The 2 on 1 works best when you’re to the side of your opponent, as a result, a common reaction for your opponent is to try and square up to you.

One of the Uchi Mata is one of the most recognisable throws in Judo. However, it can be difficult to execute in Wrestling / No Gi due to the lack of control on the far side of your opponent.

Unlike Judo and Gi Jiu Jitsu, wrestling or No Gi offer far few gripping opportunities. Due to this lack of strong gripping opportunities, many people find it difficult to secure a takedown.

This is part two of the Lapel Closed Guard System and the series of attacks you should look for if your opponent escapes the Brabo grip.

 

This is part one of the Lapel Closed Guard System and the first series of attacks you should look for when using the system.

Without the Lapel control, the star sweep can be a little hit or miss as you give up control. 

However, with the Lapel you keep control, and all your {...}

One of the great things about the Lapel Closed Guard is that it exposes your opponent's elbows. I’m Closed Guard this means the Omoplata can be easily set up. {...}

The final way your opponent will try to defend the Williams Guard is by stepping or jumping over your body. 
This is the reason Eddie Bravo took the Williams Guard {...}

Last week, we worked the basic set up, controls, and finish for the Williams Guard. As I said before, this is a highly effect guard for either No Gi or MMA (works well Gi too) {...}

We're going to cover this sweep in this plan plus how to reroll to the omoplata and to submit. 

Jumping over your body is one of the most common omoplata counters your partner will attempt. 
You can stop this by blocking your opponents hip the moment {...}

This makes it much easier to get you hips higher than the {...}
