builuing youi own style. As you tiain anu you get bettei it staits to become
impoitant to builu youi own style anu uo things that woik foi Y00 anu not just
eveiyone else. That is what makes giappling a tiue maitial "ait". 0nce you builu
youi own style anu get goou at the things that woik foi you then you'll tiuly stait to

1. G42'4 <.4" G4236.37 - When you stait this sheet you shoulu stait fiom the
"Stanuing" section in the miuule anu then woik youi way aiounu the game
plan sheet fiom theie. The ieason foi this is because all matches stait fiom
the feet. You shoulu have a stanuing game plan REuARBLESS if you aie goou
at takeuowns oi not. You can put a takeuown you like oi aie staiting to like,
uiffeient ways to pull guaiu, etc.

2. H&./6 9')8 G4236.37 - Next once you have youi list of things you like to uo
fiom the "All Natches Stait fiom Stanuing" section then builu off of each
listeu item in that section. Foi example one thing you have in the stanuing
section might be to "jump closeu guaiu" then stait filling in the "I Bave
Closeu uuaiu" section because that's wheie you'll enu up if you jump to the
closeu guaiu. Then the seconu item you have in the stanuing section might
be "uouble leg takeuown" then go to the "In 0pponent's Closeu uuaiu"
section anu list youi items theie, as you might enu up in theii closeu guaiu.
You can also possibly go to the "I Bave Balf uuaiu 0n Top" section oi even
the "I'm 0n Top" as those aie possible aieas you might enu up in off of a
uouble leg takeuown. Next might be "pull open guaiu" then you woulu go anu
fill in the "I have 0pen uuaiu" section, anu so on. TBE P0RP0SE 0F Y00

stemmeu off of the "All Natches Stait Fiom Stanuing" section then go to one
of the othei filleu in sections, look at it anu see what section may stem off of
an item on the list. Foi example if you have the "I Bave Closeu uuaiu" section
filleu in anu one of the items is in that section is "scissoi sweep" then the
section you may want to fill in next woulu be the "I Bave Nount" section
because with that sweep you'll piobably enu up theie. TBE P0RP0SE 0F

is so you pievent fiom wiiting a huge list in each section of pietty much
nonsense. You uon't want things you uon't even tiy oi that look cool but
you've nevei even testeu in piactice to see if they woulu ieally woik oi not.
Bon't woiiy if you can only think of 1 thing to put in a section oi if you can't
even think of anything. If that is the case then you know you aie weak in that
aiea anu you neeu to focus on that aiea in piactice to finu what woiks foi you
anu then builu that aiea up only with options you aie staiting to feel is
RIuBT F0R Y00. B0N'T }0ST ABB S0NETBINu T0 FILL TBE SPACE.
Anothei ieason you uon't want to uo that is because even if you have just 1
thing listeu in a section you want to finu something that may complement
that one thing so then you can builu off of it anu then builu a system.

S. A)& S23 ?66 G0*4#8* Y This list uoesn't neeu to be wiitten in complete
uetail because you shoulu be able to know what it is you wiote uown being
that it's something you feel goou with oi see potential in piactice with. Now
lets say foi example theie is a few veiy closely linkeu things that you know
you like to uo anu aie goou at fiom a paiticulai position such as ueep half
guaiu foi example. You can wiite uown something like "Beep Balf uuaiu
Tiiple Thieat" on the list insteau of wiiting uown each sepaiate technique.

6. A)& P)3Q4 E##6 !) I.// V3 ?// G(21#* Y In ielation to "Step 4" of this foim,
you uon't have to fill in all of the spaces just because theie aie spaces theie.
You want to tiy anu have at least 2 to S options in each section as a geneial
iule. Bowevei make suie you uon't foice it by putting just anything in those
list spaces that you aien't even familiai with. Reau Step 4.

7. N2=# 2 G#(2'24# X28# %/23 9)' R21" G40/# Y If you tiain No-ui giappling
make a game plan foi that style. If you tiain ui giappling then make a game
plan foi that style. Even if you tiain both then make a game plan foi each
one. I myself like to keep both my ui anu No-ui styles similai howevei theie

is usually always something that is uiffeient pei style. You want that to be
ieflecteu in each game plan.

8. Z##( V4 G.8(/# Y Take notice that with the example game plan that is on the
last page that theie is no huge uesciiptions anu they lists aie filleu with
simple uesciiptions. }ust like youi tiaining you uon't want to make youi
leaining haiuei then it neeus to be. Since you aie the one wiiting uown these
sections (possibly with help fiom youi coach) anu these things in the lists aie
aspects you like anu aie woiking to incoipoiate you'll iemembei them bettei
iegaiuless of theii simplifieu uesciiptions.

9. I/)< !"#8 !)7#4"#' Y Cieate lines to link each section togethei
accoiuingly. I goou iuea is to use coloieu pencils to make things easiei to
ieau. Then stuuy how each section flows togethei.

1u. ?S!C?TTA %D?S!VSR !UR X?NR%T?EJ - Bon't just uo all of this woik anu
not use it. I woulu say this is the #1 thing that happens. Biill these situations
ovei anu ovei again. Bieak youi game plan uown in sections anu then uiill
them. As you get useu to each section it will all come togethei.
[ Talk to youi coach - let youi coach look at it anu explain it to
himhei. Analyze it with youi coach.
[ Piactice it aftei class
[ uo thiough the flow when you aie uiilling as it is seen in youi
game plan that is wiitten out

11. G0*4#8.\# - The goal it to cieate a giappling system foi youiself. 0ne that
woiks foi you ovei anu ovei again. 0nce you feel veiy goou with this system
then builu off of it. Auu to each section but you can bieak it uown moie such
as bieaking uown each inuiviuual list item unuei each section. You woulu
wiite uown answeis to each obstacle you may encountei with each
inuiviuual list in each section.

Think of youi funuamentals as the tiunk of a tiee anu youi game plan
sections as bianches that aie giowing fiom the tiee anu little bianches
giowing fiom each biggei bianch anu so on.

12. D#:.*.4 - Revisit youi game plan constantly. While you'ie not going to
completely change youi game theie is always aujustments to be maue. The
people who aie gieat at giappling have options anu movements they've useu
since they weie beginneis oi white belt oi blue belts, anu they aie still
successful at them because they nevei stoppeu uoing them anu cieateu
SYSTENS aiounu them by auuing aujustments.
