I have been playing around with Dela riva guard with some lasso guard sprinkled in. Great way for me to off balance my training partner and sweeping them.

for me definitely self defense! In my humble opinion once We develop a solid understanding of the fundamentals principles of base, connection and distance management that can carry over to the sport side.. I’ll watch guys like Roger Gracie, Kron and Rickson Gracie and watch them beat guys with fundamentals.

Question of the week. If you could push the reset button and go back to the very beginning of your jiu Jitsu training. What if anything would you do differently?

I would make it a point to practice the technique’s being taught each week on both sides Meaning the dominant side where we are most comfortable executing the technique and than switching to the less dominant side which for me was always a struggle.

Hey everyone I’ll be showing a very effective way to pass your partners guard using the knee cut. This has been my favorite pass or the last couple of years. I’ll show you how to handle the knee shield and other obstacles that may arise when you’re trying to execute this pass. See you Tuesday night.

For me it would be chaining closed guard submissions together.

Here’s the question of the week. How do you train to stay calm and composed under extreme pressure, like in bad positions? Getting smashed or pretty close to being submitted.

I have read “Breathe a Life of Flow” Rickson Gracie. “32 Principles” by Rener Gracie. Movies “Choke“ “Born a Champion” “Jiu Jitsu vs The World” “ROLL Jiu Jitsu in SoCal”and every film on FloGrappling “The Year of Mica Galvao’s Quest for The Super Grand Slam”. Just came a few weeks ago was really good.

Pre training do a quick mobility warm up to check in with my body to see where I’m tight. Starting with my wrists and shoulders and neck working through the spine open up my hips, my knees and ankles. Post workout I always rehydrate then I’ll go in my sauna for 15- 20 minutes and follow that up with a cold shower or cold plunge occasionally.
