This morning I drilled what Coach taught me yesterday. Which was foots locks and the Kimura. I tried getting to the foot lock while passing the open guard, which is where I always struggle. I'm not very good at getting past it without getting wrapped up.
Coach taught me the foot lock from a 50/50 guard, but I saw how he would dive into position while the other guy was in open guard. So I tried emulating that this morning. If it works, great! If it doesn't, I am still drilling the mechanics of the foot lock, even if I am not diving in correctly.
I followed that up with some corrections he made to my application of the Kimura. I used to try to bring the arm up to the back of the head as soon as I wrapped it, but he told me it's better to bring it to the guys hip first. That allows me to control the arm more and gives him less power to struggle. Once the arm is near the hip, you raise it behind it and start bringing it up to the head.
That's it. I followed that up with a 20 minute meditation.
