Sweeps From The Half Guard: Half and Half
December 4th, 2011 | Posted by in The Half GuardThe half half sweep is combination of old school and Twist Back sweeps. The sweep is set up exactly as old school but without grabbing your opponent feet. Instead you are using the power of double under hooks to tackle your opponent over. As in any other sweep, the double under hooks are the key to this sweep.
- Establish the lock down with double under hooks
- Post your right elbow on the ground so you can get on your knees
- While keeping your left hook deep around your opponent’s body, base out on your right knee
- Circle out to your left, stand up and quickly reestablish the double under hook body lock
- Complete the sweep by squeezing the body lock to pull your opponent’s wait toward yours while driving your upper body into his and then move to side control.
