As you begin your training in BJJ, You may be overwhelmed by the variety of techniques you learn in classes. Most people require around ten years to attain their black belt. And even after that, there's an infinite amount of learning. There's a good chance that, even if you've trained all your life, you'll never know everything there is to learn about Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.
If you've caught BJJ or the BJJ fascination, you might be tempted to attempt every amazing submission you've seen in UFC. However, there are different levels to this kind of stuff. It is better to master the basic methods and positions in BJJ before you attempt flying Omo Plata at the end of the class roll at the gym.
While your instructor might have their own set of teaching times to follow, you should at the very least look at some of the fundamental positions to help you be able to recognize them when you train.
Although this isn't an exhaustive list, Here are ten of the most effective BJJ methods for beginners:
1. Mount escape
Mount is among the most difficult situations to find yourself in. And while certain players will be kind and change positions when they realize that you're unable to get out of the position, Some will be content to stay in your position until the end of the round when you're rolling in the gym.
Once you've mastered the art of freeing yourself from the mount, you'll be able to open many other options for the remainder of the rolling.
2. Armbar
There are many ways to get arms in BJJ; however, the most effective ones to learn about are the mount armbar and the armbar from closed guard.
The latter is a joint submission and fairly safe and easy to master. Once you've mastered the mechanism behind armbars, you'll find it easy to apply the identical concepts to other submissions in Jiu-Jitsu.
3. Pendulum Sweep
Pendulum sweeps are performed in the closed guard position and are a simple method to reverse your position in case you do not want to start from the bottom.
This, along with other fundamental techniques in Jiu-Jitsu, is efficient even at the top standards of the game and paying attention to the finer points at the beginning of your journey into jiu-Jitsu will help you to be successful in this move for a long time to come.
4. Side control escape
Side control is one of the most difficult situations to get out of in jiu-Jitsu, particularly when you're playing with an opponent who is truly able you apply pressure. The escape from this position could help you regain control, allowing you to get back in control or create some distance to get back on your feet.
5. Toreando pass
The tornado is a great guard pass for both gi and no-gi, and you can apply the concepts from it to improve your advanced strategies for passing when you learn jiu-Jitsu throughout the years.
This technique will enable you to bypass your opponent's guard and open and prevent their opponent's legs from following them and hindering you in your efforts to control your opponent's side.
6. Rear naked choke
A rear naked choke has become among the most well-known techniques in Jiu-Jitsu. You've likely seen it (or an unprofessionalized version or variation) in TV or movie shows.
Before you attempt to apply this choke incorrectly, it's better to know how to apply it correctly so that you don't blow your arms to squeeze your trainer's head right out of their neck.
7. Closed guards break
Trying to force your trainers from within their guards is likely the biggest giveaway of your first week of Jiu-Jitsu. Injecting your fingers into their thighs to open their guards is the second biggest giveaway.
It's fine to admit that you're not a pro, but you and your trainers will enjoy a more enjoyable and successful time when you know the correct procedure to open the guard and then attempt to get through.
8. Triangle choke
When a triangle choke is properly secured and properly locked in, it's extremely hard to break out of. In addition, the triangle is very easy to transition into -- you can change through an armbar into a triangular position and back and start teaching your brain to think one step ahead of you as you move.
You will likely use this triangular leg shape frequently throughout your jiu-Jitsu training, so it's a good idea to be able to master it from the beginning.
9. Single-leg takedown
There are typically two methods a jiu-jitsu game can go to the ground. Either A pushes person B to the ground via a throw or takedown, and person A pulls guard, and the other player has to attempt to get past.
If you're looking to be sure that you're in the best position from the beginning, taking at least one takedown in your arsenal is the best option, and the single-leg takedown is perhaps the easiest and safest newbie to master.
10. Guard pull
Guard-pulling receives lots of criticism in jiu-Jitsu (even when many instances of guard-pulling happen at all levels of the game). However, it's an excellent method for rolling to mats, particularly when you're more comfortable working off your back instead of being a guard.
Knowing how to pull your guard is the right method; however, doing it in a jump can be very risky for you and your opponent. Sitting down could significantly disadvantage you (and result in lost points during a contest).
Even if you say you'll only ever use takedowns at the beginning of an attack, knowing how to pull guard safely is an important skill everyone new to the sport should be aware of.
It's not an exhaustive list of jiu-Jitsu strategies for newbies. However, knowing the fundamentals of these techniques can help you at the beginning of your journey to jiu-Jitsu so that you don't get stuck on the edge of your roll wondering, "What now?" Try one of these strategies to try next time you're rolling.
It's likely not the best, but it doesn't need to be. However, you'll be in the process of laying the foundations of your Jiu-Jitsu foundation.
