In this video I show my favorite BJJ submission chain from Side Control I used as a White Belt in Jiu-jitsu rolling and competitions. Truth be told, I still use elements of it even now as a Black Belt. Just illustrating the fact that good sound fundamentals moves never become truly obsolete. So you don’t have to be a White Belt to use this submission series.

I originally learned this submission chain series from an old Brazilian Jiu-jitsu DVD series and would practice it with my roommate who was also involved with training.

It’s a pretty simple sequence. First it starts from Side Control with the Kimura and transitioning to North South. After that I use an Armbar if the Kimura isn’t successful or doesn’t feel right. Finally if all of those options fail I go for Back Mount.

If you know me, you know I love taking the back! And this is one of the first transitions I used that helped create this love for back taking.

So whether or not you’re a BJJ White Belt. I hope you enjoy the submission chain shown in this video and I hope it’s useful to you.

Black-Belt/Adult/Male – Qualifier

Over the years as a head coach and co-owner of a BJJ/MMA gym I’ve learned that. . .

People are cray-zee.

Either that or they watch too many movies.

Like, last Friday I had this guy who wanted to live in the gym and train with me.

He’s planning on going to the UFC and being the champion. Ignoring the fact that he’s in his mid 30s and has never trained before.

Then yesterday I got an email from a person who had requested information about our gym.

After sending him the info, here’s his reply. .
———

“Laugh out loud. I am trained to be a prize fighter. I do not need orders.

I need amateur fights immediately at 170lbs, and an avenue to quickly go pro at 155lbs. I am 70″ tall, 185lbs, 75″ reach. 11-0 Bjj with one blue belt state title and one blue belt NAGA title. Pure Muay Thai striking (like a actual thai fighter, not this bullshit on tv).

As Connor Mcgregor once said, “I fight at 155 because I have the greatest advantage, without an advantage on height or reach, training is useless”.

The fact that I even sent you an email this long makes me want to run through your roster to prove a point, but it is not worth the potential injuries. I have to protect my fighter lifespan, as I am 30 years old. I cannot take any injuries right now. Period.

Sit on that & respond later,
———
Gosh. . . it’s so good!

My favorite part is that he spelled out LOL and ended with “sit on that and respond later”

But sadly I won’t respond later because I believe this poor chap has lost his grip on reality.

A sad state of affairs for such a prize fighter.

But this stuff just isn’t like the feel good movies where anything is possible.

And I’m just not going to blow smoke up someone’s butt and tell them they’ll be the next Connor McGregor. It’s not right.

Sit on this video, and I’ll talk to you later.

In BJJ there is a move that inexperienced White Belts will do from dominant positions. I jokingly call it the “White Belt Hug.”

The White Belt Hug is where someone just grabs your upper body and squeezes. This typically makes it worse for the person on the bottom in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu because they are pulling the person’s weight even more down on top of them.

So now you have their top pressure combined with your arm strength pulling them down.

Now while the technique is absolutely terrible for escaping. It can be really irritating because it gets in the way and slows things down.

In this video I show a couple of simple options to counter this technique when someone is in Mount..

The 1st is a simple forearm in the throat to create a frame. Pay close attention to how I use my whole body to break the grip.

The second is a simple option where i go to S mount to setup an armbar.

Again, not a complicated technique, but this was the question I was asked so I hope this helps.
