Here's to the end of a great off-season with the best girls a daddy could ask for. Its the honor of my life to father these girls, to see them follow my footsteps in wrestling, to get to coach them on the mat and in life. I love building our Rugged Cross culture with them.

Life moves so fast, its going to be these moments that we recall fondly. Live in the moment, be present, do life with your family.

The Mental Edge:
There are times in life when you are the "tired old soldier" and you've got to play it smart. You can't line up for every match exactly the same, there needs to be some strategy.

Here is a match for 3rd place where I'm objectively facing a superior force. A younger, bigger, stronger opponent. He is also a wrestler.

Knowing how tired I was at this point in the day, I knew I couldn't flurry my way into an offense like previous matches. He could meet and exceed my tempo. I needed to wear him down to my level.

We hand faught like dogs for over 4 mins. I had a few shot attempts to make the opponent honest, and defended his relentless attacks. I could tell at 45 sec to go, it was time to turn it on.

Again, the underhook series was used on the day. I opened him up with very heavy hands to the head to a single leg. I almost left my head outside, notice I backed my hips out on the ground as he pulled gaurd. Decent adjustment, almost dangerous.

The MENTAL EDGE takeaway here was I needed to drag him to my level of exhaustion and equal the playing field. I was able to stay steady on my feet and won this like a good ole wrestling match. All credit to this young man for being an absolute brawler on the mat.

OUCH! This was a bad one for me. I would like to build credibility with you all, this account is not all about winning and showing you success. What I have found with the Wrestling to Grappling crossover, there are some bad habits that can linger. It happens so fast as you can see here, and the worst part was I recall knowing that armbar was imminent.

🗣 Wrestlers who aspire to BJJ, you need to develop a habit of short arm offense from your mount and especially the top guard. My coach did all he could to prepare me for this, and yet when under stress, we resort to what we know.

🚨 Keep those arms tight!! Stay strong in your top position, don't get lazy!!

Technique Talk:
So I was on an underhook terror this Grappling event. Must have felt very safe to set up TDs as opposed to open space. Anyway, this finish would be a very safe and standard near side, head inside single leg.

The wrestler sets this one up by pulling with the underhook same side. Feet get stepping toward the wrestler, lower level, throw the shoulder over yours, and shoot.

Preparation has been our foundation for the past few months. Our focus now shifts to competition season.

We have worked on a philosophy of "loving wrestling" more than the desire to win every match. As a team, we always say the most important point in a match is the "next point you need to score".

Isn't that a picture for our life's journey? It would be nearly impossible to win at everything [in life]. We ought to embrace the process of growing and learning. Winning will come, and failure isn't final.

Looking forward to these next few weeks of competition!

“I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.”
— Philippians 4:13
