Think quick: what are some of the things that you are not doing right now – that you should be doing – and that would be extremely useful to your success in BJJ?
Yeah, using pressure probably wasn’t the first thing that came to mind.
However, utilizing pressure is the quickest way to fatigue your opponents in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. John Danaher explains further:
Probably the quickest method of fatiguing an opponent is to make them carry your weight inefficiently.
The most inefficient way to carry bodyweight is with your head and shoulders. Any position that forces an opponent to bear your weight on his head and shoulders will exhaust him over time.
Using pressure is almost always a sure-fire way to increase your success rate in Jiu-Jitsu.
