Gaining an advantage in Jiu-Jitsu

Gaining an advantage in Jiu-Jitsu

One of the biggest way to win is by gaining an advantage in Jiu-Jitsu. If you make an opponent think your doing one thing and then do another, you’ll always have an advantage. There is more to combat sports than technique. Technique must be housed within tactics and among tactics, surprise and subterfuge are king. Whenever you’re sparring, try to sell your opponent the idea that you’re about to attempt something different from what you actually intend to do. If an opponent has any skills and experience he will quickly ascertain what you’re attempting and counter; but when you can fool him as to what’s about to happen his defense will be in the wrong direction and by the time he corrects himself you’ll have gotten the breakthrough. Deceiving your opponent is a skill like any other. If you don’t practice it you won’t be good at it. So incorporate it it into your daily training like everything else you want to excel at and you will see for yourself how much it adds to your game.
