My training partner is having success striking while inside my lockdown.
He has good flexibility in his hips, his base is strong and is stronger than me. Sits back on my lockdown and unloads.
My coach tells me to transition to butterfly guard or all the way out and play an open guard. As I am not having much luck against this guy.
What do you guys think? Any advice?
If you clinch with an overhook or underhook and glue your head to his body, he should not be able to strike you.
dogfight to powder keg
Perhaps if he sits back there is an opportunity for a berimbolo type situation on the outside to take his back?
full guard
watch a Maia study to see how he times his under hook punch with the opponents strikes and uses this to sweep or get up (like dogfight)
Thanks for the responses guys. I will try them all and report back here. I used butterfly today to some success.
if he sits back then he swept himself why cant you pull off the oldschool?
Boom. So much this :)Quote:

Especially if you don't have a strong upperbody control you need to use it to get in and clinch.
Thank you so much for the advice Kevin.
