Modified Mount – Counter the Headlock Reversal

In this video, we’ll show you what to do when you’re in the mounted position and your opponent on the bottom grabs a headlock to try and reverse you. Instead of fighting blindly or getting rolled over, we’ll transition into the Modified Mount, a safer and more stable position that helps you shut down the reversal attempt while maintaining control. From there, we’ll work through the details on how to free yourself from the headlock, stabilize your base, and continue attacking without losing position. A simple adjustment that can save you from a very frustrating reversal.
