<p>If you&#8217;re playing half guard and your opponent gets chest to chest on you, especially if he also gets a crossface and an underhook, then you&#8217;re in a LOT of trouble.  He&#8217;s going to put a TON of pressure on you and make your life absolutely miserable. In this section from the BJJ for Old F***s instructional (https://www.grapplearts.com/oldguard) Rob Biernacki shows you exactly how you can use a series of upper body frames including your hands, your  elbows, your wrists, and even your torso itself to keep his weight off of you.  </p>
<p>Framing like this gives you the space you need to move into an underhook and work towards his back, or bring your legs back into play to achieve a knee shield guard or some variation of an open guard.</p>
<p>If you found this useful then here are a couple more videos on Youtube that might be of some use as well&#8230;</p>
