    Keep your chin tucked if someone gets your back.

    Shrimp a lot to keep the guy on top off balance.

    Learn to use and regain guard properly.

    Try and stay tight and solid when on the bottom.



    Really the first things you need to nail are the guard and side control.

    Cheers Steve apparently I scramble really well but I find good position then have nothing to eNd fights with- time served I guess...

    Ju jitsu in a gi is ****ing solid- the coach wrapped his gi round my head at one point I think! Felt clueless!!!

    Great sport you guys have, as an avid boxer and mma dismisser I've been converted!

    Patience is the key really. If you don't know how to end fights at the moment then concentrate on holding position.

    The armbar is a pretty simple to learn (hard to master and get as tight as you can get it) technique that can give you something to at least threaten with.

    Awesome Jeff. Try not to thrash about or go 100% when you are not really sure of the moves.

    The moves that you get shown, the basics wither it be an armbar from guard or an escape from side control or whatever drill it i.e. practice it with varying degrees of resistance.

    Who is your coach?

    pick a few subs/techniques you like and keep trying to go for it until you get good at it, then pick another.

    when you start you realize how deep it is and start to get what fighter pilots call helmet fire. try and keep it simple.

    Why are you curious? :lol:

    Ive quoted this so you cant edit it later too when you realise you sound like that old perv dude from Family Guy :thumbsup

    EDIT While you are at it, since you are a fine example of alpha male hetrosexuality Joe.Boxer, why dont you travel down to Jeff's Boxing gym and imply he's a homo for enjoying a fighting discipline to his face

    Im sure we'll find out if you can back up the constant **** you are talking about glass jaws if you do
