How To Turn THE Worst Position In Jiu Jitsu Into Your Most Dangerous Offensive Assault Launcher

Half Guard Bottom Sucks!!! It's Where Your Offense Goes To Die... Unless You Know The Secret

Even The World's Most Athletic Grapplers Can't Beat This Once You Learn It

Hi, Henry Akins here.
And if you've ever learned Jiu Jitsu from me before... whether online or in person ... you already know this:

What I teach FEELS different.

• It's simpler.
• It makes more sense.
• It works when things get real ... under pressure, with resistance.
• It doesn't require strength, speed, or size.
• It doesn't fall apart when your opponent is bigger, faster, or stronger.
• And most importantly: it sticks.

You walk off the mat actually owning what you just learned.
And this is NEVER more true than when we talk about a position 99% of people get dead wrong...
Half Guard Bottom.

Let's be honest... for 99% of the population, playing Half Guard Bottom is a terrible, terrible idea.

Why?

Because it just means your guard is halfway passed.

The person you're fighting is halfway to winning. And for most people, that's a terrible place to be.
It's a place where you're:

• TIRED of getting smashed, cross-faced, and passed
• FRUSTRATED that your "guard" just feels like a 30-second stall
• TOO SMALL to hold onto bigger, stronger opponents
• TOO SLOW to stop them from sliding their knee through
• Or just smart enough to know that "holding on and praying" is NOT a strategy

In fact, a lot of my students say they've spent years trying to "survive" from half guard, thinking it was a "safe" position...
...only to realize they were just learning to be comfortable with losing slowly.

Well...

ALL of this is
by design.

You see…

I've spent decades proving that this "losing" position is actually one of the most powerful offensive launchpads in all of jiu jitsu... IF you do it right.

The old guys who can't muscle anything.
The small people who get smashed by everyone.
The slow people who can't win a scramble.

They ALL see their offense explode when they learn this system.

Because it's built on one simple truth:

The way most people play Half Guard, the harder you try, the worse it gets.
But when you learn my system...

The more your opponent tries to pass, the deeper they fall into your trap.

And I've taken what many consider a "terrible position"... and refined it over two decades into an offensive system that works on everyone, everywhere, every time.

Not in theory.

Not just in drilling.

But in live rolling... against bigger, stronger, better, younger, faster opponents who are trying their hardest to destroy you.

And now, I'm giving you complete access to my entire "offensive launchpad" system... step-by-step... in a comprehensive training program.

The goal…

Turn A "LOSING" POSITION Into An OFFENSIVE WEAPON!!!

"ACCESS THIS TRAINING & Get Your Money's Worth In The First 5 Minutes"

"Half Guard Bottom" crams my entire
pressure-tested,
pass-proof,
offense-launching
"INVISIBLE HALF GUARD"
system into a
complete training program that will permanently change how you think about being on the bottom.

But to be honest…

Most people think the only way to play Half Guard is to:

• Hold on for dear life
• Try to scramble back to full guard
• Use all their strength to stop the pass
• Accept that they're "just surviving"
• Be more athletic

They're dead wrong.

Trying to "hold on" from a halfway-passed guard is just organized suffering.
You sweat.
You gas out.
You get smashed.

You maybe survive a little longer... but you NEVER advance. If you want to stop getting passed AND start sweeping and submitting people... you need to understand what's happening way before your opponent flattens you.

This is especially true if you're:

🐌 SLOW: You'll never out-scramble the young guys from a bad spot. But you can make their "pass" the first step of your sweep.

💤 LAZY: Perfect. The lazier you are, the better this works. This isn't about muscling or big bridges. It's about tiny, invisible movements.

👴 OLD: Your body can't recover from a 10-minute smashing session. This prevents the smash from ever happening.

🤏 SMALL: Size becomes irrelevant when no one can settle their weight on you, and everyone gets tired trying.

🧠 SMART : You realize that "my guard is halfway passed" is a terrible strategy... and you want the fix.

That's what "The Micro" (the tiny details that make the BIGGEST difference) gives you. The TINY DETAILS you can't see when you're fighting for your life. But you CAN see when I break it down for you step-by-step.

