So a few months ago I sent out a video of myself showing the Over Under pass and hitting it in competition and since then I've been contacted by a lot of people letting me know this has become their favorite pass and many have actually hit it in competition as well.
I've also been getting a lot of messages asking me some "what if" questions.* The #1 "what if" was, "What if the person attacks your arm for a kimura". The other was "What if they post on your body".
I decided I would take a moment and film something for you guys that may help you deal with some common situations that happen that can increase the percentage of you hitting the Over/Under pass and stay safe at the same time.
These situations are usually only an issue when your opponent is familiar with your move, which DOES happen.* So it is important that you have some options. Check out the video here:
Hopefully it answers some questions for you and helps clear some things up…

Lesson Five
Reframing Your Possibilities©
By Kevin Seaman
(An excerpt from my book, The Mind Game Of MMA)
“Limitations live only in our minds. But if we use our imaginations, our possibilities become limitless.” -Jamie Paolinetti
Most of us have heard the term Frame Of Reference. The term actually comes from the way we perceive something due to our belief about that subject. In my book; The Mind Game Of MMA, I briefly covered the implications our references play in what we believe to be true or false and how it pertains to Combat Sports in Lesson One, called The Mental Toolbox. References are supports that confirm why we feel something is actually the way we believe it is. OK, here’s the punch line! What you believe becomes your reality. And, this is true regardless if it is actually, in reality, real or not. Whether or not…

This video was my highest requested video from many people when I asked with a recent questionnaire. In this video you will find MY favorite takedown techniques that I personally use successfully on a regular basis in training and in competition. I have the word MY capitalized because these technique reflect my game and are all high percentage for me. Your particular style and what fits for your may be different.
Hopefully they can help with some ideas and concepts to improve your grappling in some way. Especially with takedowns many people are going to have their own variations and the way they do things as this particular topic is extremely diverse.
One of the great things about making these videos as well is I expose my own technique and I get the chance to learn as well from others. So far with the technique I have been using in this video, these movements have been working extremely well for me.

Hey Everyone,
So my highest recommended video was sweeps from the guard, so last night I decided to film a bunch of sweeps that came to mind and that I could fit in a short video like my others. I show sweeps from a bunch of positions. Hopefully they can help give some ideas or even bring back some sweeps that you used to do successfully but forgot about.
One thing about sweeps and really any move for that matter is that they are highly dependent on not just knowing the move, but also knowing your opponent's positioning and reaction along with having proper grips and timing as well. And you should ALWAYS have it in your mind that no one technique always works. It's the set-up of the technique and the knowledge of combinations that help increase your success.
Hope you enjoy,
Jason Scully
P.S. I have a goal of reaching 7,500 subscribers on YouTube, I could really use your support, if you enjoy my videos it…
