BJJ

1.5 Hours BJJ

I am going to be sore tomorrow!  This means that I did it right!

We continued the scissor sweep.  I am really getting a feel for the techniques involed; namely: lapel hand punch towards sweep side, pistol grip hand pull, sweep side leg chop, and opposite side leg hoist, all at once! 

I gassed hard very early (during drills) due to the intense warm up.  Professor had us do some intense cardio/plyometrics involving chain style (using other people, one after the other, little rest) drills.

During rolls I tapped a higher belt from the back (first time!).  I got him in what I thought was a loose lapel choke, but i guess it was tight in the right places.

I rolled vs the Professor!  This is the 4th time I've rolled with him. I have 5 rolls total vs blackbelts in BJJ.  It went... better than last time.  I spent the WHOLE time defending, which doesn't exactly nab subs, but at least I didn't rush into a triangle or his guard.  In fact I played my whole game under his center of gravity but that didn't stop him from locking up a triangle. 

I am so busy being off balanced that I can't mount any sort of offense!
