  • @lazarjevtic1252
    @lazarjevtic1252 Před 12 dny +1

    Love these videos! I really like that you tackle the fundamentals to address different situations instead of just teaching one movement. I find that a lot of BJJ youtubers tend to teach a single movement and don't address any sort of counter movement which makes it hard to apply in live rolling. Thank you!

    • @JonThomasBJJ

    Hey, Jon. What about visualizing your steps. When passing guard and thinking about what to do next. That’s where I struggle.

  • @ubershmekel
    @ubershmekel Před 7 dny

    Thank you, Jon. I'm a blue belt and just had a big aha moment related to this. I rolled yesterday with a brown belt and he was giving me side control, north south, kimura, whatever I wanted, and a few seconds later he armbars me. I thought I was in a good position but I guess I wasn't pinning. He was monitoring exactly what he needed to allow himself to move. So I retract my endorsement of "position before submission" and declare my allegiance to "pin to win". There are too many in-between-positions and I can get to a position but not be in control. So I don't want to base my game around getting to a position. I'll focus on what I can pin and progressively try to pin more.

    • @JonThomasBJJ

    @retro6652 Před 12 dny

    Hi coach, does your advice change at all for smaller individuals? When viewing your technique in side control, you seem so far over to the far side that I imagine a guy like me would almost 100% get "big boy" rolled. Thank you again for the amazing content!

    • @JonThomasBJJ
      @JonThomasBJJ  Před 12 dny

      I weigh 68 kilos or 150 lbs and I use it on 100 kilo people all the time. It’s actually much harder to roll you when you are far over them because you can just post on the mat. You usually get rolled from being too tight and riding in your arm controls trying to cross face, if you have chest pressure you will have more free arms to prevent from getting rolled.
