Countering heel hook escapes, from Cutting Edge Leglocks https://www.grapplearts.com/cutting-edge-leglocks. The 411 position (aka the saddle, the cross ashi, and the honey hole) with the inside heel hook is one of the most powerful leglock attacks in no gi grappling, but unfortunately, as it’s become more popular people are getting better at defending it. Here are 3 competition-proven ways to shut down that escape and finish your opponent no matter how he tries to squirm out of your submission!

0:00 – Counter Number 1, the Rolling Dig
07:05 – Counter Number 2, Inverting to Backside 50/50
11:56 – Counter Number 3, Connecting to the Hip

In today’s video I address a common problem that affects many new BJJ practitioners, especially hobbyists.

And today’s question comes from a fella named Luke who’s a White Belt just starting out in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu and he wants to learn how to maximize his progress with his 3-day a week schedule. Now, he’s not trying to be a high-level competitor, he’s not worried about belts, he’s just doing this as a journey for himself.

So, in the video I talk about this idea and why you want to avoid this idea of maximizing anything, especially if you’re a hobbyist.

Recently 1 of my smaller BJJ students was asking questions about how to add top pressure in Side Control. So, I gave them a few tips that helped them out and I figured I’d share them with you.

As a smaller person in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu you can certainly add top pressure. But you’ve got to me more deliberate than say a 300lbs person who can have sloppy positioning but still feel like a ton of bricks. And the video will give you some ideas on how to do that.

That said, all of the stuff that I talk about in the video is perfectly useable for a bigger person too. They’re sound fundamentals. But again, if you want to have strong pressure on top of side control and don’t want to get rolled, then they’re even more important if you’re not a massive person.

Hope the video is useful to you.
