Mini Ep. 104: Head Position
from BJJ Mental Models · host Steve Kwan
In this mini-episode, we discuss head position, or how to tell if your head and neck are at risk in jiu-jitsu. We use a 3-point framework to determine if our head is safe: Avoid constriction (be safe from squeezing), Avoid impact (be safe from blunt force trauma), and Avoid broken posture (be safe from neck misalignment).
