Today’s video is set of 7 Butterfly Guard sweeps we’ve been drilling in my Brazilian Jiu-jitsu classes (as of the time of posting this).

They’re very basic techniques. But I’ve found if you combine them together seamlessly, they’re difficult to stop. There are variations of how each move is used but these are some of mine. Hopefully they’re helpful to you with your BJJ training and drilling ideas.

In the video you’ll see . . .
– Over Under Sweep
– Double Overhook Sweep
– Coming Up To 1 Knee to Force the Person To Engage
– Failes Over Under to Double Over
– Coming Up for an Ankle Pick
– Armdrag to Back Mount
– Using a Straight Armlock as a Sweep

Thanks for watching the video!

The post 7 Butterfly Guard Sweeps to Build an Effective Sweeping Game appeared first on jitseasy.

Today’s video is a Half Guard sweeps drilling video. This is some of the things I’m working on with my classes and I figured I’d share them with you as well.

In the video you’ll see 7 different Half Guard sweeps or techniques used. And the way we do it is after the sweep or technique is used the other person will regain their half guard and then the sequence restarts. This keeps the action moving and keeps it more engaging for both people.

If you’re a Half Guard player or trying to get better at the position, I hope the sweeping drills help.

The post The 'Head Mount' – A Secret Position to Pin a Squirmy Opponent Flat on his Back appeared first on jitseasy.

One of my favorite submissions in Brazilian JiuJitsu is the Kimura. It’s a versatile BJJ technique that can be done from both bottom or top. As a submission or a setup to other attacks and positions. And there are so many variations of the technique itself.

And it seems to favor people with shorter stronger arms. Which is a physical quality I have.

In this video I take a Brazilian Jiu-jitsu question from Jeffrey on Twitter who inquired about tips on finishing the Kimura against someone who is pushing against his hip which prevents him from stepping over. I didn’t have a video of it but I assumed he’s trying this from side control.

In this video I show one of my favorite Kimuras to use in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu. I do it in BJJ competitions and rolling in the gym. I bypass the stepping over part completely in lieu of just going around to North South to execute the technique.

Just be careful with it, because they catch comes fast on this one.

If you’re looking for another variation of the Kimura in BJJ. Give this one a try. If you do, I hope it works for you!

The post Effective BJJ Kimura Finish (Even Works on Big People) appeared first on jitseasy.

In this video I show a “fly on the wall” video series of some BJJ X Guard Drills we were working on.

During the drilling cause we started with X Guard entry drills then moved into X Guard sweeps with some of them being cyclical style drills. Meaning I sweep you, then get up and then you sweep me. And the drill is continuous.

We spent the better part of an hour and half going through these different BJJ drills and this was after a week of drilling these same movements over and over again.

We all got a ton of value from it. Many of us after this week of X Guard techniques found ourselves hitting the sweeps and options effectively.

X Guard is one of my favorite positions in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu because I honestly don’t have incredibly long legs for my size and I often find myself there after working from positions like Butterfly Guard and Half Guard.

Since I have shorter legs and a thick torso. I can kind of ball myself up under a person to keep them off balance and achieve a sweep. I’ve used this style of sweeping against people much larger than me with great effect during rolling and Brazilian Jiujitsu competitions.

So if you’re looking for some BJJ drills to boost your X Guard. Whether it’s just getting to the position or sweeping. Hopefully these drills will be helpful to you and your Brazilian Jiujitsu game.

Thanks!
-Chewy

The post 7 BJJ X Guard Drills ( Entries and Sweeps ) appeared first on jitseasy.

A lot of people have this misconception that you can’t improve on only 2 – 3 days a week of BJJ training.

And these people feel like they need to either train more or do more outside of the gym to get better at Brazilian Jiu-jitsu.

And this is the question I received for this video. Recently I was asked about this same subject. The question was about what someone can do outside of the gym to get better inside the gym.

There are numerous options. But what I focused on for this video was the idea of maximizing the training time effectively when it’s limited.

I have a bunch of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu students who can only training 2-3 days a week. And they’re monsters. They are super tough. They win competitions and give me fits when I roll with them.

And over the years I’ve noticed certain traits these people share. So in this video I describe those traits and hopefully give you some advice on how you can still get better and improve with only 2-3 days a week of BJJ training.

I hope the video helps! Thank for watching.

The post Tips to Improve With Only 2-3 days a Week of BJJ Training appeared first on jitseasy.

The kimura from side control is one of my all time favorite submissions in BJJ. For whatever reason, I believe it’s my short arms, I’ve always favored the kimura from side control as well as straight armlocks. I’ve been using the submission in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu successful since I was a white belt and still use it as a black belt in rolling and BJJ competitions.

In this video I answer a problem one of our friends on Youtube has. He says that he goes for them but only gets them maybe 5% of the time.

So in this video I show a few tips and tricks I use to make the arm available for the kimura attack, and make my kimura more effective. I also go into detail about securing the double wrist lock which I believe is the most important thing when finishing a kimura from side control.

If you training Brazilian Jiu jitsu and you’re looking for a relatively safe submission, or you’re looking for a submission from cross side. Then watch the video and give this technique a try.

As always, I hope the video helps!
