The title makes it seem like this technique will be specifically effective against Bernardo.

[@BrianBirdy]

Good shout 👌🏻😂

[@clytnjms]

This Guy is like the coolest BJJ instructor I've ever seen do a video. How can anyone not like this Guy?

[@Cenyon]

My guard got passed so many times in sparring today, gonna memorize these!

[@TheArtofGuitar]

The Bernardo Barrel Roll! Love it!

[@tommym321]

Funny seeing you here!

[@amirkazemi2517]

love the recover, roll away move. I am going to try that soon. I identify very closely with Bernardo's rolling style...slow, deliberate, pressure based rolling.

[@slavicvolk]

3:28 single leg escape preventing side mount 4:17 half guard preventing side mount 5:54 rolling away and reguard

[@bear5945]

Thank you frog man

[@TheElThomaso]

The rolling away option looks very interesting. Will definitely give this a try! Also the note on keeping your guard tight in the first place, very helpful. Thanks for sharing!

[@robbie31580]

Excellent instruction as always Bernardo! Thank you very much!

[@christianthames2302]

I love learning principles and this channel is great for that

[@ramtron1775]

I love the roll technique.

[@stephenrogalla2108]

Thats a nice roll, it will keep your opponent off of you briefly enough and create enough space to regain guard.

[@BrianBirdy]

That roll. Genius 👌🏻

[@yodizzll]

that roll is amazing!!!!!!!!!!

[@anthonybruno6439]

thank you for sharing! this is very useful.

[@benjaminminer8972]

Awesome advice and he sounds like a Brazilian Frank Oz which really makes it even better

[@dyonesios]

It's like Arnold mated with Bill and Ted, and their kid did jiu jitsu

[@Presence_o_Mind]

Awesome techniques! Thank you!

[@tonkachow]

Great little details

[@frankysharpp]

Awesome!! Thank you!

[@Abaddon5850]

Excellent

[@robbelliii]

Is it just me or does he sound like Gru the guy from Despicable Me?

[@errcoche]

I used the roll away with a big guy who likes to throw the leg to one side on a double under without having controlling grips. Also good when you are getting "gift wrapped". I really need to work on coming up for the single. I never do it but it gets done to me all the time.

[@ZWATER1]

Ty

[@sienjong2762]

This is wicked thank you

[@BJJ.Fanatics]

Glad you liked it!

[@Seegie16]

Is it just me or does anyone else notice the guys really good at bjj usually have huge big toe knuckles?

[@fabiosilverio9284]

Show de bola mano... parabéns !!!!

[@camodigital2]

Jesus thank you very blessed information

[@anthonybarrett3513]

It's like Arnold Apu and Barney from the Simpsons all rolled together

[@DP-qe2xo]

vehry vehry tAIGHT

[@Sfourtytwo]

Faria sounds so austrian it is unbelievable

[@thaabietdomingo5233]

Is it just me or does Bernado's assistant look exactly like Terrence Howard from the side??

[@hughjair133]

Thaabiet Domingo looks like a cross between Terrence Howard and Elliot Hulse, yo Elliott lol

[@BuderChristian]

thanks for this technique. I have a question: when you get to your knees at 3:48 I often finished in a guillotine. How can I avoid this?

[@cheeseburns11]

I try to drive in from the side so you're not directly Infront of them. From here you can look for the lapel and work on Bernardo's sweep he likes from half guard. Keep moving so they have to post too as they can't choke you if you're making them post. Just my thoughts but I'm no expert. 🤙

[@BuderChristian]

@@cheeseburns11 thank you very much. I will try it

[@thedarkknight646]

"Stay lik dis. Or stay lik dis" lol the Brazilians have funny accents

[@VandersonPacheco]

hahahahahha

[@phelipeoliveira391]

Most brazilians have trouble with the ''th''' sound or the soft ''R''', because we don't have any sound close to that in portuguese.

[@Idk-xi1tr]

thedarkknight646 😹😹😹

[@nstv23]

Go to Brazil and speak Portuguese and let’s see how hideous that will sound lol.

[@camodigital2]

JESUS wise instructions 😇

[@ozzmann3217]

Getting a bit annoyed I felt like I was getting things really well the first couple weeks but breaking the guard I can do it but it’s not easy for me and the. When mine gets passed I have nada it’s frustrating I understand it’s a life time of learning but I just feel I’m missing some real important basics

[@eek771]

[@jptothetree]

I am WAYYYY too lazy with my guard, that's for sure.

[@danielmunoz128]

My guard is as strong as a wet paper bag.
