Inclination

​If you feel pulled to a particular technique in grappling, explore it. There are so many resources out there for you to watch other people execute what you are trying to do. My advice is watch it happen in competition. I think one of the most helpful things I’ve done is watch less static content and start watching more competition footage. If you’re not someone who translates visual information well maybe that isn’t the path, but it’s worth a shot. It may also come from an unexpected source, if you’re an average sized adult male, but you like to crab ride, rooster weight females might factor into your tape study quite a bit. I watch Eric Munis and Mayssa Bastos all the time, but I look nothing like them, and they look nothing like each other. There's a reason you are drawn to certain techniques, go out and make your grappling yours.
