Specific question
First of all i just want to say i won my second match on my first comp against a blue belt from decision/advantages and it was because of my wrestling based off what you said about head position and pressuring forward and attempts. So thanks for your help I’m finding it really valuable.
My question is, in my first match my opponent kept getting a strong grip on my left wrist from the top. My reaction was to lift my arm up and try to cut the corner to get around to the back, but I couldn’t get high enough around the corner to secure the position.
Looking back, I wondered whether that wrist grip could actually be an entry to a single leg: so If someone has a strong grip on the top of my wrist and I’m already lifting my arm up which was creating an opening to her leg, is it a legitimate setup to level change and shoot a single leg, using the shot itself to break the grip? Or is that unreliable/not sensible 😬 ? Just my game plan is to practice shooting for the first time for my next comp and I was wondering if that was a legit set up to practice?
