Jiu-Jitsu (Gi):
- Armbar from Guard (forearm / tricep control): grab opponent's sleeve and pull it across your chest. To aid in this, reach UNDER opponent's opposite arm and grab the arm being attacked and pull on the tricep (not sleeve). BUmp hips out to the side and push off opponent's hip in order to swivel hips. Pinch knees together as tight as possible and keep opponent's arm TIGHT to chest.
- Armbar from Guard (double sleeve control): Miguel plays a game where he moves his hips a lot and this is his armbar. He gets double sleeve control and uses opponent's arms to move his hips around. Pretty much the same idea as above, remembering to keep opponent close.
Rolling:
Did fairly well taking opponents' backs tonight from the guard, but I'm still learning collar chokes and I have problems defending them because I don't know what's dangerous and what isn't.
Kickboxing / Conditioning:
Did about 15 minutes of 1 and 2 minute rounds hitting the heavy bag, ab reps, kicks, knees on bag / wall, etc.
