[bob]

lol yeah puddles suck..........it was silly really....i had my gi alwraped up and tied in a ball with my belt. then the belt(which i was carrying it by) came loose and into the puddel went my gi

[bob]

worked sweeps for the most part of class then free rolled with a purple belt. managed to get 2 good sweeps on him ...which is good seeing as normaly the whole graple is me trying to keep and get back my guard and defend my ass off.........always feel good after rolling with this guy...glad its over usually.

[bob]

no rules night tonight. worked on strikes form the clinch and then free fought usinig slaps. did well. feel more comfortable with defending strikes form my guard. learnt a cool new sweep with like 5 or 6 veriations.....think it may take some time to get my head around it all

[bob]

[bob]

right sunday nights training was me rolling with my insttructor all class...........i always leern heaps when we grapple..i also tap heaps.......


learnt a few good escapes of armbars....

[bob]

yesterday was a ggood day of training...
rolled with a guy similar weiight....old guy .....but hes a feisty ****er...tapped him wiith three armbars and a triangle in about 4 mins all up...thehn we rolled again and all he didi was wait for me to set up armbar triangle or omaplata, from guard and then he'd posture like there was no tomorrow. and i wanted to prove a point and finish him from guard so that is how it went for about 10 mins.me trying sumthing and him posturing..then i got ****en tired of it and uused my sweep game, swept passed then got a step over arm bar.


after that i rolled with my instructor...****en wild...kept flowing really well and i learnt alot as per usual.



then rolled with a blue belt..it was a battle, i was hammerd by now but i never turn a grapple down.....pulled gaurd went for sweeps end ed up in half gaurd . worked half gaurd sweep...got full gaurd he passed around i came to my kneesthen sat back to gaurd...got a tringle but he was postureing hard so it wasnt locked down properly....sweeped him to mounted triangle, lost triangle and went to full mount....he put my back in his guardand played a closed guard game for a while .alomost armbarred me...then ii passed around he came to his knees my sprawl wasnt quick enough.....then he tried to pass knee throughs and i managed to get a heel hook.


left feeling really good...one of those trainings sessions that you wish you could emulate every time you trained
