I'm awesome again.

So, despite feeling like a I sucked a big one at the alliance tournament I'm feelin good about life again.
Bench press is about to creep over 170lbs and jits is going good.

I've been continuing to work my leg hook stuff, going for the leg hook sweep and comboing it with the bicep slicer and the slicer sweep. I also have been working elevator sweeps from butterfly and half butterfly as a means to help strengthen my top game. I've been trying to pattern my game after Cobrinha's with the same kind of top pressure he uses and so far it's working well against guys my size.
I still have some trouble against hyper athletic people when I can't slow them down and make them play my game, but it's not as big of a problem as it used to be and I'm still getting better at dealing with it.
I hope to put some good technique stuff in here later tonight after class.
