SATURDAY, 25 JULY 2015

Jason, John, Tony and I trained this morning. We warmed up by reviewing "basics" to the tune of doing 10 arm bars (both sides), ten cross-collar chokes from the guard, and ten arm bars from S-mount (both sides). The techniques of the day were submissions from top side control (an Americana and Ezequiel choke with the opponent's lapel). We then rolled for two rounds (one switch in partner). We then moved to standing techniques, focusing on the Russian to ankle pick series and then adding the fireman's carry to the options. I briefly touched on "judo" throws without the gi and even addressed a few items from self-defense/Muay Thai situations.
