Spazzy Blue Transformed

I don't know the guy's name because I'm terrible with names, but I think we got our Blues at about the same time. He's a little bigger and has about 20-30 lbs. on me and when we rolled a few weeks ago, he was very aggressive and muscled a lot and though I held him off, he eventually muscled a sub.

Not surprising that he did the same to the other Blues that I talked to. So I'm puzzled about what changed him because recently he's been going slower and trying to be more technical and I've been getting the upper hand on him and getting him top sub position but just not being able to finish him several times. I don't know if he's giving it to me or if he's really trying. And he's even giving me tips to finish him.

I don't know if he just figured it out to go slowly and with technique or if someone said something to him. Either way he's rolling much better and mindful of his rolling partners.

They say you either learn to roll technically or you quit. I'm glad he made the right choice.
