What are some good ones?
I was looking at Mario Sperry's Submission Grappling.
I want to buy just one at the moment and focus on guard passes.
Anyone have opinions?

sherdog.com they have a tone of instructional there, ask the guys on the forum there they should be able to help you out.
Mario Sperry is a great choice he is a great fighter
Thanks
dig your elbows into their inner-thigh - that will break the closed guard
once broken, fight out one of the legs and try to get your knee passed his inner-thigh
also, you could try just standing up - allthough, as you know this is very dangerous - once you stand, immediatly take one of his legs to keep him grounded (his closed guard will immediatly break)
- if he keeps closed, pick him up by his gui or clasp your hands to the back of his head and slam him
look up mmatracker

Digging your elbow into his inner thigh is very dangerous to do as well but the safer route. This opens you up for a text book triangle.
That is what I was doing...it works pretty well, you just have to be cautious and try not to use too much energy. I was wanting to find more, it is really hard to pass a guard. I usually bust my ass trying to pass a guard and then once I finally get it (side mount), the person just regains guard and it is very frustrating. I guess it is ok though, as long as I am not getting submitted or swept.Quote:

It takes time to learn how to pass the guard so dont worry the busting your ass part is natural
Thanks for the advice, I can say that the BJJ school I am going to is a great one and I cannot wait to see how much progress I can make. I would roll for 6 hours a day if I had the oppotunity...it is a lot of fun!

Yeah, I would like to get into Sambo...but there really is not any Sambo schools anywhere.Quote:
