The White Belt Mistake of Holding a Good Position Too Long in BJJ

Today’s BJJ video comes from a situation I was talking about with 1 of my students recently. It’s a simple idea of making what I call a “tactical retreat” to a lesser position. In the video I explain this idea and how many BJJ White Belts or lower belts (although some higher belts do it too), try and hang onto a dominant position too long. Even after the main points of control have been lost.

This leads to a situation where the opponent is then able to potentially gain the upper hand. I personally made this mistake a ton early on in my Brazilian Jiu-jitsu training and competitions.

So, in the video I’ll show some general ideas on this strategy from mount, back mount and side control.

Hopefully it’s useful to you!
