Today’s video is a question from a viewer named Brandon who’s been playing Butterfly Guard in his BJJ classes.

He said he’s had a lot of success with it, but he says everyone is catching on and stopping his underhooks. So in the video I show a simple way to get the underhook even if the person is resisting. It’s something I’ve used a ton and has been very effective with my Brazilian Jiu-jitsu, so I hope it is for your BJJ as well.

Thanks for watching.

If you’ve spent much time under heavy people in side control, you’ve likely put your elbows through hell framing at some point. This leads to some tendon strain and possible other injuries and chronic conditions. In this video, I talk with Dr Carlos about chronic elbow pain I’ve developed over the years, why it has happened, and then we kick it to his channel (link at the end) to see what can be done to help this. Hope you like this series!

Passing very flexible guards is difficult, period. When the guard player can invert, monitor, replace and defend with lots of dynamic flexibility, you are likely to have a hard time securing the pass. This video shows some principles, techniques and tricks for dealing with this kind of flexible guard, no gi edition. Obviously, lots of other ways exist for dealing with this, but these are just a few I selected to illustrate so principles I think are important. I hope this helps.

Winning the grip battle from guard is incredibly important because you get your preferred grip then you can attack and your opponent can’t pass your guard. In this drill from https://www.grapplearts.com/gripfighting (The Gripfighting and Kuzushi Formula) Rob Biernacki teaches and then demonstrates the ‘Engagement Phase Game’ (starting at 3:27). This drill is taxing but will take your gripfighting abilities to the next level.

Offbalancing someone in the grappling arts is known as ‘Kuzushi’. Typically people use the term Kuzushi in a Judo context, but it can also be used in a jiu-jitsu context where you use it to set up sweeps, submissions and transitions to more dominant guard positions.

You can use Kuzushi from the guard in both gi and not gi, and in every form of guard including the closed guard, recumbent open guard, seated guard, half guard, etc.

The three basic types of Kuzushi from the guard are,

1, Hanging or swinging Kuzushi
2, Blocking or pushing Kuzushi, and
3, Intercepting Kuzushi

Once he’s off-balance and his alignment broken he’ll be much easier to deal with. He won’t be trying to pass your guard. He’ll be so off balance that all he’ll be thinking about is recovering his position.

Check out our in-depth instructional on how to use gripfighting and Kuzushi to dominate the guard at https://www.grapplearts.com/kuzushi

This instructional gives you step-by-step gameplans and training methods for two of the most important skills in BJJ: gripfighting and offbalancing your opponent from the guard https://www.grapplearts.com/gripfighting.

The Gripfighting and Kuzushi Formula covers two of the most important (but least taught) aspects of jiu-jitsu…

Gripfighting, which determines who can be on offense in the guard, and
Kuzushi, without which your guard attacks just won’t be effective.
The step-by-step systems covered in this instructional will skyrocket your ability to sweep and submit people from the guard!

Gripfighting is the Cheatcode for Dominating the Guard
There’s just no other skill that gives you as much bang for your buck in jiu-jitsu as gripfighing. This is something that everyone at the elite level does, but the skill itself is rarely taught in jiu-jitsu class.

Once you get a dominant grip from your guard the advantage is yours. Now you can start off balancing your opponent and setting up your own sweeps, transitions and backtakes.

Gripfighting is also the secret to dominating bigger guys. After all, some dude may be able to bench 300 lbs but if he can’t get a good grip on you with his hands then he won’t be able to use all that strength to manhandle you.

Finally gripfighting is an almost perfect way to prevent guard passes because if you get dominant grips then you control the match and can shut down almost all of the other guy’s offense.

In The Gripfighting and Kuzushi Formula you’ll learn step-by-step gripping strategies to break your opponent’s grips and get dominant grips of your own. These are proven sequences and strategies to control your opponent, set up your offence, and win the guard battle in both gi and no gi.

Kuzushi is the Key to World Class Sweeps and Submissions from the Guard
Kuzushi from the guard is the art of destroying someone’s alignment to create openings for your attack.

It’s the secret sauce that separates recreational jiu-jitsu students from world class guard players. Basically kuzushi is required to sweep or submit people who don’t suck.

Just launching ‘a technique’ at your opponent is unlikely to work unless he’s a beginner. After all, every technique has a counter. But once his alignment is compromised then he’s much less able to prevent the sweep or submission. Kuzushi kills the counters.

Every single sweep, submission, or backclimb attempt should be preceded by off balancing your opponent first.

Once he’s off balance with his alignment broken he’ll be much easier to deal with. He won’t be trying to pass your guard. He’ll be so off balance that all he’ll be thinking about is recovering his position.

His frantic reactions to get back into position actually give YOU the opportunity to launch your real attack.

There’s no such thing as magic in BJJ, but properly applied Kuzushi comes pretty close.

In The Gripfighting and Kuzushi Formula you’ll learn exactly how to apply kuzushi to triple the effectiveness of your guard in both gi and no gi, against both standing and kneeling opponents, and from both the closed and open guard.

Here’s BJJ black belt Jon Thomas explaining the pros and cons of the shallow lasso hook vs the deep lasso hook from spider guard. This is an excerpt from https://www.grapplearts.com/the-open-guard-system/ which will give you a complete gameplan for the open guard!

In part 2 of this 4 part mini-series we look a the core drill that trains the absolutely essential sweeping, offbalancing and guard retention movements of the Single Leg X Guard. This is a small portion of https://www.grapplearts.com/single-leg-x-guard-masterclass/ The Single Leg X Guard Masterclass available on Grapplearts.com, and also available as a download within the Grapplearts BJJ Master App (https://www.grapplearts.com/masterapp). Please check them both out and see which works better for you!

In this 4 part mini-series you’ll get a crash course on the SLX position in BJJ and submission grappling. Today we look at the correct position of your legs, hips, arms and hands in the Single Leg X Guard. This is a small portion of https://www.grapplearts.com/single-leg-x-guard-masterclass/

A viewer asked about how to open the closed guard.

I go over one way to do it and discuss how to approach the idea of opening and passing as well as some fallacies people have about it.

I am working on a Guard Passing Instructional that will go much more into depth on how to open guards (specific angles and pressures) but I think this is a good option to master.

If you like my particular focus and style of teaching, you can get this kind of instruction almost daily for only $10/Month.
