Closed guard can be a tough position to get out of and when your opponent has a dangerous guard, then getting out quickly is important. Many guard players are great at breaking posture forcing you to continue to fight up into a good position.

I have found the “Log Splitter” guard break to be a great way to stay safe in the closed guard and also get out of this dangerous position.

One little mistake and will be getting submitted by armbars, triangles, omoplatas, wrist locks, and collar chokes.

But there is a simple way to shut down all of those closed guard attacks and eventually regain your posture back up, or even pass straight to side control.

Take a look at these fundamental concepts that every BJJ white belt should know.
