Mini Ep. 41: Redundancies

BJJ Mental Models

In this week's mini-episode, we explain the concept of **redundancies,** or how to ensure you have backup options if your plan fails. There are two ways to create redundancies in your technique: by using multiple points of control, and by having a solid "plan B."

Mini Ep. 39: Surface Area

BJJ Mental Models

In this week's mini-episode we explain the concept of **surface area,** or how much of your body is connected to your opponent when you apply force. You can create more pressure by applying maximal force through the smallest surface area. A classic example is the "shoulder of justice" side control crossface pin. We also discuss other benefits to minimizing surface area, and other types of pressure beyond the physics definition.
