MMA and me; day 45

The days where we work on punch and kick combos in kickboxing don't happen often, but when they do, they are greatly appreciated, because they are pretty damn fun. We worked on throwing a lead 2, followed up by a body 3, then added a head 3 in the next set. The reasoning behind this is to set up a low 10, by working the body on one side, force them to cover it up by attacking it repeatedly, and then go for the exposed leg with a 2-body 3-low 10 combo. By really working the body with the 3, it makes them lean to that side, exposing the opposite leg, allowing you to really dig in that 10. I liked these combos, a whole lot!

Jiu jitsu was more of what we worked on Monday, the D'Arce choke, and a variation on the Vice. The difference in the Vice that we worked, was instead of trying to finish them from the arm over the back of the neck position, we allowed them to roll through, putting themselves in an inverted triangle. Pretty neat, even though since I don't have the longest arms in the world, I have a bit of trouble getting these chokes. It just means I have to work a little extra to get them.
