Breaking the Posture from Closed Guard (Fundamentals)

Professor Lucas Lepri teaches how to break the opponent’s posture when in his closed guard. Lucas has the opponent in the closed guard and the opponent is gripping the pants near the waist, locking the elbows to posture up. Lucas starts to break the posture by gripping the outside of the elbows. He now pulls the elbow out and then down as he also uses his legs to pull the opponent in to break the posture.
