Sunday the 12th of April Fundamentals
1:Tonight our partner had taken our back,and they were on thier back and they went to choke us.We kept our jaw down tight to our chest,and had both our hands on the top of our head to precent them form getting their arms around us.We then picked a side and put pressure on the same side leg.With a series of little bumps, we then went sideways and pinned their leg with our butt.Onde we were sitting on the mat,we then turned towards them.
2:Same setup again as drill 1 but this time we grabbed their arm that was around our neck,and pulled it down,at the same time as pulling ourselves down to their feet.Once we were here we rolled into their guard.
3:Again same setup as drill 1 but our partner had their right leg wrapped around our lower stomach,and their left leg over their right ankle(as if triangling us).We leaned to the left hand side,and pushed down on their right knee creating pressure,until they tapped.
4:Here we had our partner in side control,and they had their forearms up defending their neck.We switched base and placed our left hand under their right arm,and grabbed their right side collar,and put out left thumb in the opposite collar.We then switched base and brought our left forearm over their neck for the choke.
5:Side control again,and our partner has the underhook,with their shoulders coming up off the ground.We captured this arm,and ran around to the opposite side,flattening them onto their back again by putting our elbow behind their ribs,and our chin on our hand,stopping them from rolling away
6:The Roll away drill:Here we had side control,and the underhook.We placed our elbow(underhook arm) in front of their ribs,and they would roll away.We then did the same move but placed our elbow behing their back(behind their ribs),and leant back.Our partner would try and escape.Geoff was explaining about having the elbow at their back to control them.
7:We had side control,and our partner was defending by having their forearms in tight for defense.We placed our forearm under right by parallel to their left bicep(catching underneath it).We then dropped our hips down,and walked around to North/South catching the arm.We then grabbed their left wrist with our right hand,and sat on their head for control.From here we stepped our left foot into the small of their back,and welded their left elbow to our chest,slowly rotating the arm to the left for the armbar.
7b:(Step over armbar variation)Same setup as dill 7 but when we secured their arm at North/South we sat down to the left of their head,swapped to our right arm with their left arm,grabbed their left leg with our left hand,and placed our right leg over their head.Welding their arm to our chest and slowly lying back for the armbar
