Old school muscle sweep + transition to knee bar.
.
This is a classic old school sweep when the opponent is standing in your closed guard.
note that this is one of the ONLY sweeps performed with closed legs. most of the “closed guard sweeps” that you’ll see are just sweeps that you need to open the guard to be able to execute them. This is one of the only few true closed guard sweeps. I chose the variation where I keep my legs closed the whole time, the old school variation. You can open the legs upon impact and you won’t suffer from the opponent falling on your legs and making it hard for you to mount. BUT you leave more space and escape opportunities from him. Even risk heel hook entries.
When I am not able to go for the first sweep because his tries to push my knees and is able to base on his far leg, I can try to go for the knee bar. It is advanced but very surprising.
Give it a try!
