Getting your guard passed sucks. The problem is that we tend to fight hard to prevent it from happening, only to be exhausted, mentally and physically, when and if it happens. But, by prioritizing your tactics for guard play, guard retention and pass prevention in early to late stages, you can take some of the stress and exhaustion out of the process. In this video, I try to offer some solutions for that process. Hope it helps.

The post The ‘4H’ Formula for Stopping the Guard Pass appeared first on jitseasy.

Preventing the Guard pass is the most important aspect of Jiu-Jitsu. The position is called Guard for the very purpose that the Guard position is what protect the bottom fighter from being attacked. Loose the Guard and you will not only be vulnerable to attacks but you will also start to get tired, once tired your technique will start to suffer.

Be sure to train your Guard preventions above all. Having a difficult Guard to pass will allow you to relax and have the confidence to attack you opponent. The harder you Guard is to pass the more you can open up and take chance.

Be sure to work this sequence it is a very power recipe for Guard retention.
