The Closed Guard Passing Video That Will Keep On Giving

Спорт

#guardpass #jeanjacquesmachado #bjj
To pass the guard you need to open the closed guard first. No way around an opponent's legs if the legs aren't separated to begin with. Watch this video multiple times, really digest all the nuance that is presented in this video. It will improve your passing game.

    Excellent showcase of how points in martial arts fucks up the whole thing. In reality the guy on bottom is happy the guy on top wont try to kill him and stays upright. But in point system the guy on top is winning because he is in dominant position, so the guy on bottom has to work. up-side-down world.

    2 concepts I learned early just from his books are combining moves, such that a guard pass leads directly to a submission, and a much more flexible notion of movement on top, lots of reversing and scurrying about..very creative on the subs, like he grabs your arm in mount then falls off you and slaps on a triangle as you rush to the top. Always a treat, helps you think and fight.

    This video is a gem and Professor Machado is truly legendary. He is such an amazing example of working with what you have and never allowing yourself to have excuses. When I first started watching his videos years ago I had no idea he had a disability and it took me years to find that out. I hyper extended my thumb a year ago and taped my hand like a spatula for a couple months before rolling. When I wanted to complain about it I would think of the professor and be inspired to stop my cry baby mindset and work with what I got.

    This is partly due to human nature and partly due to gyms pandering to the requests of students for the ultimate ends of turning a profit. It’s up to us as instructors to ensure that the importance of basics are properly understood and engrained into our students and (as we all remains students always) we need to always train the basics regardless of how experienced we may consider ourselves to be.

    "Posture up!" Hearing that during a match, unless it's a person who generally knows to do so and how to do so but seems to have underprioritized it at that moment, is almost like opening up a cookbook to a page that just says Beef Wellington at the top. Next page just says Duck L'orange at the top. Next one just says French Onion Soup at the top. Next just says Chicken Marsala at the top. I.e. without the 'how', the 'what' is practically useless.
