Theme & Techniques: Scissor Sweep, Cross Collar Choke, Farside Armbar, Breaking Armbar Grip
Had an easy morning. My fingers were a little sore from rolling with Mike the night before, so I may consider taping them at the tournament. I worked with Bearded Josh all morning. Didn't have any huge epiphanies today, but the cross collar choke felt tighter than usual. I could tell Josh was a little frustrated with the choke. There is something different about collar chokes than other submissions. It seems like it takes some time to understand them and then they eventually click. I worked on the stutter step that Greg showed me the other day for the farside armbar and that's getting a little better so my foot doesn't end up in the armpit anymore.
Josh had to take off for work and Greg and I talked a little more. He assured me that I should be fine in the tournament, which this and class last night helped. As I haven't felt as nervous today as I did yesterday. We didn't roll, but we did discuss some politics while cleaning the mats up.
