Fundamental Armbar from Full Guard for Beginners in BJJ

Gary Berger — Wed, 14 Feb 2024 20:01:42 +0000

Today’s video comes as a request from a viewer named Jake.

Jake is a white belt and ask for some Arm Bar techniques that work well and are easy to learn for beginners in Jiu-Jitsu.

In this video I’ll give you guys 2 different Arm Bar techniques that can definitely help you out if you’re a white belt in BJJ (or any belt level for that matter!)

For both techniques I’ll point out some minor gripping details that I would use in both the Gi and No-Gi BJJ situations. On top of that, I will teach you some basic concepts to help you hold the position tighter and keep your partners posture broken.

I’ll also introduce some different guard variations, starting from closed guard, like the Diamond Guard, which help me secure my Arm Bars when I can’t catch them quickly & how to take advantage of common mistakes White Belts make when they’re stuck in someone’s Closed Guard.

Hopefully if you’re a White Belt, or really anyone who wants to improve your Arm Bars for Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, or MMA, then you found this video helpful.

Thanks for watching!

One Way To Tighten Up The Transition To The Armbar in Closed Guard

Gary Berger — Wed, 22 Nov 2023 16:30:11 +0000

Being able to finish armbars from closed guard is one of the testaments of skill, in my opinion. So I’m always thinking about ways to do it better. And this transition has come from that lab, with some input from my students.

Try it out and let me know what issues you experience.

2 Corkscrew Armbars from a Failed Kimura in Full Guard

Gary Berger — Mon, 09 Jan 2023 20:00:17 +0000

Today’s BJJ technique question comes from Spencer who’s getting to a Kimura from the bottom but is unable to finish it. He sent me a question asking for options based on the position he was getting to.

As a Kimura guy I know the exact issue he’s running into. So, in the video I show 2 different armbar options I’ve used in competitions. They’re just basic variations of the corkscrew armbar.

If you find yourself in the same situation, then I hope the techniques help.

Cheeky Armlock from Full Guard for a British BJJ Blue Belt

Gary Berger — Wed, 22 Dec 2021 19:00:19 +0000

Recently I got asked to do a video showing a “cheeky” submission. Obviously, this request came from one of our British friends who’s a Blue Belt in Jiu-jitsu.

So in today’s BJJ technique video I’ll show you a simple “cheeky” submission that you could use in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu training the next time you’re rolling. It’s a super simple armlock that you can hit when you’re inside someone’s full guard.

Now this is 1 technique out of a group that I sort of classify as funny 1 shot techniques. Meaning they’ll probably work 1 time and that’s about it. If you’ve been doing BJJ for long enough. You’ve probably had some situations where someone has caught you in some weird technique and then you never fell for it again.

This is one of those techniques. Nonetheless, happy hunting for the technique the next time you’re rolling with a friend and want to throw mess around a bit.

Versatile BJJ Armlock to Counter Opponents Who Crowd Your Full Guard

Gary Berger — Mon, 06 Dec 2021 20:57:51 +0000

Today’s BJJ technique video is from one of my Brazilian Jiu-jitsu classes where I showed one of my favorite setups and armlocks from Full Guard / Closed Guard.

The focus of the setup is to get the person’s hand on the mat or on the outside of your body which will allow you to snag the arm and get a catch on the shoulder. From there I show a straight armlock and then transition to corkscrew armbar.

And even if you don’t like the techniques shown you can still use the setup for lots of submissions and attacks from full guard.

Hope the video gives you a useful idea to bring into your next training session. And hopefully it helps you secure an extra arm lock or two.

4 Full Guard Sweeps Every BJJ White Belt Should Learn As Early As Possible

Gary Berger — Tue, 12 Oct 2021 19:00:01 +0000

In today’s Bjj technique video I show you 4 fundamental full guard sweeps that every White Belt should learn as early as possible. I call them fundamental sweeps because they’re essential techniques that have useful movements which can be used in a myriad of positions in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. And I say that every BJJ White Belt should learn them early because they can be used to setup combos and other attacks that will serve them well until they’re a Black Belt.

For instance the scissor sweep is a good basic sweep that is great for learning to open your guard and progress to open guards later on in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. The bump sweep is great as a sweep but also is incredibly effective off-balancing technique that can lead to lots of other options in Brazilian Jiujitsu. And each closed guard sweep in this video has the same qualities to it.

Hope the video is useful to you and your training.

Thanks for watching.
