Worm Guard Back Attack Part 2
As with any technique in Jiu Jitsu, when you attack with the overhead sweep, you should be prepared for your opponent to defend.
The way your opponent will defend the overhead sweep is by sinking their weight down. If they do this, you can transition straight to their back.
