Half Guard Strategic Gameplan

This is amazing stuff

This video changed my life. I think the half guard stuff is finally clicking. I love you

This is perfect. This type of video is way better than what I have seen from other creators. This is closer to the training we do in my gym.

Who else clicked this thinking it was danaher

I really like the breakdown and repetition style in this video. Really helps me visualize the details I've been needing work on.

Wow, this is some quality content - well done.

Great video, thank you 🙏🏻

A superior video; instead of repetition of one move, this looks at various situations created in the half guard. i cant believe how much ive gotten from this thanks coach.

I just love this type of video.

Great video. I’m 62 just finished my 3 class. This stuff is incredibly

This is a totally amazing video. Just what I was looking for.

Beautiful, effective, basic half guard game gameplan here. I work on the little details of my half guard game in privates regularly.

Great video!

Oh man.. I remember seeing you go through a crucible on Roy's channel. Man I like the way you explain things. Submitted!😁 Get it?

Brilliant video!

Awesome Video. Please keep them coming

Really awesome video.

because of your instructional videos my favorite position is half guard and i'm killing it 😂❤thanks again ☝️🙏🫵🏻🫡

what a fantastic tutorial. Thank you!

This is beautiful. It was all I was looking for. Now, I just have to watch it several times until it gets inside my head. Thanks! Oss!

This is nice, THANKS!

I am 45 and just started BJJ with my daughter. I love your approach and explanations to your videos. I am really enjoying what I learn and love being part of something bigger than me. Great stuff! Keep ‘em coming!

Thank you Rick for all your efforts to share! Much love

Excellent overview. I appreciate you taking the time to break this down for us. As a blue belt, I find myself in the half guard often. The issue for me are larger competitors and always getting their head above mine. This provides some excellent ideas to build off of. Thank you!

Rick thanks for yr amazing help. 50 yr old white belt beginning the journey with my 16yr old son.
Totally enthused from Australia

Love your content! Its been a big help in my bjj journey! Keep it up and take care!

👍👌🤙

Thank you for this! More positional strategies plz?

Absolute Gold!!,

Really smooth, effective and tight. Thank you!

Thanks for posting this lesson. Much appreciated!!

This channel is awesome!

Happy holidays! Thanks for all the hard work and great content.

I love the series concept. I could watch this over and over.

Another great vid, professor. It's obvious you put a lot of thought into prep and production. Quick question -- Do you prefer the low knee shield to high? I suck at half guard, but have always played it with a high knee shield because I feel like it's a better frame for absorbing top pressure, but I get no pinch. Do you prefer a low approach because it allows for a better pinch? Thanks again!

This is brilliant. I can't wait to train and implement these.

Great video thanks.

Your videos are exceptionally well done and much appreciated. Very artistic, organized and to the point. Thank you.

This is great! Love half guard and always looking for ways to improve it. Thanks.

This is really nice and realistic

This is a fantastic overview of the half guard both defensively, and transitioning into offensive techniques from bad starting positions. Great video.

I really like that sweep that you use when Jordan whizzers, but another I like better is more a Leite move of continuing to move into coyote and then just escaping the whizzer and continuing to move to back. If that doesn't work then diving for the original sweep or deep half seems to work nice. Most of the time though if you've reaped their near leg enough you'll get back.
This is super cool though. I'm a half guard player and love your channel :)

Excellent video, I’m hoping that you plan to do a similar video on closed guard and all the other major position.

Thank you

Great, thanks for Details, and all vievs

Thanks for yet another brilliantly put together instructional video Rick, you've got such a great way of both shooting and presenting these. I look forward to every one and hope to get up to 3rd Way in the not so distant future.

Good wrap up but arguably anyone above 3-stripe white belts should auto whizzer on your way to the dogfight position as otherwise it's obvious they'll get their back taken.

Hey Rick, another awesome video. Good for everyone, but great for "old man" jiu jitsu. Not enough people chain techniques in my opinion. I really like the "do this, if he does that" and so on approach.... 2-3 options from each of the most common positions is great for recreational jiu-jitsu folks like me. Thanks again.

please keep making these. This helped me so much! I go
to my back in half guard all the time.
Now I’m not gonna do that lol The details are so important.

Awesome video. I love playing lockdown from half guard. Pretty much the only game I have against bigger guys. Didn’t know there were so many different options from half. I feel like I’m always flat on my back…
