For long time, I have struggled to secure strong two on one grips in no-gi. So I spent exploring possibilities, and this method occurred to me. Since then, I’ve used it to dominate several positions, and now I’m sharing it with you.

Play with it.

#BJJ #closedguard #gripfighting

Grip fighting in BJJ can be overwhelming at 1st. There are lots of grips and knowing which ones to fight for can be difficult. In today’s video I have a question about this exact thing from a White Belt.

He says that when he’s training Jiu-jitsu in the gi he feels lost on which grips he should be fighting for. So in this video I share a simple idea that you can implement into your Brazilian Jiu-jitsu to make grip fighting simple.

This is my personal strategy on fighting for grips and when I lay it out, you’ll probably think of it as maybe too simple. But sit back and watch some of the best guys out there and notice that they don’t grip up casually. They grip up with intention for something very specific.

Practice this and you’ll experience a much higher success rate with your techniques, and you’ll never feel lost by which grips you should go for.

These 3 Triangle choke setups are really sneaky and I have been using them a lot recently after studying Felipe Andrew. When developing a guard it’s not only important to have good systems and sweeps but also to have some really dangerous submissions that are hard to predict because it keeps your opponent in a level of fear which makes them more defensive. I included conception clips of all the techniques. Hope you like the video and please comment and ask questions if you have any.

This video I discuss the concept of single sleeve control. This is commonly one of the first grips you get in jiu jitsu as your opponent needs to use his hand to commit to making a grip which always makes a sleeve available. This position is a starting point for transitioning into most open guards in BJJ such as Collar Sleeve, Spider/Double Sleeve, Cross Sleeve DLR, Cross Guard, Romulo Guard, Reverse DLR and more. I cover some basics of control as well as concepts for how you can transition to other positions with it. Let me know if you have any questions or requests.

In this video, I show some of my training session and how I train with one arm.

It has been a learning experience from knowing which positions I should try to implement and what to avoid during a training session.

It has been humbling but a great learning experience in developing my guard retention, mobility, and importance of control and position.

Thanks to my coach, Chewy, for getting some movement in with me during the roll and taking the time to teach and give me some advice during training!

A common problem I see when people are defending their guard is they have their elbows too high on the inside of their knees. This creates a separation from your lower body and open body that makes it easier for your opponent to open up your elbow knee space which will lead to guard passes. In this video I discuss a lot of the benefits of keeping your elbows on the outside of your knees (Better framing of hip, tighter core, better grip fighting) Let me know if you guys have any more questions and or thoughts.
