Xande teaches three different ways to set up the triangle submission from the closed guard. This submission is named the triangle because of the way your legs create a trianglular shape that wraps around your opponent's arm and head. By squeezing your legs together from this position, it applies pressure to your opponent's carotid artery and cuts off the blood circulation to their brain.Add to Favorites 2693 Remove From Favorites 4071 days ago

Xande teaches two basic but highly effective sweeps that you can use to sweep your opponent from the closed guard. The closed guard is a great position for beginners. Your opponent will have to break your closed guard before being able to pass. This will provide you with extra time to think about what to do next. As a white belt, it helps to start with small goals and celebrate the victories of achieving these goals. For example, for one week you could choose to play closed guard with the goal of sweeping your opponent with the hip bump or pendulum sweep while not letting your opponent pass your closed guard. The next week your goal could be to try to submit your opponent from the closed guard by combining the hip bump sweep with the kimura or guillotine.
