You’ll Use This Butterfly Guard To Heel Hook Setup All The Time

The Butterfly Guard is great for setting up Leg Lock attacks!

The butterfly guard is one of the simplest, yet most effective open guard in BJJ. It can be used against opponents of any size as it utilizes the strongest part of our body-the legs, to pull, lift, and off-balance the opponent. Up to date, the butterfly guard is regarded as one of the most effective guards, considering how you can effortlessly lift and sweep heavier opponents above you while in a supinated position.

It starts off in a seated open guard position, and as you approach your opponent or vice-versa, it opens up the possibility of applying hooks along with other upper body control techniques. These hooks can be partnered with various grips which helps take control of your opponent’s upper body; hence, making it easier to pull your opponent closer to you.

Butterfly Guard is one of the best guards to play in Jiu-Jitsu – simply because of the number of techniques that are available from it!
