John Danaher Explains What To Do If You’re Lost In Jiu-Jitsu

John Danaher Explains What To Do If You’re Lost In Jiu-Jitsu

Do you ever feel like you’re lost during your Jiu-Jitsu practice? More specifically, when you roll, do you feel as if you don’t know what to do next?

What about competition?
Feeling like you don’t know what your next move should be – not just when you’re on the defensive, but also when on the offensive – can be debilitating.

However, John Danaher has the solution.
Whenever in doubt – go for the back!

Do you ever get lost in Jiu jitsu?
Not sure what to do next? Which move to select? Where to go next?

There’s only one answer that’s ALWAYS the right answer to any question in this game – GET BEHIND YOUR OPPONENT AND TAKE THE BACK.

Why? Danaher explains further:

If you engineered a game that only consisted of back takes from everywhere and nothing else you could have a stellar career on that alone.

Make sure a SIGNIFICANT part of your training revolves around this skill – it will never point you in the wrong direction and in almost every case get moving in the right direction regardless of where you are and how confusing your situation might be.
