Still high turnout at the gym, not as high as yesterday, but still!
I felt elated last night because for the first time I pulled off a move we trained in sparring, immediately after we trained it! Am I finally leaving the realms of spaz? Probably not!
We warmed up with take-downs and trained more back moves, chokes to be specific.
The central task was to get their hands out of the way.
The move I pulled off was grabbing their lapel, scooting out from behind them, leg over their mid section, grabbing their knee and pulling like a bow with your elbow tucked down.
Basically two moves:
When you're on the back and trying to trap their arm. Putting your arm over theirs, you go for the lapel choke.
Putting your arm under theirs, you pull it back, trap it in your lat and preform an armbar.
Also an escape from the lapel choke is to put your head through the hole their arm created, but you'll likely get arm barred.
