Jiu-Jitsu July 8th, 2025 Prep
Last night, we learned Arm Drag to Takedown + a Kimura from the takedown position. I need to get better at takedowns, as I'm still a bit timid when it comes to those. I had some good rolls, but I still haven't actually gotten to string together any submissions yet. I'm going to need to work on some combinations. I would like to set up the Flash Armbar, but that also requires great positioning. In order to set up the flash armbar yesterday, I attempted to get people into my guard, but they ended up fighting out of it. I'll continue to drill this flash armbar. It seems like something that works when there is a vulnerability in their positioning. I think taking notes from Jiu-Jitsu University will also help. This is the video for the Arm Bar to Takedown: This is the video for the kimura from the takedown. Tonight, apart from what john shows us, I am going to attempt to start from standing, and here is my sequence: - Arm Drag to Take down, then Kimura from takedown If that doesn't work, then retain upper position Somehow get them into my guard from guard, attempt triangle choke If that fails, set up flash armbar.
