MMA and me; day 124

An awesome day of boxing and a whole new set of combos to cover so let's go! We started with the straight-hook-straight that we use for our counter shots, and went into a roll, followed by a counter, then a roll counter. Next we added the slip stops we worked on last week, but in the opposite order. After the previous counter, we slipped a jab while throwing a stopping jab of our own, then slipped a straight and threw a stopping straight, followed by a roll counter, rear body hook catch, lead body hook catch. The following stack added a roll, straight hook, roll, hook straight, then the catch four series. All in all, the combo looked like this;
2-3-2-roll-2-3-2-catch-2-3-2- slip/stop 1- slip/stop 2-roll-2-3-2-catch body 4-
catch body 3-6-2-3-2-roll-2-3-roll-3-2-catch-2-3-2-body 3 catch-2-3-2-catch-2-3-2-high 2 catch-2-3-2.
WHEW! That's a total of 34 punches! To say we were sweaty would be an understatement. Now it was time for jiu jitsu.

We went back to working the S-mount and the arm bar, but with some new flows. From S-mount, under hook the far arm with your opposite side arm, and use your free arm to post on the mat, and ratchet your hips across their body to secure the far side arm bar, if they push your leg off of their face, reach under their head with your arm on that side and lift them up, while taking their back, getting a seat bet grip. From there go for an arm bar on the other side, and from the arm bar you can go back to taking their back, or slide back to S-mount. Always make sure you are maintaining constant pressure, and not letting them get space to maneuver. This flow was awesome, and between both classes I felt like I'm really starting to get a lot of the basic concepts down. Big thanks to Coach Troy and Coach Wise for helping me out, and for turning a cruddy day into an awesome one. Thanks to everyone else out there who helped cheer me up, you are all amazing!
