Rolling backtakes have become part of modern jiu-jitsu, but they’re undeniably intimidating. Here’s the simplest one you can do: just learn to identify the trigger position (3/4 mount), make sure his hands are on one side of your body, and then roll on the other side. There are many details, tweaks, and variations that we’ll cover at some point in the future, but I just want to get you hitting this move so that you learn to believe in it. Let me know how this goes!

Today’s BJJ technique video is a continuation of the passing idea I shared last week about using half guard to slow down younger, faster or more athletic opponents.

In today’s video I answer a question about the Reverse Half Guard position as a question came up on the original video. I show some details on how to use the Reverse Half Guard position in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu, so you don’t get reverse or lose control of your opponent. But also, how to strategically place your weight on your opponent to apply maximum pressure.

This can be a great position whether you’re older and need to slow down the young whipper snappers in your class or if you just run into someone who has a really mobile guard.

If you’re trying to figure out ways to slow down training partners or opponents with guard passing then I hope this video is useful to you!

In today’s video I show a simple half guard top position I’ve been working on to slow things down with guard passing in BJJ, especially No Gi.

If you’ve watched any of my stuff in the last year or so you’ve probably heard me complain about being older. I’m not old by normal standards but by athletic standards I am. I also have some super tough young Purple, Brown and Black Belts that give me all I can handle.

So, to slow down the speed with the passing on top I’ve been focused on a specific position a lot. It’s very similar to a position I’ve used in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu for years and shown on the channel. But in the video, I show some specific adjustments I’ve been working in to stay tighter, add more pressure and slow my opponents down.
