Recently I did a video about Half Guard and getting out of a flattened out situation. Many of the comments in that video said the technique was helpful. But I did have 1 that said the video was too complicated.
In the comments section Assaf wrote: “Way too complicated. I got lost. Can you break it down to separate videos. One technique per video. And slower. This is fundamentals. This is where I always get lost. I’m so bad with all these rules. Show each rule. Don’t just say the rule. Please. Thank you 🙏”
So I wanted to do this video to share with Assaf, and anyone like him, how I digest information and fight against things being overcomplicated.
In this video I’ll share the key habit which is rewatching and re-attempting to put the information to use over and over again. I won’t watch a video once. I’ll watch it over and over again for multiple days. I’ll become almost obsessed with that technique until I either get it working or decide to move on.
Hopefully the story I share in the video illustrates this point well enough and helps you with your own consumption of BJJ instructional videos.
Btw, here is the Half Guard video I referenced in case you want to watch it:
Thanks for watching.

In this video I share a cautionary tale about talking during rolling from when I was a BJJ White Belt. I share the story from my Brazilian Jiujitsu training because I received a question about talking during rolling. I know this will not be the most groundbreaking question and answer video I’ve ever done, but I do have a fun story to share with it and I hope you enjoy the video.
When it comes to talking during Brazilian Jiu-jitsu, it’s going to happen. Part of the reason why so many of us stick to Jiu-jitsu is the bonding that happens on the mat. We are in a place where we train and exercises. But it’s also a place where we get to know each other in person, not digitally, and become friends.
I know that one of the reason I’ve continued to train for so long is 100% the community of people inside the gym.
With that said, ever gym is different. In my gym we talk shit to each other constantly in a fun and laughing way. Some gyms don’t do this. So ultimately look to the leaders of your gym to figure out what is acceptable.
But I hope you find the story entertaining and enjoy the video. And if you have a question about talking during BJJ training then I hope it’s useful to you!
Thanks for watching!

Half Guard is one of my favorite Brazilian Jiujitsu positions to play from on the bottom. I love the ability to get sweeps even against bigger stronger opponents. But one of the most frustrating problems with Half Guard (at least early on) is getting flattened out on your back when someone is passing.
When you’re flat on your back you Half Guard is useless and is more of an offensive position for the BJJ practitioner on top.
In this video I’ll show some basic grip fighting options that will prevent your Half Guard from being wrecked in BJJ. Along with the grips I’ll also show you how to go with the power to escape a strong squeeze on top when you’re flat in Half Guard.
If you’re struggling with Half Guard in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu because you get stuck flat on your back then I hope this video is useful to you!
Thanks for watching the video!
