Move to undo a common situation where the opponent gets a hold on the spider guard by placing one foot on the biceps and another on the bow,

Continuing on with the Overhook x-guard series…we now look at a very basic sweep from this position. It might be basic but is sure is effective. Quick to execute against your opponent and opens up many submission opportunities. This is a taster and I think you will like it. Take a look. Try it on the mat. And let me know what you think.

Jitseasy is a new an innovative website for querying Brazilian Jiu Jitsu techniques based upon specific sets of criteria that is user defined. Jitseasy enables users to search for and watch BJJ videos on any subject including athlete’s name, submission type, sweeps, passing guard styles, throws & takedowns, counters, recanters, combinations and much much more!

Just because you’re going for a submission doesn’t mean that you need to let go of your opponent and potentially give up on a good position if the attack fails. In this video Rob Biernacki and I go over the steps to maintaining total control over your opponent all the way through a position, using the example of an S Mount Armbar from Mount and a Heel Hook Attack from the 411 position to illustrate the principles we’re talking about. I think you’ll like this one!

And if you’re a fan of this style of teaching and would like more then you owe it to yourself to check out my book on BJJ. It’s called ‘The Roadmap for BJJ’ and it’s available for free with zero obligation at http://www.grapplearts.com/book

Good luck with your training!

There are some variations and tricks and hacks that I discuss in this series. So watch closely. Give it a try on the mat. Let me know how it goes.

Ever had an Armbar but were unable to finish whether in a BJJ competition or just rolling?

Of course you have. . . we all have!

After training the other day 1 of my purple belts asked me about some tips on how to break a strong grip when finishing the Armbar.

So I figured I’d pull up the camera and show the details with you too!

In the video I identify some simple tactics you can use in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu when you run into a strong grip when finishing the Armbar submission.

1 which is always a good option is to attack the wrist with a wrist lock. Even if the wrist lock isn’t successful as a finish. The Armbar defense they were putting up typically falls apart and you can move in to the submission.

But assuming that you can’t use wrist locks or can’t get them to work either. One of my favorite Armbar grip breaks is to stuff the elbow into the armpit and then rock to the side.

Along with placing a lot of heavy weight on the persons face, which is uncomfortable, it also creates torque on the elblow and should and will force them to let go of the grip defense.

Watch the grip break video and if you’re experiencing this sort of problem in your Brazilian Jiujitsu training or competition. Give it a try!

I hope the video is helpful!

Neste vídeo, eu ensino uma maneira que gosto de transpor a guarda-X. Repare bem no detalhe na hora de cruzar o joelho, pois é a arma principal contra o guandeiro. Lembre-se também de manter uma das pegadas na lapela do guandeiro, para evitar que ele balance você com facilidade. Espero que vocês gostem.

Mais videos estão a caminho.
