tuesday:
bjj
double under pass: both arms in, open lapel, thumb in, pressure and pass

double under to back take, as you apply the pressure, grab the pants, left and start to take back, establish hooks and over/under grips. begin working chokes

if he weights his hips, and tightens up, just back away and pin one leg to the ground, get a knee through and pin that leg as you swing the other leg around behind and back to establish side control

Wednesday:
Yoga.
Good instructor there today. Very detailed. I guessed he was an engineer or a programmer. He is a programmer.

Thursday:
BJJ
working side control positions.
Practiced circling sides as the guy on bottom starts to shrimp out. Put head on side you're on, pin his top knee down, then swing legs around head and reestablish control on other side. You can either face his legs or his head for this, though the  legs seem easier.

You can also take full mount in this transition.

Guy on bottom's goal is to grip and make space to recompose. so guy on top must work to clear his knees and establish.

If guy get's 1/2 guard as you swing around, try to establish 1/2 mount, then take back, work chokes and arm locks.

Friday:
2 miles run

Saturday:
Gi: Simple sweeps and more of what we did thursday
No  Gi: good grappling day. Landed some good moves against people that used to tool me up. He took about 3 months off, and I caught him in a head and arm choke from guard.
