Training Report: Double Leg takedown and 1/2 guard sweep

We did the double leg take down for the throw of the day.

We split the class into 2 groups (over 70 kg and under 70 kg) and did a shark tank for take down training.

Topic of the day was 1/2 sweeps.

We did 3 variations and roll for 30 minutes to conclude training.

Because we are getting near the competition on the 17 May, we will be only following the foundation program and will pause on our intermediate guard system.

The competitors are to start drilling techniques to prepare their game plan.
