Good workout today. Ken and Claire attended as well as the return of Robert. It was good to see him back and hear about his experience in Arizona. I rolled with everyone equally.
With my knee still not completely healed, I just accept that I'll be on my back, so my focus will continue to be butterfly for a while. It was a good exercise but I need a lot more work. I was able to move to x-guard a couple of times, but never really got a decent sweep.
Robert seemed to be much stronger and slicker as well. He improved his darce and north/south choke which is a great combination. I've recognized a new problem with my passing in no-gi, if I try the over-under pass I need to hide my front arm. Otherwise I get kimura'd.
I mostly stayed on the bottom for Claire to help her to improve her top game. I showed some things from mount to isolate the arm.
I mostly stayed on my back with Ken and he was able to pass my guard. I was so close at one point to getting x-guard but some how it backfired and he smashed me down into mount. I got pretty frustrated. All together I felt frustrated today. I may be hitting a plateau.
