pressure passing hierarchy

smashing through every guard with relentless top pressure. forcing mistakes as you move through positions until you take their back and finish.

Flow outline

  1. The Positional Hierarchy

    • If they frame, is your roadmap to domination. start in guard, smash through to half guard, crush into side control, advance to mount, and finish by taking back. every position is a stepping stone to apply more pressure and control

  2. Top In Guard

    • From here, You're on top in their guard - is where pressure begins. Control their hips, break their posture, and start smashing. Don't let them breathe or set up attacks. Your goal is to pass and advance

  3. Top In Half Guard

    • Once set, you've smashed through first line of defense. now pin that bottom leg, control upper body, and don't let them recover guard. is where you grind them down with shoulder pressure and work your passes. angle matters

  4. Top In Side Control

    • If they frame, you've passed guard - now crush them. drive your weight through their chest, control far side, and don't give them space to breathe. is where you set up submissions or advance to mount. timing over strength

  5. Top On Mount

    • from here, you're in king position. drive your hips into their chest, control their arms, and don't let them bridge. is where you finish with submissions or take back when they try to escape

  6. I Got His Back

    • you've taken their back - now finish them. hook deep, control their upper body, and don't let them turn into you. is where you choke them out or transition to mount if they defend

  7. Bottom In Half Guard

    • Key detail: you're on bottom in half guard - is survival mode. control their posture, don't let them flatten you out, and work to recover guard or sweep. use lockdown to stall their pressure and create opportunities. switch if it stalls

  8. Bottom In Guard

    • If they frame, you're on bottom in guard - control distance. break their posture, control their sleeves or collar, and don't let them settle their weight. is where you sweep or submit before they can pass. angle matters

  9. Bottom In Side Control

    • You're pinned in side control - fight for your life. Create frames, don't let them settle their weight, and work to recover guard or reverse. Every second you're here, you're getting smashed

  10. Bottom In Mount

    • Key detail: often you're mounted - is emergency mode. bridge and shrimp, create space, and don't let them settle. your only goal is to escape or at least get to half guard before they submit you

  11. He Got My Back

    • Usually They have your back - defend immediately. Tuck your chin, control their hands, and don't let them sink choke. Work to turn into them or at least get to guard before it's over. Don’t force it
