What is the block and drive or lift and rotate concept?

When sweeping or taking someone down, you are either blocking a post and driving their body over it, or lifting them up and rotating them. It is really that simple conceptually, though not always easy to execute. Combinations of both are possible too. When you frame sweeps and takedowns this way, the objective becomes much more clear.
