515lb Deadlift - Most in 2.5 Yrs

In November 2023 I hit my PR of 585 and since then I’ve hit 505 a couple times but never beyond that. Hadn’t had a real block of training with deadlifts in over a year due to popping out a rib multiple times doing jiu jitsu but the garage gym competition popped up and I said let’s just see what we can do. Probably had some more in the tank but I didn’t want to press my luck. Maybe I’ll actually get some good training in and push for a new PR.

Lately I’ve been playing around with using bottom half to attack submissions instead of going for sweeps, though some of the attacks turn into sweeps. Mostly been focusing on the kimura/kimura trap but mixing in looking for the arm saddle.

I’ve been having pretty good luck with the kimura and if I don’t get the arm behind the back, transitioning to an armbar or using it to sweep but I want to have some more attacking options when I don’t get that grip.

Who can I study to get some ideas of how I can attack submissions from bottom half? I’ve been looking at Craig’s stuff and Magid but wasn’t sure who else would be good to study up on.
