Sunday the 21st of February Fundamentals
1:Tonight we started with our partner having us in side control,with both their arms over our left hand side.With our forearms we pushed against their ribs,to push them down to our thighs.We then bumped up(Like the hipout),and turned onto our right side,and brought our right knee through,and placed it between their legs for a hook.We then straightened up,and brought our left foot in between their legs for the other hook.We then came up and gave them a hug.
2:Same setup as drill 1 but this time when we brought our knee through,we straightened up and circled the leg on the outside,and placed it behing their back.We then brought the left leg into play by bringing it around the other side of their back, to take full guard.
3:Here we had our feet in our partners hips,and had control of their sleeves with our hands(No thumbs in for the illegal grip).We had control of their upper body.Our partner would be putting pressure on us by pushing forward,but our legs would be keeping them at bay.When we felt like it we,turned our our left side,and dropped our left leg down by their knee.We then kicked our shin into their left armpit,and swept them over to mount.
4:Same start controls as drill 3, but this time our parnter would come up on their left knee.We took our right foot off thier hip,and placed it behind their left knee for the hook(Toes pointing up,and our knee pulling back towards us).Dropping our left foot down by their right knee,we pulled them over for the sweep to mount.
5:Here we had the sames grips and hooks as drill 3 but our partner stood up and put their left foot forward.We let go of our right grip,and grabbed their foot.With our left foot we pushed them back,and pulled their left foot towards us sitting them down on the butt,putting out right knee up ready to pass.
