Your Next Five Moves

It’s probably not actually 5 moves; this is more about being preemptive. Let’s say that you know someone is going break open your closed guard. It is better to break it open yourself and position yourself in a way that you can be successful than to let them have total control. This may be confusing because I often talk about not letting people do things to you, but the path of least resistance is sometimes acceptance. By acknowledging that I have been beat in a particular situation I can sometimes set myself up for success by being a step ahead. The first step is acknowledging you have a problem, always.
