What position do you take when starting from the knees?

If the guy doesn't resist when I push him a little or drops back to play guard, then I stand up always but if I feel resistance when I push him, I just play guard.

ABSOLUTELY! I found that funny. Nice job.

But on topic, depending on the build an experience of my opponent I mix it up. I try to work my top and bottom game equally.

Most people at our gym start from butterfly, so i like to start with one leg posted and slice up the middle to stuff the butterfly and try and pass, worse case i get caught in half guard and work from there.

If the other guy sits I go one knee up, if he stays on his knees I sit.

I go off what my opponent does. Either game works for me

i just pull guard so i can practice sweeps and stuff.
