Last week I started a little series with what I call the Ugly Armbar. The move is also commonly called the Monoplata or Marceloplata.
In the video last week. I explain why I call it the Ugly Armbar opposed to the other name variations.
Here’s the Ugly Armbar setup from last week: https://youtu.be/WPngPq3I0Us
This week’s setup that you can use in your Brazilian Jiu-jitsu game is a little simpler than the one from last week.
This setup for the submission starts from Mount and counters a common defensive hand position. And a common desperation movement that people will use to try and get out of the Mount position.
Again, what I really like about this particular BJJ submission is the fact that it’s not commonly used.
While it might look a little funky. When I’ve used it in Brazilian Jiujitsu I’ve found it to be incredibly powerful and have great control with my game when I’m rolling.
So if you’re looking for another submission to throw into the mix for your Mount game. Try the Ugly .

Recently I had a student who had his very 1st day of Brazilian Jiu-jitsu. But this White Belt’s 1st class almost never happened.
I ended up catching him walking out of the gym doors about to head home. He had his BJJ gi on with his gym bag in hand.
I stopped him and told him to hell with fear, fuck fear.
He had his gi on, he has been wanting to start training and he knows me. So I said, let’s do it!
He came back in the gym and had his very 1st day of BJJ and it went great. And this new BJJ White Belt has trained several times since then. And I sincerely hope he continues to push through.
And I decided to share this story because I receive messages from many of you who are interested in training. But for 1 reason or another. You choose not to.
Many of the reasons you bring up are not legitimate reasons, but rather are reasons cooked up by irrational fears.
When I speak to someone who waited to start Brazilian Jiujitsu. Oftentimes the only regret they have is that they waited as long as they did. It was never regret out of starting.
So if you haven’t started yet but you want to, I hope you find this video useful.

One of my favorite submissions is a shoulder submissions commonly called the Monoplata or Marceloplata.
But I have a different name for it. I call it the Ugly armbar.
I call it this because it sort of looks like the 1st Armbar I did as a White Belt. That 1st armbar I did back in 2003 was really ugly!
And that’s where the name comes from. I call in the Ugly Armbar.
Fun story, I originally figured this move out on my own. I didn’t see it in an instructional or video. Then later on when I was browsing through some Brazilian Jiu-jitsu techniques. I came across Marcelo Garcia showing the technique.
So much for inventing a new move! 😛
In this BJJ technique video. I show one of my favorite sneaky setups for this shoulder lock submission, which starts from Side Control goes to mount and finishes.
In this setup I sort of sit up back which gives the illusion to the opponent that I’m off balance. I’ve found that many people take the bait and roll towards me.
As they do this I step over and catch the arm and setup the submission.
I’lll show another setup for this Brazilian Jiu-jitsu technique later on next week.
So whether you call it the Monoplata, Marceloplata or the Ugly Armbar like me. I hope you like the setup!

Brazilian Jiu-jitsu is often like a form of meditation for many of us. After a hard training session we often feel a stillness in our mind.
BJJ does this like very few things can.
I bring this up because our friend Josh used BJJ to deal with a lot of the issues that exist outside the gym. But right now, he’s injured and is not able to train Brazilian Jiujitsu.
And the problem with this is, he’s dealing with his father who is dying of cancer and his girlfriend just left him as well.
He wants to get back into the gym as soon as possible and asked about the type of training he should be engaged in.
In this video, I talk 1st about how I was in a very similar situation as Josh, and how I dealt with it (which wasn’t a good way).
Instead of dealing with with my mother’s passing I chose to numb myself with excessive amounts of training. To the point where I would be in the gym at 3am lifting just to exhaust myself so I couldn’t think.
At the end after me trying to get Josh to think about easing his BJJ and Lifting training schedule I give a few tips on how train without aggravating the injury.
I hope the video helps!

Two of my students and I went to support a grappling tournament in Tennessee to raise money for autism.
I wasn’t going to compete but they guilted me into doing a super fight. So here it is. Grappling for a great cause!
Props to my opponent for taking the match last minute. I was happy to be a part of the cause.

Getting flattened out in Side Control and being stuck underneath someone can be one of the toughest things to deal with as a White Belt in BJJ.
In the video a 6 Week White Belt is having this exact problem. He’s getting flattened out and crushed underneath larger Blue and Purple Belts.
Now as I express in the video. If you’re a BJJ White Belt and you’re against a Blue or Purple Belt in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu.
There’s probably nothing you can do to deal with it.
Their experience in Brazilian Jiujitsu will typically be too great for you to deal with.
But one of the simple lessons that really makes a big difference when trying to escape Side Control.
Is start by forgetting about the actual escape. And see if you can simply stay on your side.
If you’re on your side, your ability to escape Side Control goes up dramatically.
And I find that my White Belts experience a sharp increase in their ability to escape Cross Side in BJJ by simply focusing 1st on staying on their side.
So if you are experiencing this same issue. My challenge to you is this!
When you’re rolling during your next BJJ class. Just see if you can stay on your side by using the tips described in this video.
Hope the video helped!

One of the most common Guard passes many BJJ practitioners are taught early on is the very basic version of the Double Under Pass.
Some call it a Double Under Pass, others call it a Stack Pass.
Whichever name you use to describe this Brazilian Jiujitsu technique. It’s still a very powerful and easy to implement pass.
In this video I answer questions I received from many people regarding how to defend against this particular pass.
During the video Chad stacks me and as he passes I initiate a very simple but effective technique call the Stiff Arm Escape.
The Stiff Arm Escape is used anytime we have the person expose their armpit to us.
If you can see the back of their armpit and you have space to lock the arm out. Then you can do the Stiff Arm.
During the video I give some specific details that make this technique work.
So hopefully this counter / escape will help you with your Guard retention in Brazilian Jiujitsu.
