> sit-outs, reversals, stand ups, sprawls will all help… toe pressure is key to making you feel heavier… aka get off your knees… (undertones thread disclaimer), chest to chest without letting any other part of your body touch the ground minus the balls of your feet… as for a base, i thought that base was only a wrestling starting position? hand control is key when doing a sit out your elbows should be jammed against your ribs to prevent the opponent from gaining body/wrist control… in fact you should maintain wrist control and as you stand up straighten your arms to break free… atleast thats the idea for wrestling, I never did any other martial arts other than boxing… balance is something that comes with practice, I don’t know what to tell you there

:word: You have to really work on maintaining your center of gravity. Definatly practice sprawling! Hit the giund, and get right back up as fast as you can. Squat thrusts will aslo help develope the muscle you need. If I were you I would ask the sensai (sp) for advice. Other than that just do alot of pushups, jogging, lunges, stuff like that. It will build your endurance and help with your ballance.
