I like to use the lockdown, hooking the leg from the outside. when I failed at blocking the crossface before getting underneath, that way I can setup a superman sweep or if my opponent has an underhook on the same side as my outside leg hook, you can hook the arm and sweep from there

Great rundown Stephan. My only question is about staying close 1m20s. Whenever I bring my head close, the person on the top goes for a choke. My current method is to stay far back and leave my knee in between, moving backward to create an angle and keep my head far away. It works really well, but doesn't lend itself to deep half.

I have found that even with lock down you can move quite a bit. If you get to deep half guard with lock down you are already close to an electric chair with less chance of them getting the leg out. I like how the lockdown breaks the posture of the guy more than anything.

What is your opinion on a half guard variant where you'll hook with your lower leg, and put your upper knee on your opponents shoulder. There you can use the leg to keep your opponent from stacking on to you or use it to lauch you up with a kicking motion to either sweep or take his back. Saw a guy using this effectively vs. me although he's lot more skilled that I am. It was really difficult for me to pass his guard because of the knee and he eventually submitted me with a triangle.

Hey Stephan, I just started bjj and i was wonder what you can do grip fighting wise if the opponent is twice your size and stronger than you?
@MrChickennnnn
8 жыл бұрын
+John Vo I'm assuming your opponent has also only recently started BJJ as well? If so, my best advice for starting out is learning attacks/sweeps/defence from positions such as half-guard. whilst you definitely need to understand all the basics, adding some advanced moves into your arsenal will help you out a lot more than you think. In terms of grip fighting it really comes down to experience and strength/size. It will be hard for you to out grip fight an equally skilled opponent who is twice your size you it really comes down to you trying to out skill him with moves he hasn't encountered before. Stephen has a few good videos about omoplata variations and triangle variations that you should definitely check out. Other than that it really just comes down to rolling it out and figuring it out yourself.

gidva I hope you realise that there are more ways than one to grapple... some high level competitors when defending in Half Guard actually use it offensively for things like sweeps and win matches because of it, so it's not a loss if you know what you're doing. I hope you know that what he is teaching is still basic so it isn't like a thousand moves... and I'll agree that training with a Gi is good.
