One of the most dangerous times in jiu-jitsu is when you’re in the guard with opponent standing above you and no way to control him.
In this situation he’s only one explosive move away from blasting past your legs and establishing a dominant position.
To minimise the chance of him passing here (and to keep yourself safe) you don’t need amazing reflexes, you don’t need incredible flexibility, and you don’t need every muscle in your body to be 100% fast twitch muscle…
You just need need to get your grips.
Once you have your grips correctly established you’ve made it 10 times more difficult for your opponent to sprint his way to side control, and you’re also able to start your own attack sequence.
In this detailed video Jon Thomas shares some high level strategy about this initial engagement phase and then 3 high percentage ways to win the initial grip battle. These are sure-fire ways to to from no grips to great grips.
Win the grip battle and you’ll probably win the match.
