2.5 Hours BJJ

We continued drilling the cool advanced open guard setup, but today we worked on different finishes.  My favorite is take the back, but there are also a few different sweeps.

Rolling went well.  I caught some and got caught in some.  My guard passing skills need work/practice.

Today we did a super sweet sweep from open guard.  I wont bother to explain it... honestly it is too advanced for me to pull of in a roll. It is good for my body to go through those motions though.

During rolls I went against a purple, a blue, a 14 year old orange belt (kids world champ!) and a few whites.  I got choked 2x by Cowboy Jim the purple belt.  He did what he called a half moon choke on me.  We started standing and I got in a decent underhook on Jim. I took him off balance but I made a mistake... I transferred my underhook to his shoulder.  Since Jim is taller then me he was easily able to whizzer.

Catch Wrestling - CSW

1.5 Hours Catch Wrestling/Combat Submission Wrestling

I went to a MMA gym down the street from me called CSW Mixed Martial Arts.

I learned some vicious neck cranks that could seriously paralyze someone!  I think I will start training catch wrestling one day a week to supplement my bjj.  The instructor is Erik Paulson, a legend in MA.

During rolls I had a bjjers mentality... I was fighting from my back and working lots of closed guard... I don't think these guys do much closed guard because the 3 people I rolled with didnt seem to know how to pass my guard...  maybe they are used to MMA GnP. Their top game was stellar though.
