BJJ Naming Idea: Split Half Guard into Two Positions

Honestly this has been a huge revolution for me recently .

It wasn't untill I watched Gordon's passing dvd that I realised that half guard is really a multitude of smaller guards put together .

Getting to "chest to chest " half guard is amazing for passing , it's now where I have structured a whole game plan with the thanks of danaher and Gordon .

It's probably old stuff and not new but I've never seen it accurately described in either seminars or instructionals before .kinda what I find with a lot of the really good instructionals is that they take concepts and moves that are someone deemed to be obvious but they go into the actual techniques and moves more efficiently.

For having such a douche personality, some of Gordon's content is incredible. This recent video he put out on the mount is so simple yet so effective (timestamped):

I've got the whole mount set and it's really, really changing the way I think about the position and I'm only halfway through it, but even on a first flick through it there's already some stuff I'm getting to work for me in rolling.
