You've been there before, one second you're going to pass someone's guard, but maybe you didn't have all your points locked down. You go for the sweep and before you know it, there's a mad scramble. You find your opponent on all fours, turtled up nice and tight. He's gathering his thoughts, you're trying to get a hook in, but he's not having it. He thinks he's in a safe zone that he can hang out in until he's come up with some new tactics to employ and you're not sure what to do next to take him out of it. Wouldn't it be great if you could completely ruin his day by giving him no quarter? No chance to regroup, no chance to rest? When things get a little crazy, grapplers will often go to this temporary safe harbor known as the turtle. You know what I'm talking about: knees and elbows on the mat, everything tucked in tight to keep from giving anything up. Well, Kenny Johnson's going to show you how you can use some basic, and not so basic wrestling techniques the next time your opponent goes to the turtle that will take this safe zone away, play with his head, and give you a valuable tool to further your attack and get on to the submission.
