Well, it's going up a bit late, but I have the day off, and I can do as I please! Anyways, we continued to work punching combinations ending in leg kicks in kickboxing. This time, however, we worked the inside 9 as a combo finisher, instead of the outside 10. Using the 1-2-9, and 2-3-2-9 felt much better than the combos ending in 10s, and much more fluid. I'm starting to feel more comfortable leaning over the outside of my leg when I throw the kick, and staying more balanced throughout the entire combo as well.
Grappling was all about jiu jitsu for MMA, and it was a good way to go over some stuff we had covered before, but I'm still not too sharp at yet. First up was rolling out of full guard to our feet, which was much more difficult than our coaches made it look. After that, we did sweeps from half guard on the bottom. We worked escaping out the back door to back mount, reversing to side control if they try a whizzer, then did some free grappling for the last 15 minutes or so. My partner Nate and I have rolled before, and I actually managed to keep him from tapping me, though I didn't get any submissions on him. I nearly had an inverted triangle on him, but couldn't lock it up. Next time......
