Partner: Henry
I'm on a bachelor's week with my wife and kids out of town for their spring break. I really miss advanced classes.
Greg has been teaching deep half lately and tonight was waiter sweep. Henry sought me out to be his partner and said I might have some things to share.
A couple of small suggestions that make a difference are:
- During the entry protect against the cross face until your head can get to their hip.
- After that extending your arm to move under them instead of pulling them over you.
- During the sweep direct your pressure toward their knee
Rolling: Half Guard KOTM
Rolled With: Henry, Ben, Adam, Greg, John, David, Jerad
Rolling was tough, everyone was dangerous and had a chance to sweep or pass. I had quite a few close battles. Unfortunately I didn't go for deep half very much, I was looking more for the z-guard, knee shield twist sweep, and loop choke. I had some successes and some learning experiences.
I probably will keep most of the posts short this week as I need to get more rest than usual to do a couple classes a day. Oh and I swept Greg today, so there's that.
