Jiu Jitsu Training 9/4/18 - Pulling Guard

9/5/2018

Yesterday's lunch Jiu Jitsu training was at the Rodrigo Freitas BJJ gym in Hawthorne, CA. First lesson of the day was pulling guard from stand up. Then, we worked on a transition from there to an open guard sweep. After doing reps, I got to roll for 4 rounds of live drilling from both the open and close guard for both the offensive side and defensive side.

I was able to get some some sweeps, but I retracted from open guard to half guard. I was able to pass a couple of times from both the open and full guard. It was not easy and at times, I gave up some positions to get the pass like giving up a triangle or arm bar, but it all worked out on working on my escaping skills.

I'm less than 3 weeks out from the Jiu Jitsu World League tournament. I feel okay so far, but I'm having a hard time balancing both the powerlifting and Jiu Jitsu training. I felt stiff coming to class and I missed the warm ups, but I have been stretching everyday to work on my flexibility.
