What Will You Learn?

Heavy top control is the safest way for an older grappler to win rolls without scrambling, and few people have turned it into submissions better than Bernardo Faria.

Faria won IBJJF World titles at black belt, including the absolute division in 2015, by relying on pressure and patience instead of speed. He competed for Alliance and co-founded BJJ Fanatics. Now he's sharing a streamlined version of his Jiu-Jitsu For Old Guys control system, cut down to under an hour so you can study it quickly and take it straight to the mats.

In Fast Track BJJ: Jiu-Jitsu For Old Guys: Nasty Control & Sneaky Submissions, Faria starts in side control with shoulder pressure, the move to high mount and mount, and what he calls the worst position in jiu-jitsu, then finishes with scarf chokes, the Marcelo-style armbar, the kimura, armbar and choke from north-south. This isn't just a pinning course, it's a short, complete top game built for grapplers who would rather grind than scramble.

Whether you land in knee on belly, mount, the back or top half guard, pressure serves as the thread that ties every position together. You'll learn painful knee-on-belly pressure with the far-side armbar and baseball bat choke, how to open the mount with your hips for the high mount armbar, monoplata, arm triangle, superman attack and Ezekiel, and the collar choke, spread chicken, bow and arrow and Ezekiel from the back.

The system works because it never asks you to be faster or more explosive than your partner. Each lesson builds on control you already have, so you spend less energy holding the position and more of the round attacking. Even from top half guard, shoulder pressure, the forehead against the knee shield and the dog bar keep your partner carrying your weight.

If you've ever wondered how some older grapplers stay on top and keep tapping younger, more athletic partners, the answer is usually in how they use pressure.

Learn how to pin heavier, tire your partners out and finish from the top with Bernardo Faria.
