https://youtu.be/p_jZhpaOKvw Todd Ties are pretty good. At :13 you had a good grip with the left hand and the arm drag with your right hand was there. Just FYI. Guard passing is good but connect your right knee to the hip sooner. Lapel control is good. Arm ride is good, nice choice. At 1:28 you…
https://youtu.be/EHVnGcdLOEM You are both swinging the hands too wildly. Ryan Norris You were standing up a little high swinging too much which is why he got in to the legs. It was an excellent recovery into the double leg off his failed shot. 2 points. You got 3 points on the guard pass also. That…
https://youtu.be/YOwLIFIzOWo Scott The main thing on your stance/ takedowns I see is you let your feet get too far forward at times, in particular when reaching for the collar. Just watch that b/c as you move up in divisions the people will set you up on that. The forced takedown when he was on his…
https://youtu.be/qX0Ot0XYsvE Ethan You had a good defensive stance coming out. At :12 you were over the head. All you have to do is keep walking back and dragging them down to the mat then circle to the back. Make sure you keep your feet back; dont drag them back with your arms and bring them…
Overall this was a great match. The things in this match are applicable to all heavy weights; please pay attention to details. Dont use 2 hands to break the ties; this leaves you off balance and with no ability to defend any incoming takedown. For takedown work its not necessary to break the ties like…
BryonInitially you are swinging the hands to wide and the person will get inside. Spencer had an inside grip for a sec and you did good recovering. On shorter people you don’t want your head under theirs unless you are using it for pressure on their chin. In this case you were too bent over…
AnthonyGood work circling for the inside ties. Watch letting your feet come too far forward. I dont like the drop step from that far out but we have fixed this with the under hook takedown I’ve given you. At :15 I would have stood back up and kept the under hooks and gone for the take down. You…
ToddYour initial takedown which was more or less a high crotch entry was good. Lifting the elbow was good but you needed more of a head snap initially so he postures up, then lift the elbow and you needed to cut more to the angle. Going to the arm drag off this was a good call. …
ToddYou need the inside ties with the right hand. Recovering the arm drag was good.At about :15 you need to take the left hand and push on the head, pushing it to the mat. It was good pushing forward. At :20 walk the right knee to the right to help flatten him. At :40 you had the…
AnthonyYou need the inside ties before going for a takedown. The second attempt was better. Recovering to half guard was ok. You did good crunching up into him, just try to connect the head to the chest. You did good sitting up on the elbow. At about 1:08 was your mistake, you had the under hook the…
