Today most of the players are at Finnish open and one is at Abu Dhabi:-) Concrats for the bronze metal,Venla in Abu Dhabi. And Tommi for winning at Finnish Opens.
I've been reading a book about martial arts - and reason for judo's success was judokan's did not getting insured.(so often than jiujitsukan's
1) So you get better, if you do not get insured. It will make it possible to practise. My shoulder has prevented full speed training for 3 months!
2) Practise 80% of your time the 20% techniques that you will use in competition and 20% of your time the techniques that you want to learn or test. You need just very few compinations to be successful - but techniques have to be executed and set up very well. So what are my favorite submission techniques?
I get an americana most often - well, nothing else actually. Most successful position for americana for me is half guard - not full mount as you would think? I catch a wrist and bring it to other hand that is hooking around neck. I take a figure four and let opponents head slip. Ameracana is ready.
I would need a triangle? Triangle should be possible from anywhere you can "lasso" with your legs an arm and a neck?
And an armbar? - push your groins to opponents armpit/shoulder?
Maybe a choke from collar? Something to disturb opponents game - something they just have to take in consideration.
Reflections after BJJ class:
We had half guard from bottom and how to fight back an under hook. After that we rolled starting from lost under hook half guard. 6 minutes rounds and 1 minute recovery. I tryed to "roll with the punches".. like not resisting but letting my opponent roll me and waiting for an opporturnity. No kuzushi, but not so bad static pressure either. I did get one americana and one armbar. Looks like armbar is easier for me than a triagle. And I got a black eye, too. Only a small one.
Here are some ways to fight for underhook:
