Today's class had me, Tony, Duy, Sam, and Chad.
I taught a sweep from butterfly guard (review), two entries to back takes from butterfly guard, and then an entry into the initial sweep based on an opponent's defense and also Kimura from another defense.
Rather than free rolling, I had positional/situational sparring. So, the first was guard passing vs. holding guard/sweeping/submitting the opponent. These were 1:30 rounds, with the same break, and then the guys switched. It became taxing since they switched partners twice, being guard passer and guard holder three times. I then had them do this for back mount (but only 1:00 on the clock). Finally, I finished off with side control escapes vs. holding position for 0:45, but only for one round.
The consensus is that the above is MUCH worse than free rolling.
Sam's Recap:
Recap- Prof, myself, Tony, Duy and Chad all present. Eddie was missed and LB, after discussion in an official kangaroo court, had his absence approved (but neither accepted nor praised).
Tony was so bored today with class that he went to sleep in the middle of it. I will leave that right there.
We practiced sweeps from butterfly, escapes from back mount, and chokes from back mount. NOTE: it was during this time period that Tony got bored and fell asleep).
We experienced positional sparring, with 14-16 short rounds rotating from partner to partner. The sparring was very taxing and we were all pretty whipped by the end of it.
We discussed places to get good Vietnamese food as well as Fat Boy Fried rice (local food truck).
Prof was not a participant today with the ukes he only taught and tortured us.
All and all another good day of BJJ.
