Technique wise I definitely need to work on my d’arce and anaconda chokes. I know how they work, I just need to to get them both refined, which working on them for the next month would definitely do that!

Another fan of the old man game. Give me mount any day of the week, lol. 

We’ve got some great sweeps and passes to go over this week in fundamentals. Make sure you show up ready to learn! 

CU@6AM!

I gained a bunch of weight and picking up weights and putting them down didn’t sound interesting to me especially since I have a physical job already. 

After some research I came in and signed up. 

Rickson, Akins, Heuter, Garcia…..I don’t think these guys will be traveling or teaching for too much longer. Their techniques are the old school, minimal movement stuff. I think Heuter would be a riot to sit around a campfire and bs with about coming up when he did. Marcelo is a GOAT and would be cool to hang around with. 

Any where that is cool enough to train outside and have a bonfire at night would be good with me. 

Loading people up for sweeps, it seems so backwards to logical thinking. Once that clicked…I really started looking to bait people into sweeps. 🧹

NO CHICKEN WINGS! 🐓

I’d agree, smaller movements and adjustments are better than large explosive movements. 

I kept getting triangled as well, I quickly learned that if you try to pull your head out you’ll get cauliflower ear. 🙉

If you’re getting stuck in closed guard this is definitely the week you don’t want to miss, fundamentals will have you escaping in no time!
