MG's books show the counters for these issues. Remember that this is a sitting guard. If your opponent steps in, you can take the single leg, or go to X-guard if you really want to go to your back. Getting your feet held down is more of a basic, open guard issue that you should learn to counter before using this type of guard.
TheLastRancher how's living in NY? Did you have trouble when you moved there? How much is your rent? Was it hard to find a place to live? Where do you work and how do you make money?
i just don't undestand tha butterflie guard, when i try it either they step in the miidle and flatten me or hold my fet down and walk around, then i have to flatten myselfe
albusai Garcia has a video on how to avoid the opponent grabbing your feet/ankles to control. He says to simply look were the hand is open. Then kinda kick and pull your foot away. One way to counter them stepping in the middle is to push away and scoot back. Basing with your other hand he shows that to. Try also circling your foot back inside their legs. So they're not in the middle but on the outside.

Watching these techniques, you begin to understand that the best jiu jitsu players are always thinking 2-3 step ahead of their opponent.
Yup...I'm a Marcelo Garcia video addict now.
Awesome techniques.
Please keep posting videos.
man he is so fast its amazing i still think he is the best in the world
It would be a good drill to isolate that explosive 💣 sit-up motion as it come's in handy for alot of moves...
Congrats to Marcelo on his ADCC championship win!!!

4:07 how quick does he sit up!
its a tough guard, I have similar problems...a big key is to protect your feet with your hands (from what I'm told by those better than myself)
