Sweeps

2/19 - Valley

Registration opened for Pan Ams today. I'm giddy. On the inside.

Went over quite a few sweeps today. I'm going to try to incorporate one of the simplest into my rolls this week. It's just too easy. With a tight, high guard, bring their posture forward with your legs. As their momentum comes over your hips, bring L leg down and scissor their R leg as you pull up on their L knee with your R hand. Too easy.

Another variation is to pull them forward with your legs, and then grapevine their R leg with your L, get sleeve control on their R side and pull their L knee up with your R hand.

I would dearly love to hit one of the sweeps for a mount position in a tournament.

No rolling today.
