Grappling warm up: lots of quick rounds. Had the pleasure of Ptas and his calf compression but I responded in kind with a successful leg suppression.
Main part of the class was taken up with lots of detail around the arm extension.
Lee spent a great deal of time going through a detailed set up. The basic sequence of details is as follows:
Top centre control - chest arm trap - hug the other arm under the shoulder-lean and sit over - knees tight together, feet down and head side foot hooked under other ankle - lift arm and wrap - keep his arm on your chest and lie back to complete the submission.
From the sitting part of the arm extension we also looked at variation from this position: wrist extension (which looked very similar to a goose neck and as unpleasant as one), downward and upward shoulder rotation. Each of these will work as subs alone but also they will more than likely try to extend the arm to escape thus giving you the arm extension.
Sparring: Ground with strikes. Biggest learning tonight was with Chris who was landing heavy shots as I was typically on my back. I managed to manipulate the head to create stretched tension in his side which became a good place to land strikes. He was also landing a good variety which kept me very alert and busy.
