Mini Ep. 14: Countergripping

Mini Ep. 14: Countergripping

BJJ Mental Models

In this week's mini-episode, we discuss **countergripping!** There are three ways to counter a grip: - **breaking the grip** (stripping their fingers),- **inverting the grip** (pummeling to make the grip our own), or- **changing the angle** (which can render the grip useless). In general, breaking the grip is the least efficient option, changing the angle is the most efficient, and inverting the grip is in between. Note that we want our grips to be **dominant grips,** meaning that they give us more control than they give to our opponent. Listen to our prior mini-episode, "grips dictate position," before this one: [https://podcast.bjjmentalmodels.com/243161/15489555-mini-ep-13-grips-dictate-position](https://podcast.bjjmentalmodels.com/243161/15489555-mini-ep-13-grips-dictate-position) Read more about countergripping: [https://bjjmentalmodels.com/countergripping](https://bjjmentalmodels.com/countergripping) Get our Intro to Mechanics audio course, normally $79, FREE: [https://bjjmentalmodels.com/freeintro](https://bjjmentalmodels.com/freeintro) **Don't forget to check out BJJ Mental Models Premium!** If you love the podcast, you'll definitely love our premium membership offerings.
