App Description

A WORLD CHAMPION'S NO GI STRATEGIES AND TACTICS THAT WORKS AGAINST BIGGER, STRONGER OPPONENTS

This is the tenth app in the How to Defeat the Bigger, Stronger Opponent series.

This series is designed to give you the techniques and strategies that are especially effective against opponents who are much bigger, stronger, and more muscular than you. You'll also learn how to stay safe and avoid injury on the mats when rolling with heavier grapplers.

This app, Strategies and Tactics for No Gi, covers the techniques, strategies, and tactics that work when the gi comes off and you enter into the world of submission grappling.

BJJ black belt and world champion Brandon 'Wolverine' Mullins competes at the highest level both in traditional BJJ and in no-gi competitions. He's learned that two areas have their similarities, but also different enough so that people get confused, make major mistakes, and need guidance to really feel effective and efficient on the mat.

This Q&A based app addresses the most common questions about modifying your BJJ game so it works both with and without the gi. It will help you become a far more effective no gi grappler and avoid many of the most common submission grappling mistakes.
