IMPORTANT THINGS TO REMEMBER
(Not mentioned on the DVD)
**Always grapple with combinations. Your submission attempts should always link into another one. Use your head as a 3rd arm.
**When grappling always simulate striking (knees, elbows, headbutts, etc). In a real situation someone most likely isn’t going to top
mount you and then look for a submission, they will want to knock you out with strikes! Train for the real thing.
**Think a few moves ahead... but be willing to adapt to your opponent’s energy. Don’t have a predetermined submission planned…
take what you’re given. FLOW… be smoooth.
**In training tap quick and easy…DON’T HAVE AN EGO!! That’s how people get hurt. If someone won’t tap when they should, let
them go and tell them about it. There’s no shame in tapping… let yourself get tapped often by those of lesser skill that yourself.
**When you feel yourself get frustrated, relax. Remind yourself that this, like anything else, takes time and proper training. The
“secret” to getting better is smart, hard work and plenty of it. Is that really a secret? ;-)
