hip bump and kimura flow

hip bump sweep and kimura as paired threats from closed guard. reading reactions and transitioning between sweeps, submissions, and positional advances as they defend.

Flow outline

1. Closed Guard Hip Bump Kimura System

   • If they frame, from here, the foundational position where you set closed guard and initiate the attack sequence. from here, you'll use the double arm swim posture break to create openings for either the kimura grip or hip bump setup, forcing your opponent to react and reveal their defensive tendencies

2. Kimura

   • If they frame, often secure the kimura grip from closed guard when your opponent places hands on the mat. position gives you multiple attack options: you can finish the submission directly, transition to sweeps if they defend, or use it to advance to better positions based on how they react to the shoulder lock threat. switch if it stalls

3. Hip Bump Sweep

   • execute the hip bump sweep when your opponent leans back with no hands on your body. sweep capitalizes on their poor posture and weight distribution, allowing you to come on top or transition to submissions if they post out to defend

4. Hip Bump To Triangle

   • Once set, when your opponent leans to the side during the hip bump attempt, transition immediately to the triangle choke. sequence flows naturally as their defensive movement creates the space needed to secure the leg entanglement and finish the submission

5. Choi Bar

   • From here, when your opponent grabs their own hip to defend the kimura, transition to the choi bar submission. leg entanglement attack capitalizes on their defensive hand placement, creating a powerful leg lock opportunity from the closed guard position

6. Roll On Top

   • Key detail: usually when your opponent rolls to escape the kimura, follow them and set top position. transition maintains your offensive advantage while capitalizing on their defensive movement, allowing you to continue attacking from dominant positions like side control or mount

7. Transition To Triangle

   • From here, often when your opponent's head position prevents the kimura finish, abandon the shoulder lock and transition to the triangle choke. strategic shift maintains offensive pressure while adapting to their defensive posture, creating a new submission threat from the same control position
