Improve Your Sweeps For BJJ With This Exercise

Do you have difficulty getting underneath your opponent or pulling your opponent on top of you to get the sweep?

This exercise is not only a great way to strengthen your hips and ankles, but is also a useful way to build musce memory in the legs in order to be more effective and achieve greater success with the sweep.

You use a theraband around your feet and start in a "90-90" position with the hips, knees, and ankles at a 90 degree angle. Then apply a gentle tension against the band. Work your legs forward and back, eventually start to move the legs in different directions maintaining those "active feet."

This exercise will:
1. Actively warm up the legs to prevent injury.
2. Build strength and endurance in the legs.
3. Promote muscle memory for a higher percentage sweep from bottom.
