As you know by now, I a big believer in options. You have to know where you can go from where you are and the only way for that to happen is to play with chaining techniques together. It really doesn't matter what style of jiu-jitsu or martial art you do, there is only so much that they can teach you.
At some point you need to start taking what you have been taught and play with it outside the box. Try different positions or a a follow up to a failed technique. We need to do this on the mat because sometimes things seem good on paper but don't work in the application. So get out there play with what you know, open your mind and expand your knowledge.
So... where can we go if our osotogari (major outer reaping) throw doesn't work. I mean you step in to kick their leg out and.... thud their leg don't move. Well S@*t! Where do you go from there?
The videos below will give you a few options but remember these are only a small amount of the possible responses. Have a look what would YOU do as a follow up?
