This BJJ Sweep Will Make Your Kneeshield Half Guard Annoying

Gary Berger — Tue, 11 Mar 2025 19:53:21 +0000

This sweep can be the basis of offense from the kneeshield half guard. When done right, it will produce a reliable reaction. They will either base or fall, and both outcomes can lead to your offense.

In this video, you will learn more details about how to make the sweep easier to perform.

And there’s also a short review of how I set up loop chokes using the sweep.

Enjoy, and comment if you have questions.

Attack Style Guard Passing Options

Gary Berger — Thu, 16 May 2024 13:44:08 +0000

Attack Style Passing typically refers to threatening a submission in order to pass the guard. Sometimes this is higher risk than other times, but the effectiveness of this idea comes from the necessary response of the guard player creating space or opportunity in their reaction, allowing you to pass, potentially with a submission already working. Here are some of my favorite examples.

0:00 – 0:42: Intro
0:43 – 2:12: Diving Kimura Trap
2:13 – 3:29: Front Headlock to Anaconda
3:30 – 4:28: Front Headlock to Darce
4:29 – 5:43: “Flying” Triangle
5:52 – 6:53: “Flying” Arm Bar
6:54 – 7:57: Front Headlock to Back Take
7:58 – 9:09: Arm Drag to Back Take
9:10 – 10:31: Diving Toe Hold
10:32 – 11:48: Ham Sandwich

Hope you like it!

Strategy for Grappling Larger Opponents | Knee Shield Details

Gary Berger — Thu, 12 May 2022 14:05:18 +0000

The questions I get more than any other are nearly always regarding how to deal with bigger, stronger opponents…and it’s kind of a weird question, because I always try to use things that work on everyone. The main answer is you have to be more precise with your technique when dealing with bigger people because there’s less room for mistakes and more severe punishment for flawed technique.

However, if I had to address the technical aspect of dealing with bigger opponents, I would say that understanding frames is one of the most crucial things. So in this video, I show one of the best positions to illustrate strong and active framing, which is the knee shield position. I hope this helps.

Hip Cutting against the Knee Shield

Gary Berger — Thu, 27 Jan 2022 15:30:06 +0000

Hip cutting is a powerful way to get passed open guards, and particularly the knee shield. By cutting your hips, you are rotating them 180 degrees, which allows you to either roll over or under whatever frame is blocking you. So for a knee shield, we can cut our hips to roll over it by pointing them down.

But it isn’t something you typically do just once. You might pass the knee shield, but he could still frame with his arms, so you can cut again to go under his arms, and again to go over. In fact, you can cut as many times are you need to.

The other good thing about hip cutting is that each cut brings you closer to their head and further from their legs. A good hip cutter is a menace from top. A good example of a hip cutter is Andrew Wiltse. I have seen a few matches from him and the man’s hips move like a tornado, which is one reason why he does so well passing.

Sprawl Pass to Cradle to Back

Gary Berger — Tue, 25 Jan 2022 15:30:00 +0000

When working against the knee shield, there is an opportunity to lock up the cradle. The only problem is that usually your opponent is framing so their head is out of reach. But when you start circling with the sprawl pass, you have a good chance to catch their neck.

That’s when the fun begins. You can then use the cradle to work towards the back, all while he is being squeezed the whole time.
