Scott Groves - been training almost 6 years. Brown Belt @ 10th Planet with Nick & Spencer. Goal #1 - Get down to 199.9 lbs and stay there. At 47 years old I just feel better, a little faster, and cardio is better if I'm under 200. I'm at 215 right now. Got back to tracking my food and steps a few days ago. Need to do that daily and weight falls off! Goal #2 - Compete in the masters division of either ADCC or IBJJF next year. Younger guys with unlimited cardio are going to get the best of me at a competitive level - but against other older guys I can hold my own :-) Need to compete at Brown Belt (which I haven't yet). Goal #3 - Support Nick & Spence in building this community and offer some words of wisdom to the group as the old man (who has a bit more experience than you kids who heal much faster) :-)

Got a super fight W. Worked with my brother on these drills. Handfought, got a sweep takedown, took him to mount and saw an arm bar. Gonna keep studying and compete more!! Thank you guys

Split the legs. Isolate the heel. Finish. This backstep heel hook is all about divide and conquer. https://youtu.be/ZlMj0XYMFg0
