12x World Champion: "Stop Playing Guard With Your Back On The Mat"

Are you an older BJJ practitioner who feels powerless when playing guard against bigger, heavier opponents? Do you get stuck in closed guard, smashed, and unable to launch any effective attacks? According to 12-Time Masters World Champion Roberto Godoi, there's a fundamental reason for this, and it has to do with how you're positioned on the mat. In this must-see BJJ instructional, Bernardo Faria sits down with the legendary Roberto "Gordo" Godoi to break down the exact guard system he developed to dominate the Masters divisions for over a decade. Godoi explains why playing with your back flat on the mat is a losing strategy for older grapplers and reveals his "Sit-Up Guard System" – a revolutionary approach that gets you off your back and into attacking position.
