The High Percentage Podcast High Percentage

Does conventional wisdom hold up? We asked the hive mind of the internet what they thought was the top performing submission for white belts. They were dead wrong.

What are the trends we saw at ADCC ? Are leglocks still at the apex of the meta? Is guard passing dead? We go into all of the details about what the top level competitors are doing this year.

Today, we're diving into the "Olympics of Submission Grappling" will the optimal strategies in this very unique ruleset. We also look at data regarding the top submissions of ADCC, and why scoring that first point is so important.

We get it. Data on the guards and sweeps that competitors use would be invaluable. And while we've done some, there are some natural roadblocks to recording these things. But the silver lining is, there may be a lesson for us in the explanation.

IBJJF, and often our teammates and coaches, tell us what positions we should be striving for. The hierarchy puts mount and the back at the top. They're the default endgame of BJJ. Until they're not. Truthfully, as we progress in our journey we find our own endgame positions where we are likely to submit opponents. How can we build a game around achieving endgame positions?
