Rat Guard?

Thursday, February 23, 2012

Things To Think About

  • How to defend against Luis' deep half guard? Everything I get on top, he grabs deep half and sweeps me.
  • How to maintain a better side control? Some people when I have in side control and shrimp out really easily. What do I need to improve my control over them? Better pressure? Control the head? Knee to butt?
  • I need to improve on my single leg takedowns. I usually can grab a single leg, but I can't seem to get them down. Maybe I need to improve my lower back muscle?

Open Guard Sweeps From Last Week

  1. Tripod Sweep
  2. Waiter Sweep
  3. Omoplata Sweep
* A key tip from Terence is to completely clear the legs when passing guard. Having your lower half left in can get you swept.
