Grilled Chicken Guard Retention
Great concepts from one of the greatest defense instructors in BJJ. Priit structures this guard retention system in a way that the instructions could be easily understood and learned. Classic fundamental stuff right here.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:SIMPLE. EFFECTIVE.
Great concepts that are immediately applicable for anyone. These concepts should be fundamental for every grappler. I firmly believe that Priit is ahead of the curve here. Great stuff
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:Effective and Comprehensive
Amazing instructional with great insights to make take your guard retention to a whole other level. All of this explained in simple terms that anyone could understand 👍�
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::call_me_hand::skin-tone-2:A fantastic instructional on how
A fantastic instructional on how to establish a solid, defensible structure from open guard before you can get grips and gain control on your opponent. Very interesting. Highly recommended
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:Very nice fundamentals
Nice and straightforward covering a lot of the basics in an nice way. Mad me rethink my while open guard game.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::call_me_hand::skin-tone-2:Simply the Best Launching Pad for Learning all Guards!
Pritt is an amazing instructor! Never saw anyone take such a complex topics and break them down to a very understandable level. Make sure to watch this instructional several times and give yourself time to understand all the movements and reason behind them. It is truly amazing to see someone explain the concepts I see over and over again with very high level guard players. Over the past 20 plus years I have done much of what Pritt teaches but all basically self learned from years on the mat. First time I ever saw someone put it all together in such a simplistic system. This has already and will continue to help me in many way. It will take time (like all skills) to become proficient and get the feel of when/how to move correctly but he shows all the necessary concepts and just as importantly how to train it all.

Great content
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:Great concept
Great systematized concept. I been working with the the grilled chicken now in two weeks and it really makes sense!
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:Yet another brilliant instructional from Priit
I'm still at the beginning of implementing this system, but it actually started to give me some success against people on my belt level during sparring rounds. This is what makes a difference when it comes to instructionals - ability to improve your game right away without having done thousands of repetitions. Before Grilled chicken I had a very basic open guard, that was usually easily passed since I was more looking into it as a transitional position on my way to half guard. Now after few weeks since watching it - I'm able to keep opponents at bay and it adds additional layer to my defence. If you're into conceptual stuff and want to work on levelling up your defence, or if just want to have a solid open guard - then you definitely need to watch it.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:Yep
It’s great stuff, Priit goes by Jitsu Vulcan for a reason, very refined and I started noticing it in all the un-passable guards at the highest level. I also like his explanation of how it leads to higher forms of open guard (e.g. no gi spider guard) so you can easily start developing your own style with these amazingly taught techniques. Thank you again, Priit.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:Save years and improve faster
I started in BJJ more than ten years ago and stopped like eight (LOL) and well I wish I had a teacher like this estonian back then, my comeback would have been easier but while I am still young I do believe this is the best way to learn and already after the first volume I feel I understood some concepts I´ll never forget. It impressed me how well he teaches. I am waiting for more of his work to be in Daily Deals !
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:Great guard retention principles
This is a very concept oriented instructional. Not just a bunch of moves. Very simple concepts that are easy for anyone to apply immediately.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:effective defense structures
Although I am a big guy myself, I used to be afraid of big guys passing my guard all time. Now I am not that concerned, because even if my guard is passed, I can simply use other structures to protect myself. Frames, panda, proper turtle, running man... Yes, it's rather older men game, but I don't care, I wish I can roll til 80's ))
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:The Grilled Chicken Guard System
Very detailed instructional, I wish I had this basic kind of information on guard retention at white and blue belt. This is a must have for all beginners !
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:Simple and effective
Good techniques and explanation. I wish the videos had a more thorough index to find techniques.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:Great
Excellent instructional. Nice concept centered approach. I will improve through this information.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:Extremely helpful!
Extremely helpful!
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging:Well worth it
Well worth the money. Very detailed and easy to follow.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:Concepts that are crucial for a strong open guard
Conceptually, the only teacher on Priit's level is John Danaher. I find Priit's concepts & methods less overwhelming. The concepts explored in this collection has improved my open guard immediately. There are some that are taking me more time to implement, because I must drill and practice the movements. But I am confident that these concepts will make me better, quicker.
Great concepts
This video gives you an over arching concept of the guard. This has helped me implement and use different guards.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging:Very good explanation of guard
Very good explanation of guard retention. Slightly wordy in times.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:+1::skin-tone-2:Two thumbs up
This is my first purchase from BJJfanatics and I am extremely happy with the product. The advertisement promised a lot and they 100% delivered. The instructions are clear and easy to follow and there's more than enough content. Completely satisfied with my purchase.
Response from BJJ FanaticsOSSSSSTreasure
All of Priit's stuff is on another level! This is not your typical BJJ instructional. Priit gives you the blue print to grappling. You can go everywhere from here with greater succsess as you will understand what's the game is all about.
