I Used to Tap Everyone with this Triangle Setup

April 18, 2018 by Gary Berger Leave a Comment

I use to love the spider guard! I used it for years until my fingers got too messed up haha it is a great position for someone with a strong grip.

Spider guard is great for grapplers With long limbs because you can easily stretch your opponent out and get the submission or a sweep. Shorter grapplers can also use this position to keep bigger opponents from smashing them down.

P.S. no liabilities

Jiu-Jitsu Defensive Techniques | Punch-Proofing Positions

April 17, 2018 by Gary Berger Leave a Comment

In training primarily grappling, and especially much on the ground, it is easy to get caught up focusing only on the competitive aspects in which striking is not involved. This can create some bad habits that leave you exposed for punches in many of your positions and transitions.

Bad habits can be avoided or remedied by including striking elements and considerations into your grappling training. I believe this is important even if your primary focus is competitive or sportive grappling, as it maintains your ability to handle striking situations for mma and self-defense situations.

Here are a few ideas that will help to punch-proof common positions from the ground grappling aspect.

Best 1st Submission for a Lanky BJJ White Belt

April 4, 2018 by Gary Berger Leave a Comment

I got a question from a Lanky BJJ White Belt who is looking to implement his 1st submission option into his Brazilian Jiu-jitsu game.

He says he’s 6’3 175lbs and is able to survive on the mat and now wants to start working towards being able to submit people.

In this video I share my idea on the fact that your anatomy is going to play a huge role in your BJJ game.

You see in Brazilian Jiujitsu. Our body will often dictate some of the techniques we tend to favor early on.

For me as a White Belt in Brazilian Jiujitsu. I LOVED Kimuras. I have somewhat short arms for my height and I am strong. So I can lock up the position very effectively.

In this video my partner is Chad, who has a nasty Triangle Choke game.

And he naturally favored Triangles and Armbars from the guard from the start of his BJJ training when he was just one of the beginners in our classes.

So my answer is modeled off of Chad and I try to show a different type of Triangle Choke setup that I haven’t demonstrated on the channel yet.

If you’re a lanky long White Belt, I hope this video is useful for you in finding your initial submission attack. And more than likely you’ll favor the Full Guard as your main platform for attack.

Thanks for watching!

De la Riva Pass Barnyard Cat

April 3, 2018 by Gary Berger Leave a Comment

In this video I show an aggressive flop pass. This is a very competitive pass that pairs well with a lot of other open guard passes. It takes some practice with the timing and the pathway for the legs but once you have drilled it, this pass is highly effective.

One of the things that I had to stress during the class is the pathway for the leg that is on the outside. This pass is NOT a Back Step or Long Step. If you do it this way (and it looks very similiar) then you will find that your opponent can turn their knees towards you and you may find yourself in guard a lot. Rather than it being a back step, make it about the pathway of the outside leg behind the knee behind the knee pit.

I included a short collection of my students practicing the movement and you will see that there are people of all belt rank practicing this and they all have various levels of hip movement. You should really strive to flair the hips but not in the backstep motion.

lastly, you will have to kill your own posture to be able to do this effectively. Notice that I lean my head forward and bring the trunk of my body parallel with the shin. This helps greatly and is not talked about in the video.

Being Positive In BJJ

March 13, 2018 by Gary Berger Leave a Comment

Such an important aspect of a sport that really tests your sense of self. It really is a sport where you can be on top of the world one night and just right back at the bottom the next. And what is one of the most important factors that you should bring to the fore during the down times? – being positive! Think about getting tapped all evening by jnr belts? Well, what’s positive about that? maybe, you were pushed cardiovascularly…then you will have improved your endurance. Maybe they have helped expose some weaknesses in your game right? and your down night is someone else’s up! That’s the way it goes in Jiu Jitsu._ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Old School Footlock!

March 9, 2018 by Gary Berger Leave a Comment

In this video, we are going to look at an underutilised footlock in Jiu-Jitsu. It’s not only underutilised but also underappreciated. And I think this provides some opportunities. Not only that but using this technique does not risk losing dominant or top position. Which many foot locks do. Watch this video guys and you will see what I mean. Give this one a try on the mat and let me know how you go…

Counter That Kimura!

March 7, 2018 by Gary Berger Leave a Comment

The Kimura is a great attack and I’ve got many videos showing many different ways to grab them. But in this video, I take you over how to counter a Kimura attempt when you are not within your opponent’s guard but when you are in a more dominant position – side control. It happens often particularly when you are up against a Kimura guy or gal – they just see Kimuras from every angle. But with this neat little counter. You will be in great shape. Check out the video guys and as usual, give it a try on the mat and let me know how you go…

Guard Retention details you need to know

March 4, 2018 by Gary Berger Leave a Comment

Hey guys here are some major details for mid range guard retention that will help take your defense to next level. Offense wins matches defense wins championships. Ask if you guys have any questions.

Headlock Control Series!

March 3, 2018 by Gary Berger Leave a Comment

This is a fantastic little submission chain of techniques that I like to teach from my white belts and beyond. The Headlock Control Series. Now when you pass your opponents guard. To get the ‘headlock control’ you will need both the head and the arm. Just getting the head in control only works on your baby brother when you were playfighting as kids. But that’s only the beginning. There are many variables at play and to get that submission on an experienced grappler, you will need to use all of them and in unison. But when you do…oh, boy – so powerful! Watch this video in detail guys. Take your time, as there are many details involved and it’s the nuances that count. As usual, please give it a go on the mat and let me know how you go…
