BJJ Back Mount Drills (Submissions And Red Necks)

BJJ Back Mount Drills (Submissions And Red Necks)

Having counters to someone’s back mount escape puts you a step ahead of them on the Jiu-jitsu chess match, and will save you the headache of losing one of the most dominant positions in BJJ!

Having back mount in BJJ and then losing it is frustrating. You had the person right where you wanted them, and then they got away.

In this video I share some BJJ drills from the back mount position. These are some really simple drills designed to build muscle memory for the grips, hip and body movement and can be used for a warm up. I’ve also pieced together submissions from the drills.

Most of the drills in the video are focused around how to deal with a person who is escaping on the side of your choking arm. I see a lot of people who will just give up once a person starts to escape. There are a lot of techniques that can be used in the transition after someone escapes.

You might be saying,”Chewy, but wouldn’t we rather just hold them in back mount and not let them escape?”

Well of course, but how does that work for you?

Against a good opponent with a decent back defense, it can be difficult to hold. So having some options to reclaim the back mount or to adjust to their escapes is helpful. Eventually after maintaining the back mount and stopping the persons escapes your opponent will accept the position and that’s when we go to work.

In addition to back mount retention drills. I’ve included a few submission drills that are super basic bread and butter movements.


As always I hope you enjoy the video and I hope it gives something to look forward to working on the mats.
