I got my daily Apollo choke and an arm triangle...I'm a theme choker!
Managed to get one arm bar on the biggest guy in class. Took everything I had. He's a beast.
That's quite the feat Tori!
I haven't rolled today, but I did yesterday.
Tested the Brent Alvarez kneebar twice, got it from halfguard first on the left side, then on the right side! :)
For some reason my whip ups didn't work. I managed to go to meat hook instead, (for the first time ever, first time I've tried), but time ran out before I could sinch in the triangle. Meat hook felt gooood tho! :)
but overall I'm dissapointed in my whip's.. They are usally good. So I went home depressed. :'(
Maybe I'm not stretching their foot out enough. I also find that if I do stretch the foot out, it's harder to whip. I guess they put their weight on it.
Maybe I should gable grip and pull them on top of me at the same time, maybe that's the key?
I'm so knew to this game.. :'( Being a white belch is hard sometimes.
Darce, arm triangle, triangle getting my choke on
What?! crazy, I mean im not too bad at grappling and im 154-156 right now. I can do over 200 body weight squats, I can curl 50lbs clean one hand multiple times, I can do over 20 pull-ups, 70 push-ups (more probably if i had to) I can do push-ups on only my pointer fingers and thumbs. Still to sub (especially trad ones that every can recognize happening like an armbar) guys over 185lbs that have any basics down is really damn hard.Quote:

ya know, as ive been sitting on the porch smokin' and thinking about it, I'v actually subed quite a lot of big dudes but they were almost all (i'd say except 3) newbies, but one said he was a wrestler, brick shithouse, smothered in muscles and it was my first time rolling with a guy that had no shirt which was weird, and i got him with a north-south! I didn't even really know how to do a north-south at the time.
I didn't sub anyone yesterday. :(
I did manage to mess up my coach's hair pretty well though, which I take as a W.
Yesterday I got a Kimura from reverse spiderweb, a Danaher Kimura and a North south choke.
Nice work subbing a big guy Tori.
Man I was all over the place today. I got a 2 triangles, an arm triangle, straight ankle lock, marcellotine, annnnnddd MY VERY FIRST TWISTER! Almost had a few gogo's and a Peruvian #10P4L. #jetlife
Looks like Tori you got mad skills...I have yet to roll with a girl that I had to be awake for. Not because they don't have skill...they do! I'm 185 and they are around 120 in a gi and that's asking a lot. I do poorly against guys over 230.
I managed to get collar choked a few times..does that count?
For the other guy lol
