Technique

If you are a BJJ hobbyist over 35, shooting traditional double legs is a massive risk. Getting sprawled on by a heavier, younger opponent means spending the next 5 minutes exhausted and crushed on the bottom. You don't need more explosive power; you need a system that neutralizes their strength and keeps you safely on your feet. In this video, elite grappling coach Justin Flores (Wrestling, Judo, and BJJ Black Belt) reveals his "Link System" for No-Gi takedowns. Instead of forcing a single, high-risk shot, Justin shows you how to use effortless foot sweeps to break a heavy opponent's balance, setting up a sneaky "ghost" duck under and a devastatingly simple back sweep. This is "invisible Jiu-Jitsu" at its finest—using their own weight and reactions against them so you never have to risk getting stuck underneath. What You Will Learn: How to instantly dismantle a stronger opponent's underhook without using muscle. The "foot prop" trick to make a 220lb grappler feel light on their feet. Why chaining your attacks is the #1 secret for older grapplers to dominate the stand-up game. 🔥 Master Justin's Complete Foot Sweep System Here: [https://bjjfanatics.com/products/foot-sweep-flo-by-justin-flores] Navigate the Masterclass: 0:00 - Intro: The Most Complete Takedown Coach in BJJ 0:19 - The 50/50 Over-Under: Why It’s a Trap 0:32 - The "Foot Prop" Secret to Break Heavy Posture 0:45 - The "Ghost" Duck Under (Destroying Strong Underhooks) 0:50 - The Zero-Risk Back Sweep Finish 1:05 - The "Link System": Chaining the Moves Together 1:53 - How to Chase the Underhook Without a Gi 2:44 - Solving the Opposite Stance Problem 3:10 - Sneaky Wrist Control Setups 4:47 - The "Old Man" Takedown Rule (Why This Saves Your Energy) 5:35 - Learn More from Justin Flores - For all your BJJ Gear and Apparel Needs Visit - https://store.bjjfanatics.com/ Are you a BJJ Fanatics Insider?

Anya is more direct with the message most the time. Here we look at closed guard, using an arm drag to set up a couple of arm bar options as well as a back take opportunity. As well as a PSA to not be creepy when training and rolling with girls if you’re a dude. Full class coming to my Patreon. #closedguard #jiujitsu #armbar #submissiongrappling #backtake

I ranked every major guard pass in jiu jitsu from useless to essential based on what actually works when you’re trying to pass against good people. In this episode of the I Suck at Jiu Jitsu Show, I break down the best guard passes in grappling using three criteria: risk, finishability, and versatility. If you’ve ever felt stuck inside someone’s guard, constantly getting swept, submitted, or forced into bad decisions just trying to pass, this will help you see things a lot more clearly. This isn’t just a list of flashy passes. I’m talking about what actually holds up in real training and competition. Which passes are worth building your game around, which ones are more situational, and which ones probably aren’t worth your time right now. I cover passes like the knee cut, torreando, leg drag, side smash, leg weave, float pass, tripod pass, body lock pass, long step, over under, double under, single under, X pass, Sao Paulo pass, cross pant grip passing, back step, reverse knee cut, knee staple, surfer pass, hip switch, cross body half guard passing, and more. If you’re newer and trying to figure out where to focus, or you’ve been training for a while and want to tighten up your passing system, this should give you a solid direction. And if you think I got something completely wrong, I want to hear it. Drop your hottest take in the comments. Subscribe for more jiu jitsu breakdowns, seminars, competition insights, and gameplans.

3 options if you find yourself in the body triangle. All of them carry the risk of getting you choked when you reach down.

Two armbar submissions that come on QUICK from side control. Dan Inosanto taught me to steal from anywhere but always give credit. Accordingly, I learned the first armbar by watching the guys at Rob Biernacki's Island Top Team, and the second armbar came from the GOAT Marcelo Garcia when he was in NYC.

Getting injured is something that will eventually happen to every BJJ practitioner. So how you work around it is important. There are times to take off completely and just rest, but there are also alternatives that will allow you to keep rolling while you recover. In this video I share an idea that I use anytime I have a small injury that's not too serious. Doing this has allowed me to heal up and recover while avoiding making the injury. Word of caution! The strategy I talk about in this video requires some discipline and intentionality. But I hope it helps ya. -Chewy ----------------- Free Ebook: https://www.chewjitsutraining.com/focused Want to ask Chewy a question: https://www.chewjitsutraining.com/question Video Courses and Products: http://www.chewjitsu.net/products T shirts: http://www.chewjitsu.net/shop/ http://www.Facebook.com/Chewjitsu http://www.instagram.com/Chewjitsu http://www.twitter.com/Chewjitsu Intro/Outtro Music : https://bknapp.bandcamp.com If you’d ever like to train with the team and I.
