass.

3. Single leg. You go for number 2 but they backstep you or have knee too far to grab. Put hand down and stand to base. Ankle pick to leg drag with foot in hip pocket. Knee on mat, stay tight, backside pass to back.

4. Knee slide cross choke counter. They go for knee slide cross choke ad you go for number 2 sweep. Bump with knee and take over. If they base with both hands, go to back. Roll them to the side they go.
