Day #156 - Spider Lasso to Triangle (2 Entries) | Houzn BJJ 365

Professor Rafaello Oliveira shows two clean paths from Spider Lasso straight into the triangle—same guard, different reactions. If you like attacking without forcing, this is a high-percentage concept: control the sleeve, manage distance with your legs, and turn their posture mistake into a fast finish. Try both entries in sparring and notice which one fits your opponent’s base and grips. Watch the full short instructional, save it for open mat, and send it to a training partner who plays spider guard. Follow the BJJ 365 series for daily techniques you can actually use.

🔥 Effort Over Winning (and Why Failure Helps)

JR trains with a mindset a lot of adults need: effort matters more than winning. He believes failure is the first step to mastery, and frustration is just part of learning. That’s not “positive thinking”—it’s how you stick with something long enough to actually get good. From the outside, people think Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is just learning how to fight. JR says it couldn’t be further from the truth. It’s patience, problem-solving, and respect. His rule is “always treat your opponents with respect,” because the quiet person might be a savage, and the ripped guy might be brand new.

Day #155 - 360 Spider Lasso to Triangle | Lasso Guard Triangle Finish | Houzn BJJ 365

Professor Rafaello Oliveira breaks down a smooth, high-percentage chain: 360° Spider Lasso into a Triangle finish. This is the kind of guard-to-submission connection that feels effortless when your angles, timing, and control are right—and frustrating for anyone trying to posture out. If your lasso guard gets stalled, this is a clean way to create rotation, force reactions, and close the loop into a tight triangle. Try it in drilling, then test it in light rounds and see how fast it upgrades your guard attacks. Follow our BJJ 365 series for daily instructionals and sharper Jiu Jitsu year-round.

Day #154 - Spider Lasso to Omoplata (2 Entries) | Houzn BJJ 365

Learn two clean ways to connect Lasso + Spider into the Omoplata with Professor Rafaello Oliveira. The concept is simple: use the lasso to slow their posture and reactions, then use spider pressure to control distance, open the angle, and force predictable defenses—so the omoplata becomes a high-percentage finish or a strong sweep threat. If you like active guard and chained attacks, this is a must-add to your game. Try it in drilling, then rewatch to catch the timing cues. Follow the BJJ 365 series for more daily upgrades.

Day #153 - Open Guard Control: Lasso + Spider Drill for Sweeps & Retention | Houzn BJJ 365

Professor Rafaello Oliveira’s Lasso Spider Drill is built to make your open guard feel “sticky”: stronger grips, better off-balancing, and faster transitions into sweeps or submissions. If your lasso feels loose or your spider control breaks under pressure, this drill helps you connect your legs and hands as one unit and keep your partner in your tempo. Try it for a few rounds, then watch how your guard retention and attacking confidence level up. Want more daily, practical Jiu Jitsu? Follow our BJJ 365 series and save this one to drill next class.

Day #152 - Straight Ankle Lock From Standing w/ Lapel Grip | Houzn BJJ 365

Professor Justin Hembree shows a slick straight ankle lock from standing that uses the Gi lapel as a built-in “handle.” The big idea is simple: loop your arm around and under the ankle, connect to the lapel, and use that leverage to keep their foot pinned while you finish with control—not brute force. It’s a smart option when you want a fast submission threat without dropping into a long leg entanglement. Try it with a partner at low intensity and prioritize tight positioning.

Day #151 - Straight Ankle Lock Finish Upgrade: Heel Control + RNC Pressure | Houzn BJJ 365

When your opponent tries to push back and muscle out, most Straight Ankle Locks fall apart. Professor Justin Hembree shows a clean variation that fixes it fast: grab the heel to kill the space, shut down the pushback, and finish with Rear Naked Choke mechanics—applied to the ankle. Simple concept, big payoff, and it clicks immediately once you feel the control. Try it in your next round and notice how quickly the finish shows up. Want more high-percentage details like this?

Day #149 - Straight Ankle Lock Variation: Hide Your Feet for a Tighter Finish | Houzn BJJ 365

If your straight ankle lock keeps getting defended because they can find and peel your feet, this is for you. Professor Justin Hembree shows a clean variation: hide your feet behind the opponent’s legs to take away space, reduce their ability to kick free, and keep your control tighter while you finish. It’s a small adjustment that makes your pressure feel heavier and your attacks harder to read—especially against people with solid, “standard” defenses. Try it in live rounds and pay attention to how much longer you can keep the bite. Follow the BJJ 365 series for more quick, high-percentage details.
