Exclusively focusing on the bottom game—a position in which most fighters feel vulnerable—this resource teaches students of jiu-jitsu and mixed–martial arts fighting how to develop hidden strengths and exploit the advantages of this seemingly weak position. With details and important information never before shown outside the Gracie family, the authors explore the techniques, tactics, and mindset necessary to win when fighting from the bottom—whether in an official sports jiu-jitsu competition or simply sparring with a partner. Average Rating:
 Rating: - Important InformationThis is a sport jiu-jitsu book;which means about one in every four techniques can be used in mma competition. I try to only buy sport bjj books when they are written by a former UFC/Pride champion. This book is for the total begginner. It's broken down as follows; 1)Rear Mount techniques-10 moves. 2)Mount techniques-20 moves. 3)Side Control techniques-22 moves. 4)Guard techniques-68 moves. Overall,this is an excellent book as Royce also links moves ... Read More Rating: - Great book to increase your grappling skillsThis is another great book by Royce Gracie. Unlike some other books written by the Gracie family this book focuses on knowledge and technique to be good at grappling and not just on strength. The book is full of hundreds of great techniques that really work quite well. I go to jujitsu class every day with a new technique and I keep frustrating my fellow classmates with my new knowledge. This book, and Royce's first book, are a must have for anyone that wants to increase their skill in grappling ...

About the second half of the book are moves from the guard while the first half is a mix of the other bottom positions. Its a great book! Rating: - Necessary Jiu-JitsuIf you want to improve your jiu-jitsu game through the use of books, there are three you should read. The first is Ultimate Fighting Techniques Volume 1 - a book that details the basics such as clinching and fighting from the top. The second is Gracie Submission Essentials by Helio and Royler Gracie - a book that is completely focused on submissions from almost every imaginable position. The third is this book, and I have found it to be the most useful for improving my skills. _Ultimate ... Read More Rating: - BJJ GuyThis book is extremely good. IMO it is even better than the first one. Definitely it is more advanced than Royler and Renzo's BJJ Theory and Technique, which is a good book and a complete guide of techniques. This book has a lot of stuff which other books are missing such as defenses and several options for each defense, which I find to be priceless. On the theory portion of the book, it is too brief and almost the same things as the first book, so there's nothing new to it, but regarding the techniques ... Read More |
