🥋 YOU DON’T NEED A FANCY GUARD TO FINISH.

Go back to the basics with Old-School BJJ: 3 Attacks From a Tight Guard.

Tight control. Simple attacks. Old-school pressure.

🥋 Armbar Trap → Guard Escape

Sometimes the best way to escape the guard is to let your opponent think they have an opening.

The key is timing.

Give them just enough opportunity to believe they can attack your arm. When they commit to the armbar:

1️⃣ Protect your arm — don’t let them isolate and extend it.
2️⃣ Post your hand behind their thigh/knee.
3️⃣ Stack their hips and take away their space.
4️⃣ Use the pressure to work your way around their legs.
5️⃣ Pass the guard.

The goal isn’t to fight the armbar once you’re caught. It’s to recognize the attack early, use their commitment against them, and turn their offense into your escape.

Make them think they have the arm. Then take the position away.

🥋 Train the technique. Master the timing.
