Hey Fighters,

 

It's Friday and time for this week's Legends and there is a buncha stuff to cover today as we've got some big changes coming up.
 
1. There are only 6 more days to pick up ESP RAW 112 for the $10 off price (that goes for you International folks, as well). March 1st, the price goes up $10 bucks and we no longer pick up the shipping. (To order, or for details on what's on RAW 112 see the next article block).
 
2. Speaking of the ESP RAW DVD series, a few changes coming up starting in March.
 
First, we will leave The Wrestler's Guard behind for a bit as we cover some tactics and concepts that have been burning a hole in my brain for a while. We're aiming to tweak our game even more and up the intensity of your wrestling quotient and start widening that 2 heaping handfuls of go-to, must-have submissions--this new direction starts with the March volume lucky number 113.
 
3. More changes on the RAW series--Subscribers may now seek unlimited coaching points via video. Whatever volume of RAW you're on, if you've got a snag, send it my way via video link and we'll get you up to speed ASAP. We're striving to make this video coaching method as interactive as we can. There is no limit on how often you use the video coaching option of the RAW Subscription, once a week, everyday, whatever it takes to get your game solid.
 
4. Also, for RAW Subscribers only, you got a slick take on the RAW material or a nice speedy iteration, send it my way and we will occasionally feature the best of those in our video clips of the week.
 
5. We always try letting you know about our upcoming book release dates but sometimes the publisher knows way more than I do so we've added an Amazon Author's Page link to assist in keeping this info up to date.
 
6. Levi Wampler has started a good thing over at mmastrikingcoach.com We did an interview with him a while back, if you'd like to check it out here's the link.
 
7. We will be back in Radford, Virginia this year for the annual Karate college for more skinny on this see here
 
8. Whew! A bit too much with the info, right? One more thing, we've altered inTENS PREMIUM a bit, for info on that have a look at today's article.
 
Thanks everyone and have a great week!
Sincerely,

 

Mark Hatmaker

ESP RAW 112: The Wrestler's Guard Vol. 5: Transition to the Wizzer Stand-Up (+ The Leg Bar Quintet)
 
We pick up right where we left off on RAW 111 --this is a stand alone volume, but you would need to view preceding volumes to discover how we got off of our back into the position of advantage.
 
Here's a quick rundown of the drills included:
  • All the following will end in a trio of submissions.
  • The proper mechanics of using a standing wizzer to drill your opponent to the mat--it's all about the "twist "and zero to do with the "pull."
  • Your opponent have good base? Well, we can address that in a half-dozen ways...
  • We can use a subtle little wizzer hand assist pry to upset his hips.
  • Want a little more "Oomph" on your drop then you'll use the Outside Trip assist.
  • Not enough "Oomph"? You want his heels skyward as he drops on his noggin right into your Reverse Lever? Well, then the Power Mule is your ticket to ride.
  • Still want options? We hit two more with some hip tosses and standard mules.
  • Got an opponent who's canny to all your forward drop attacks? Well, the fearsome Single-Grape Fall-Back will fix that in a cinch as well as bang the hell out of the man who' has got to eat a double load of bodyweight as he hits the ground.
  • There are times when your opponent will limp arm out of your wizzer on the way down--well, just as we used the Head-Pop Triplet to attack the head we will run a trio of go-to Leg Locks (+ 2 esoteric ones). 1. ) The Tombstone Leg Bar 2.)  The Pit Bar 3.) The Single & Double-Over Leg Scissors 4). An Inside Crank for special circumstances & 5.)  An In-the-Saddle Inside Heel Hook for the sub junkie.
  • Back on the feet, if we assume our opponent has so much scramble in his wizzer defense you don't want to compromise your base by taking a foot off of the mat we make the drops more secure by using Single Scoops and Reverse Double Leg Takedowns.
  • In total 15 set-ups that lead into 2 Sets of Submission Triplet Plug-In Bad Libs to get your opponent off his feet, slammed to the mat, and hooked on mat contact.
(This DVD comes with a printed syllabus for inclusion in your training notebook).

 

ESP RAW 112: can be had this month for only $32 (S & H included) at the end of the month the price goes to $42 Domestic/$52 International.
