First sub grappling class

2 highlights,

1) I was able to pass guard into half guard (with the push down on knee method)

2) During a take down drill, the other guy grabbed my leg for single leg take down. Except I pummeled inside and get double underhooks, thus stuffing that takedown

Otherwise I was getting my ass kicked for about 2 hours.


Lowlight

I was inside another guy's guard and he went an arm bar on right arm. My right hand immediately grabbed my left bicep and my left hand grabbed my right bicep. Then I proceed to stack him. Instead of being patient and wiggling my right arm out, I was tired and gave up, so I got put on my back and arm fully extended with the accompanying tapout

(edit jun 22) Now that I think about it, the worse part of the day was when I was going for armbars. Not only was I not smooth and not using my hips correctly, I kept smashing my balls with the other guy's arm. Will try wearing a cup next time
