Guard Flashcards

Q
How do you sweep an opponent in your guard when he grabs your same-side sleeve and plants his same-side foot in order to stand up?
A
Plant your opposite-side foot on the floor and extend your same-side leg up and back under his armpit as he plants his foot, which will cause him to tip over

Q
How do you perform the “flare leg” guard sweep?
A
Grab both sleeves, bring your knees up in between opponent’s arms and flare your knees out and down over his arms, increase your leverage by keeping the soles of your feet high and against the opponent’s torso; wait until he attempts to roll you over, then force him to topple over with your feet
