Gi with Ferret

Tonight's main objective was to work defense - open and loose guard. We didn't have any hard, fast rules I had to follow so it becomes just getting use to defending. One of the few rules that we covered was if your opponent gets an underhook on your leg, you have to push up on his elbow and get your foot back to his neck/shoulder. I spent 15 minutes defending my guard and then I went on the attack for 5 minutes, we did this for 50 minutes and spent the last 15 or 20 minutes rolling. It didn't take Ferret much to pass my guard when we went live. In fact, it didn't take Ferret too long to submit me tonight. More stuff to work on.
