Subject: Re: Dead Forum Author: Twister [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 10:02:13 12/19/06 Tue In reply to: Brandon Weaver 's message, "Dead Forum" on 15:00:09 12/18/06 Mon This forum is dead these days. For us we really focus on just the basics for new guys. The same OLD stuff that is in the gracie basic and intermediate series. Funny how this is the stuff you see being pulled off in MMA. The x-guard, the quarter guard are tournament moves and series. I have yet to see them used in MMA. [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]

I've recently started training a new group back in August and basically it's positional escapes 90% of the time and basic strategy of strike to submission. The first month is usually Takedowns, escape the mount, guard and side positions. --This is basically repetition drilling --During this phase I measure the reaction time between movements then begin to create chain movements --Once three or more Chains are created --We go into one sided drills (One opponent attacks the other defends) --Takedowns to Positional control will eventually dominate all grappling session so it becomes the cornerstone of our training for the months to follow. --With a heavy emphasis on remidal drills and coaching. going live is not the immediate goal, however, if a guy should come in with some background in MMA, BJJ, Wrestling or contact martial arts, we try to go to the point of his current understanding and progress from there. As far as Subs go....once a fighter begins to exhibit signs of control over his opponent, transition (control over himself), and the ability to escape.....we begin to work on the subs. Robbie Adams and I use to train under an instructor who fed us alot in terms of submissions and counters but when we started to fight we realized that all of our problems came from not know what posture to keep, how to escape certian postions and never recognizing the setup.....so once the fighters broke away and began to train one another we mainly focused on Takedowns / Positional dominance and escapes.
