Ageless Jiu Jitsu: Winning When You're Older Or Less Athletic - Top Game Gi by John Danaher
Brilliant… nice to know there’s struggle with these problems & how to deal with them
Almost 5 star
Foot Sweep the World by Dainis Nguyen-Huu
This instantly gets you going, and there isn't a ton on this topic on BJJ fan, I think for sure a daily. A 5 star for reference would be a suggestion even not on a daily. This has tons of tips to use immediately in your take down game.
Decent, some very good tips maybe a lil shallow
Utilizing Underhooks & Overhooks From Closed Guard by Mason Fowler
Shallow maybe strong word to use here given the amount of stuff and entries, but that is how it feels, I think this is worth it for a daily if you are into the overhook gaurd stuff, Mason is obviously amazing, this is just not quite at the 4 star level, but pretty good.
Surprisingly Effective
The Pendejo Guard by Craig Jones
With all of the jokes that Craig Jones pulls on-line, it's hard to tell when he's serious... this guard is serious and effective!!! It's been making my guard game a lot more complex and effective during training!!!
Short but decent
The New School Closed Guard by Vinicius Ferreira
Some good stuff if you dont have the lasso sweeps, the entry to laso is a bit basic, but not bad presentation, the tornado sweep is nice. this is ok for a daily
Foundations of Guard: Attacking by Mikey Musumeci
Foundations of Guard: Attacking by Mikey Musumeci
Foundations of Guard: Attacking by Mikey Musumeci is an incredibly well-structured and detailed instructional that showcases why Mikey is one of the most technical minds in jiu-jitsu today. While the pace and flexibility in some sections definitely seem geared toward younger, more agile athletes, there’s still a lot of high-level gold here for everyone—even us seasoned practitioners. Mikey doesn’t just show you what to do—he explains the logic behind each grip, angle, and movement. That kind of conceptual clarity is something I really appreciated. As someone who’s not doing inverted berimbolos on the daily, I still came away with several concepts and positional ideas I could immediately apply to my own guard game. Highlights: Outstanding detail on angle creation, grip efficiency, and structured guard attacks. Even if you can’t move like Mikey, you can think like Mikey—and that’s just as powerful. Great reminder that foundational doesn't mean basic—it means built to last. Excellent for any belt level looking to improve retention and attacking options from bottom. This instructional made me rethink how I build and threaten from guard—even with a few creaky joints in play. Whether you’re young and bendy or experienced and strategic, this is a great addition to your library.
Precision Foot Sweeps Steve Mocco
Precision Foot Sweeps by Steve Mocco
Precision Foot Sweeps by Steve Mocco is one of those instructionals where you watch and think, “Oh yeah, I can totally do that,” and then promptly sweep yourself the first time you try it. But that’s not a flaw—it’s a testament to how technical and beautifully detailed Mocco’s approach really is. This is a goldmine for anyone who wants to make their standup game slicker and more efficient, especially in no-gi where foot sweeps are underused and undertrained. Mocco teaches with precision, showing not just the how, but the timing, weight shifts, and positional setups that make these sweeps work against skilled opponents. Here’s what I took away: These aren’t random trips—they’re calculated traps that disrupt balance at just the right time. You’ll need to be patient. This isn’t an "easy win" instructional—it’s an investment. Mocco’s wrestling experience shines through, but he presents it in a way that BJJ players can adapt and use effectively. Great for improving footwork, control, and making your opponent feel like the mat is made of banana peels. Bottom line: You won’t master this in a weekend, but if you’re willing to drill and think like a tactician, Precision Foot Sweeps could seriously upgrade your stand-up game. Just don’t blame Mocco when your first few reps end with you on your back. That’s part of the journey.
The Fastest Way: To Becoming Effective In Standing Position John Danaher
The Fastest Way: To Becoming Effective In Standing Position by John Danaher
The Fastest Way: To Becoming Effective In Standing Position (No Gi) is like therapy for guard-pullers. If you’ve ever slapped hands and immediately sat down like your legs were allergic to gravity, this is the fix you didn’t know you needed. John Danaher takes the mystery (and fear) out of the standup game. He doesn’t just teach you moves—he teaches you how to not die on your feet. The focus on grip fighting, body positioning, and safe entries makes this perfect for jiu-jitsu athletes who didn’t grow up in a wrestling room eating singlet-flavored mat burn. What I loved: No need to be explosive—just systematic and sneaky. You learn how to get into dominant tie-ups without getting tossed into another zip code. Makes you feel like you’re playing chess while everyone else is headbutting checkers pieces. Teaches you how to control the chaos instead of diving into it. Danaher’s dry wit and clinical precision are here in full force—and while he probably doesn’t recommend “yeeting yourself into a fireman’s carry” on day one, he gives you the tools to build a real standing game without that “what do I do with my hands” energy. Highly recommend for jiu-jitsu folks who want to stand up with confidence (and dignity).
Systematically Attacking The Scrimmage: Upper Body Takedowns Gordon Ryan
Systematically Attacking The Scrimmage: Upper Body Takedowns by Gordon Ryan
Gordon Ryan does it again with Systematically Attacking The Scrimmage: Upper Body Takedowns. If you’re a no-gi grappler looking to build a reliable upper-body takedown game without needing explosive wrestling, this instructional delivers in a big way. What I appreciated most was how systematic and conceptual the content is. Gordon doesn’t just throw techniques at you—he teaches you how to control tie-ups, transition to dominant positions, and finish cleanly with high-percentage takedowns. His focus on scrimmage—the in-between space where most athletes stall or get stuck—is incredibly useful and immediately applicable to real rolls. Techniques like the sag body lock, inside trip, and knee block are broken down with all the detail you’d expect from Gordon, and everything ties back to the broader concepts he teaches throughout. It’s not wrestling-heavy in the traditional sense, so don’t expect a folkstyle approach. Instead, it’s all about control, efficiency, and making the opponent react in ways that lead to takedowns. Perfect for BJJ players who want to develop a pressure-based, methodical takedown game without needing a background in wrestling. Highly recommend this one.
