Chewy and Eugene share 10 ideas on why you should master defense and escapes in BJJ.
Here are the ideas we discussed:
1. To escape effectively, you will have less fear and worries on the mat.
2. When you become skilled defensively, you can become more aggressive with your offense.
3. Increased efficiency on the mats.
4. When you avoid training escapes then you turn into a grappler with a "glass jaw."
5. When you develop a strong defensive game, your submissions improve dramatically.
6. You get injured less when you have a good understanding of defense.
7. You can tire out your opponent more easily.
8. You will be able to weather the storm against younger and more athletic grapplers.
9. Grappling becomes more fun.
10. If you're a competitor, it gets more difficult to get scored on.
