Baseball bat chokes are sooooo powerful! Join me this week as we take a look Wednesday at 8PM.Don't forget the best part, #WristlockWednesday

I'll have to get a little creative to make it fit with this weeks techniques but join me to see what I have in store!

Answer 1, I think drilling is great and think Tim's description of what it can be is great.Answer to question 2, it isn't a specific technique, it is just drilling. Need to do more drilling.

I love the closed guard and this weeks techniques are great ones!

The pendulum sweep is a great sweep and if you miss it can lead to an armbar. If you are good at defending it there can even be a wristlock 😈

Come see me this week for #wristlockWednesday

What a great week ahead. On Wednesday we'll look at how to get to the ground and what to do once you get there.

Best of all, I've spent a lot of time over the last few months coaching kids wrestling so let me help you with the classic double leg take down we are covering. 

I usually only get to train gi due to schedules but I too enjoy both.

I love gi for various reasons, most already mentioned. I will say you can adapt your gi game if you are careful to make it very applicable to no gi so there is that. 

The cross choke is such a classic and when done well unstoppable. There are videos of Roger Gracie telling people it is coming and when, but yet they can't stop it. See you Wednesday night as we all try to get that proficient!

Exciting week this week. I love the scissor sweep. Highly under rated and can be used in no gi with success too!

Opening the Closed Guard is not just a great book (look it up), but its a fundamental skill.

Closed guard has so many attacks and sweeps, being able to effectively remove yourself from it is key. Join me Wednesday at 8PM as I share some of my favorite details. These details are perfect if you are just starting to build a wonderful foundation or even to give a different perspective if you are more advanced.

Control is better no matter our goal of jiu jitsu if it exercise, sport/competition, or self defense. If you can maintain control the submission will come. 

I think control is great no matter your desired training reason. If it is fitness control might be more about controlling yourself. If self defense, it is obvious you want to control the other person and maintain your safety or the safety of others. If competition is your goal, control will lead to submissions and enough control will wear down your opponents energy.

We may not all admit to it, but we all have that one partner or friend where the ultimate goal is submission. Don't lie, you know you do or have had one.

The headlock escape is such an undervalued movement in my opinion. So often people who don't grapple or when people first start all they want to do is grab the head. Show up this week and take a look at what to do when this happens.

Once you escape you should find your self in side control. Fear not we're also going over how to get on top from side control. Top control, mount, or top mount is one of the most dominant positions you can get to!
