Episode notes

I always like closed guard and no one wants to be in anyone's closed guard. So everybody when you try to close the guard they bring them in with in the middle. You can't get the knee and remove the leg out of the way. That's not possible. Well, maybe off balance them enough. No, okay. I mean you can try but like it's hard if you kind of balance the you'll sweep them. And then what do you tell you before? I think just motivate you. Hands will always did that fantastically well to motivate me like before in fight a match.
