Hooks in Guard With Underhooks

Here is a position we were working on last nite. From here we worked on a way to get an arm across, trapping the the head and arm, and sweeping as well as taking the back from this position. In this clip John Will (I know, I know...) explains how to maintain this position which can buy you time to set up the moves we worked on. He goes on to explain how to push your opponent back bringing you back to more of a standard seated guard. I like to keep a record of the stuff we train and post relevant material and this one was the best match.
