Xande teaches how to force the half guard on your opponent when they are in the turtle position and looking to roll away from you to retain their guard. We use a knee pick to force the half guard as our opponent attempts to retain their guard and immediately trap their head and arm to set up for the mount or arm triangle submission.

Rico explains how to control the distance and attack your opponent from the z guard or half guard knee shield position with the rollover sweep or omoplata. Afterwards he explains that he switches between the knee shield, spider guard, butterfly guard, and classic open depending on the distance as well as whether his opponent is standing or on their knees. If your opponent is on both knees, a half spider or butterfly guard may make more sense while a classic open, spider guard, or de la riva guard will work more effectively against a standing opponent.Add to Favorites 1658 Remove From Favorites 3983 days ago

Often times when you go for the plan B rollover sweep, your opponent will post their leg on the ground making it hard to reach the leg to go for the plan B rollover sweep. In this situation, transition immediately and underhook the leg to go for a single leg to finish the sweep.Add to Favorites 1403 Remove From Favorites 4054 days ago
Dean demonstrates a toehold submission from the top half guard that can be used on your opponent when they have their legs triangled and are trying to stall the match. This submission works better when your opponent has their legs closed in a triangle as they may recover their guard altogether if you go for the submission when their legs are not tied up.Add to Favorites 1995 Remove From Favorites 4067 days ago
