Ep. 362: Submission Series: The Omoplata, feat. "Silver Fox" Karel Pravec

This week, we're joined again by "Silver Fox" Karel Pravec! In this episode, Karel explores one of Jiu-Jitsu's most underrated submissions: the omoplata. Karel explains why the omoplata is so effective as both a sweep and control position, how to chain between parallel and perpendicular omoplatas, and why it excels against bigger opponents.Follow Karel on Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/silverfoxbjjGet Karel's instructionals on BJJ Fanatics:https://bjjfanatics.com/collections/karel-pravecTrain with Karel at Silver Fox BJJ in New Jersey:https://silverfoxbjj.comLearn online with Karel on the Silver Fox BJJ app:https://silverfoxbjjglobal.comResources discussed in this episode:Omoplata Attackshttps://youtu.be/9cRPcxZXIKoOmoplata Set Up & Finishing Details https://youtu.be/1nTYmH6NmP0Understanding The Split Guardhttps://youtu.be/gWtdq9txY_gOmoplata to MangleDomehttps://youtu.be/lumzFvUtRMMMental models discussed in this episode:Technique Chaininghttps://bjjmentalmodels.com/technique-chainingPredictable Responseshttps://bjjmentalmodels.com/predictable-responsesReturn on Investmenthttps://bjjmentalmodels.com/return-on-investmentProbabilistic Thinkinghttps://bjjmentalmodels.com/probabilistic-thinkingDominant Angleshttps://bjjmentalmodels.com/dominant-anglesCore Mechanicshttps://bjjmentalmodels.com/core-mechanicsTheory of Alignmenthttps://bjjmentalmodels.com/theory-of-alignmentCommitted Techniqueshttps://bjjmentalmodels.com/committed-techniques⬆️ LEVEL UP with BJJ Mental Models Premium!The world's LARGEST library of Jiu-Jitsu audio lessons, our complete podcast network, online coaching, and much more!
