Grace Gundrum is one of the fastest rising stars in grappling and for good reason: she’s a stone cold technician. This is one of the coolest transitions you’re ever gonna see and she hit it in a money tournament, Finishers 10. Finishers is an EBI rules tournament.

I started calling this move the Ginger Snap (I’m sure there are other names for it, call it whatever you want) after one of my Blue Belts (Chad Allen, at 10th Planet Jiu Jitsu in Decatur, Alabama) kept hitting it in competition. I don’t know what Grace calls it, but it’s one of the weirdest moves in all of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. It’s even weird for us 10th Planet folk, and that’s saying something. It basically works like a lockdown on the arms.

Anyway, I’ve included some footage of Chad hitting it in competition several times.

I hope you guys dig these bmac breakdowns. I like doing them and it’s also cool to put some shine on some of our coolest competitor on the no gi BJJ scene, especially the Sub Only scene.

Join us at 10th Planet Jiu Jitsu Decatur on Tuesday and Thursday nights. Brandon Mccaghren (10th Planet Jiu Jitsu Black Belt under Eddie Bravo) rolls with his beginner students during these sessions and it’s often fun and informative to watch, especially for those of you who may be newer to bjj, particularly no gi or 10th Planet.

Brandon will also be around to answer questions after rolling, so stay and hang. Get involved in the chat!

Many people believe that the mount is dead for no gi. I couldn’t possibly disagree more! In my opinion, this is the strongest position in no gi. But because many practitioners are so accustomed to the attacks that are reliant on the gi, they fall apart when the get to no gi.

Or, best case scenario they still have a solid arm triangle, but very little else.

Fear no more! Here are 3 no gi siubmissions from Mount, none of which are the Arm Triangle (kata gatame or side choke).

1. Guillotine
2. Punch Choke or Ezekiel Choke
3. Mounted Triangle Choke

CJJ Worlds is approaching quickly, and on November 23 we will crown a new Middleweight Champion!

As we prepare for the big event on UFC Fight Pass, let’s take a look at one of the favorites to push through his side of the bracket, Dan Martinez.

In this video, Brandon Mccaghren breaks down and analyzes his beautiful Heel Hook entry finish against Sergio Rios at EBI 17. This was an opening round bout in a 16 man Combat Jiu Jitsu bracket.

Martinez is a Black Belt from the Tampa, Florida area and he went all the way to the Semi Finals at EBI 17. We expect another big performance from him on November 23 in Monterrey, Mexico exclusively on UFC Fight Pass!

In this week’s episode, we get a look into the real bmac and discover that he is a lifelong spazz. Everyone talks about Brandon’s ADD and how he can never pay attention for more than 5 minutes. Which leads us to Kitchen Moves. It’s hard to explain. You just need to see
brandon mc in all his Karate Action glory to really understand.

The real meat of episode 15, though, is brandon giving his commentary over the top of a few rounds of rolling with his students.

We hope you guys enjoy. Thought this was one of the funniest episodes of not the bmac show to date!

In this week’s episode of “not the bmac show,” we got inspired by the Ellen Degeneres show. My wife, Lindsey, is obsessed with Ellen. On this show, they play a game called Taste Buds.

I was trying to think of something fun we could do with the students here at 10th Planet Jiu Jitsu Decatur; just something silly and funny that could boost the atmosphere at our academy even further. We have the best Jiu Jitsu school in the world, and I love giving all of you guys a look inside our family.

So basically the way this works is I say, “Who wants to play a game to win free tuition?” We took a couple of the volunteers and basically made them eat a bunch of gross food and try to guess what it is. It was a lot of fun. I hope yall get a laugh out of this!

When I first started learning the Butterfly Guard, I used to make myself so tired! I was using my legs all wrong and I didn’t understand the idea of off-balancing (Kuzushi) at all. As I gained more experience and began to study the games of BJJ champions such as Marcelo Garcia, Braulio Estima and Jean Jacques Machado, the beauty and efficiency of the position started to come to me.

In this video, I break down a really simple, basic Butterfly Sweep. This technique is fundamental to understanding how the Butterfly Hooks are supposed to be applied in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.

In the 10th Planet Jiu Jitsu system, the Butterfly Guard can often look quite different. Besides there being no gi to grab, there’s also the idea of lineage at play. Our Butterfly Guard is generally passed down to Eddie Bravo from Jean Jacques Machado, one of the great Butterfly players in Jiu Jitsu history. As such, there’s a huge emphasis on overhooks and using the body to control the opponent rather than gi grips.

Beyond that, the Butterfly Guard is the perfect launching pad for all of the best submissions from Rubber Guard. My favorites from here include the Flying Kung Fu to Go Go Clinch, and the standard Gogoplata. Triangle Choke is always around the corner, too.

Usually when I’m in LA for a traincation, I like to slide over to 10th Planet West LA and train with Einstein during the day. We did that every day, but what we didn’t count on was showing up for strength and conditioning. It worked out like a perfect setup, as if Einstein and I had walked them into an ultra grueling workout without their knowledge, but it turns out we just didn’t know it was S&C day ? just keep your eyes on my man Brett. So good!

Here’s what to look for in this episode of
not the bmac show :

– Failed Uber Driver humor
– AirBnB tour
– I hate mayo
– Kurt tries to kill brandon with Mayonnaise
– Did I mention that mayo is disgusting?
– PTSD support animals; diverging opinions
– 10th Planet HQ
– Lila Smadja Cruz finds out the truth about my elbow injury
– Rubber Guard assassin Jeremiah Vance
– UFC Star Chito Vera
– Eddie Bravo
– Heel Hook with MMA star Micah Miller
– Kevin is a Redneck, but he’s still the Liquid Terminator
– Uber driver wants to throw hands
– Punch choke help
– It’s not an Ezekiel Choke. That’s the secret to my Ezekiel choke.
– Workout torture at 10p West LA
– Einstein is my favorite jerk
– Einstein gives nicknames
– The Liquid Terminator wins the strength and conditioning challenge at 10th Planet West LA
– S&C

My new Leg Lock course is now live! 4 weeks of drilling on some of the most important movements and theories in the modern Brazilian Jiu Jitsu game. Check it out here:

https://bmac.mykajabi.com/offers/AopZcoYB

This is a lock I learned a LONG time ago and I’ve been shown some great variations of it over the years from some awesome martial artists such as Adlai Cleveland, Scott Elliot, and even the brilliant John Danaher included it on his leg lock set.

Currently, this is my finishing mechanic and it’s probably the leg lock I get the most often in training. I’m using it from both the 50/50 position and the Honey Hole. Well, we call it the Honey Hole at 10th Planet Decatur. Everyone seems to have a different name for it. Saddle. 411. Cross Ashi. Inside Senkaku. Call it what you want. I call it the honey hole.

As far as damage to the opponent goes, the inside heel hook is gonna be a much more devastating lock. But if you need a tap and maybe a break on the foot, this variation of the Straight Ankle Lock is gonna be there for you.

Let me know in the comments if this was helpful to you or if you have other techniques you wanna see!
I’m looking forward to putting out more content like this for you guys as we continue to build this channel into something really resourceful and beneficial to the BJJ community!
