Triangle Chokes are one of the most effective submissions from the bottom positions and can be a huge problem for any top player or guard passer. In today’s video we have a question regarding just that situation. Our friend Nick who is a wrestler type who is coming into BJJ is getting caught in triangle chokes left and right and he’s wondering if I have any tips on dealing with the situation.

In this video I share tips on both a triangle choke defense and how to defend it. I used to struggle with the same problem as a wrestler who would get caught in triangle chokes while passing guard. I also show how I corrected the issue.

I also share how I like to look at the triangle as a position which has multiple stages. I consider 3 stages of triangles to be a starting point which I explain in the video.

From there I talk about some tips to escape the triangle in stage 1, or a loosely locked triangle. I’ll work on escapes for the future if in a deeper position.

Hope you enjoy the video and thanks for watching!

When you roll, you should have fun but you should always focus on something specifically.

For most people, that focus´is exclusively getting the submission.
for me, I tend to focus most of my rolls on different kinds of controls and pressures and studying them.
This doesn’t mean I have to go hard or just smash or completely control my opponent.

More often, I do a kind of flow where I can focus on feeling what’s happening with the movement and his reactions to my weight and blocks.

There are many different kinds of weight (and methods of control) that I use but in this roll, I focused mostly on what I call “dead weight.”
In my upcoming Pressure & Control Instructional, I#ll be covering them all extensively.

I also discuss some knee cut passing principles (sorry about the audio)

One of the toughest parts with competitions early on is taking the loss. If you’re a seasoned competitor it’s pretty normal and you become used to the sting.

But with Brazilian Jiu-jitsu practitioners who are new to them. That can feel terrible.

In today’s video our friend who is a Blue Belt has lost the drive to train BJJ anymore after a competition loss.

The BJJ tournament was so intimidating to him that he says he never wants to one ever again. And because he began training Brazilian Jiujitsu to compete he now doesn’t know why he is training.

In this video I share about how my very 1st competition was a loss and the sting of that. I also explained how the contrast of my 1st win made all the difference.

If you’re in a situation where you are drawn to competing but for some reason had a bad outcome. That doesn’t mean you should give up. I believe in the situation you double down on your efforts.

Even if it’s simply to experience 1 win. You need to do that. Because it’s that getting knocked down then getting back up mentality that will carry over to every aspect of our training and lives.

The Toreando Pass in BJJ is one of the most basic passes people learn early on. That said it can still be effective at a higher level if used well.

There are a number of high level competitors with strong guard passing who use the Toreando pass as part of their arsenal.

And with just about any BJJ technique there are a lot of variations and different grips to be used. And the Toreando / Bullfighter Pass in BJJ is no different.

And so in this video I share some ideas on this basic guard pass. Which is in response to a question I received from Youtube.

So if you’re someone using the guard pass in your Brazilian Jiujitsu training or competitions then I hope this video is useful to you.

Switching to no gi grappling can be difficult. Here are 5 steps that will make it easier… 1) Accept that No Gi is an inherently faster style of grappling and be prepared to push the pace harder at times, 2) Change your grips so that they aren’t gi dependent, 3) Get rid of your gi dependent guards and start developing guards that work in no gi, 4) Learn how to take the back, maintain the back and submit from the back because it’s the best position in no gi grappling, 5) Develop your leglock and guillotine choke submissions because those are much more prevalent in no gi than in gi.

If you would like some more help developing your gi and no gi games then here are a couple of FREE resources for you…

Getting beaten in BJJ is an essential way

In this video our friend is curious about the way he learns BJJ techniques.

He says during his Brazilian Jiu-jitsu training he has trouble remembering techniques. But whenever someone uses something against him and then teaches him. He remembers the information instantly.

he’s wondering what this is happening.

In this video I talk about how humans are kind of reactionary and they love to problem solve.

I also share how as a White Belt I didn’t want to play from Full Guard as a former Wrestler. I explain how it wasn’t until after some stinging losses

If you’re in a similar situation regarding Brazilian Jiujitsu techniques and not remembering them. Then hope this video is useful to you.
