The post The Best Armbar (Arm Lock) From The Mount by Dave Camarillo appeared first on jitseasy.

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!

The post Jorge Masvidal on rolling with Marcelo Garcia: He is on his own planet, never felt that in my life appeared first on jitseasy.

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)

The post Dead Weight Rolling & Knee Cut Pass Discussion appeared first on jitseasy.

How intense should your BJJ training be inside the gym when you’re wanting to prepare for a Brazilian Jiu-jitsu competition or possibly MMA? This is today’s question.

In this video I touch on the topic of intensity 1st and the idea that you can’t really know the intensity of training until you experience it in person.

When you compete you essentially have a license to fight another person in the agreed upon rules and it’s completely ok. This isn’t true anywhere else in society.

I experienced these conditions in Wrestling tournaments, Brazilian Jiujitsu competitions and MMA fights. And I can tell you that from my personal experience, when you’re competing you’re tapped into an intensity that just isn’t present in normal conditions.

At the very least it’s hard to do.

From there I briefly talk about how you might prepare for a competition using a mixture of intense and lighter training to allow the body to recover.

I hope you enjoy the video!

This video came from one of our BJJ open mats a while ago.

Jess (my girlfriend) has been training Brazilian Jiu-jitsu off and on for a number of years.

I was in a particularly silly mood as you’ll see during the roll.

The video doesn’t give away any mind boggling new techniques or anything. But I figured I’d share it because it does show something important.

PLAY.

While there is a time to be serious and hard with our BJJ training. It’s also valuable to be have fun and just play around. The rolling doesn’t have to be for all out progress or some new skill. It can be simply just playing around.

In mammals play is often how we are wired to learn. And it’s only as we humans get older that play is frowned upon as a mode of learning.

Anyways, I’ll get off my soap box. Enjoy the video!
