This is an excerpt from The Submission Formula instructional, the entire goal of which is to make your submissions tighter, more powerful, and much more effective. Rob Biernacki did an awesome job putting it together!
Can someone provide any more info on specifically what it means to "break the alignment"? I can kind of guess from watching the video, but I've never heard that term before. I assume it's getting head/neck/shoulders/hips no longer in a straight line?
If you look up the podcast bjj mental models on Spotify (a great listen for any bjj practitioner). There very first episode explains what he means by alignment. In a nutshell alignment refers to your posture, structure and base. And the idea is you want to break your oponents posture, prevent them from basing, and attack there structure using your structure while trying to maintain and defend your own posture, structure with an effective base.
People say you learn the most about BJJ as a black belt. As a new blue belt this might look intimidating. Eventually you get to a point where you have seen a lot. You know techniques with similar parts here and there. For me, Rob takes those parts and puts them together conceptually. Being that he is building on a base knowledge its easier to grasp. For me its his conceptual approach and depth of detail that I find beneficial.
Why would you sacrifice the strongest position (mount) to go to your back where your opponent has a better chance at resistance or escaping? Surely stay on top and finish the arm bar no?
@@TaseTea I'm full aware that back control is the strongest position. I'm referring to this scenario where being on top in an armbar position is way stronger and easier to finish than being on your back where all of your weight and pressure is now on transferred to your legs whereas before you could use your whole body on the person's upper torso to pin and get the armbar.
His terminology is incredibly annoying, and cringey. "leever, leever, arc, power production, wedge, psi, fulcrum"? I actually had to remove it from a resource list i use, because everyone I show it to is like "WTF?"
The language is called Danaherish. It's like reading Shakespeare or reading the King James version of the Bible, once you get used to it you don't notice it anymore.
@@taymerelane Im sure people in prison get used to getting rammed up the ass, but im free, and I dont want to go through the asspain of getting used to this guys vernacular.
Fulcrums and levers make sense mechanically, but I can't stand this blanket term of "Alignment" it's used like some chiropractor, non scientific medicine talk. If something is "Aligned" it is relative to something else. "Breaking his alignment" -in relation to what?

Man I needed this video. People in my mount sit up like frankenstein or the undertaker when I go for an arm bar. .
Ong they rise frm the dead as soon as i rip the arm😂😂
This guy literally breaks it down to a science 🤔 I’m gonna study it and work on this bc I have done a lot of attempted arm bars lol 🧐
Some engineering shi

Hadn't rolled for a long while and had COMPLETELY forgotten about the s mount part, making all my arm bars fail.
Thanks for the video
Such a great video!! A ton of information broken down for those that are new to it to understand.
Brilliant. My partner is always preventing my arm bar. These tips will come in handy. Thanks 🤟🏼
This guy has a good teaching style
great video and instruction, I need all the outside of class i can help since in class i usually look like an idiot
This is beautiful.
Good job
Cool, I was just thinking about what I should do about my mount attacks
Well, this would be a logical place to start!
beautiful
High level and effective
Too good as usual
Abhishek Sajwan thanks!

Correct assumption it’s misaligning the spine/posture

How do you understand so much detail?

Well, the bottom person can just sit up from there, as there is pressure from the legs, no?
Why would you sacrifice the strongest position (mount) to go to your back where your opponent has a better chance at resistance or escaping? Surely stay on top and finish the arm bar no?
Back control is stronger than mount, and you have to leave because you need to use your body weight to fight the arm

@@sebekkha You mean delivering an arm-bar while still being in mount?
Being on your back gives you a better base to apply force from than if you were staying in mount.
@@pothos89 Right, also the balance is difficult to keep if you attempt while staying in mount.
Psi :) i just love bjj lingo..

See if this works better for you- "SMASH! Then jitsu! Then armbar him bro!"

@@bimotavdue4129relative to your hips, your shoulders, your head. When you’re square you’re aligned.
