MMA and me; day 83

Tired and cranky from sparring (but we'll get into that tomorrow) so for boxing, all I am going to say is go check out what we did for boxing on day 81. We worked the same combos, and they were awesome, I'm just too tired to write it all out right now.

Wrestling was about working leg rides into a leg whip, electric chair, or grape vine. First, for the leg ride, from back mount, slip a leg on either side, around to the groin and over their calf until it's on the mat. Lean over their back and get your hip flush to theirs as your elbows are on the far side. Next, lean back a bit, and then whip your free leg, parallel to the mat, across their back, and use the momentum to drive them over and onto their back, as you cover their neck and try for a choke. From the leg ride, lean over, and grab around their far side leg, and rock back until you're on your back, and then extend your leg that is intertwined with theirs, as you pull back the leg you have in your arms. This is called the electric chair, and it hurts quite a bit, trust me. Lastly, the grapevine. From the leg ride, as you lean across their body, reach your arm nearest their head under their far side arm, and get their arm behind your head. Rock back, extending your leg, and then cinching up a gable grip around their neck. From here, you can try for a neck crank, or ground and pound, or work to escape to side control or another similar advantageous position.

Okay, I'm beat, good night, see you in the morning.