It shows you what to feel for when you're not under pressure... so when you are, your body already knows how to respond. You're not fighting. You're trapping. And that's the difference between surviving and thriving.

This is why so many of my students seem impossible to pass: they see the game slower.
You don't learn that by "holding on harder." 

You learn that by studying the details when the pressure's off... and being 2 steps ahead even before the round starts.

It's not about avoiding bad positions. It's about turning them into offensive ones.

And that happens off the mat first.

I don't think it'll take long for you to feel that shift.

In fact, if you just watch the first 5 minutes of Module One … You'll see it. That
"ohhhh… so that's what I've been doing wrong" moment.

Because this isn't one of those trainings where we warm up for 45 minutes with fluff.

This is "Half Guard Bottom". We start by ripping apart everything you've been taught about "don't let 'em pass"... and replacing it with what *actually* happens when you turn half guard into an offensive weapon.

You'll dive in.

I'll walk you through the exact mistakes that make 99% of people *hate* this position... the mistakes that get them smashed, gassed out, and passed.

Then I'll show you one simple adjustment that will change everything about how you approach this position... permanently.

The next time someone tries to cross-face and smash-pass you?

They'll feel like they're falling into a hole.
And they'll be right.

That's what happens when you learn how to turn their "pass" into your "attack."

So even if you only watch that first 5 minutes … and that's all the time you ever spend inside "Half Guard Bottom"… I'll make sure you get your money's worth.

Of course, I hope you'll want to go deeper than just getting the "aha" moment where half guard suddenly becomes effortless…

(Which is why this is a complete step-by-step training program… not just a one-off seminar.)

Because I have a lot more to show you than just "the big idea" behind why you've been getting smashed. And when you're ready to put in the reps…

…drill the movements…

…absorb the details…

Each module takes you deeper:

One adjustment. One layer.

One new thing to feel.

One more moment where your opponent tries to power through… and you smile.

And the deeper you go, the more confident you get… until half guard stops being a "surviving" position and starts being your #1 attacking position.

Even better?

This training is pure jiu jitsu mind control.

You'll see me teach you the exact timing, rhythm, and positioning that makes you impossible to smash, impossible to pass, and a nightmare to deal with…

and it'll click why your opponents get so frustrated trying to control you once you understand how to turn their pressure against them

In fact, more than a few students hit a point where they literally say:

"Wait… I see what you're doing to me… …and I'm going to start doing it to them."

That's the point.

That's when you stop surviving jiu jitsu… and start using jiu jitsu.

Here's Exactly What "Half Guard Bottom" Is NOT:

Starting with the one that every single "hard worker" usually assumes...

❌ "Half Guard Bottom" is NOT about "giving up" or "accepting the pass."

If you're here thinking this is about being lazy or letting people walk all over you... you're already off track. This is about being smarter with your energy. More efficient. More dangerous. I'll show you why a correct half guard dominates an athletic pass.

❌ It's NOT a "grab bag" of 50 unrelated sweeps.

There's no buffet. No pick-your-favorite move. It's one proven system. Applied from this one position. Done correctly, it changes everything. The only reason people think they need 47 different sweeps is because they never learned the system properly.

❌ It's NOT just another way of teaching "basic" Half Guard.

If you think half guard is just "holding on"... good. Let your ego keep getting smashed while other people are turning it into an offensive weapon. The truth? Most black belts just "survive" here. They know techniques that work when they're fresh and die when they're tired. I'll show you how to fix that.

❌ It's NOT just some seminar you forget after two weeks.

This is a complete training system. You learn. You apply. You drill. You improve ... permanently. You'll leave this program not just with techniques, but with timing, efficiency, and a new weapon system.

❌ It's NOT about making you "just hold on."

You won't become a statue. What you'll get is this: They think they're passing you. Twenty minutes later, you've swept them 10 times... and they're wondering what the hell just happened.

❌ It's NOT just for "half guard players."

This is for everyone. Because everyone ends up in half guard. This is the fix for when you get stuck in a position you didn't ask to be in.

❌ It's NOT just about surviving…it's about attacking.

When I teach you the Micro of this position, you'll see how launching your offense becomes inevitable. Not hopeful. Not lucky. Inevitable.

And finally…

❌ "Half Guard Bottom" is NOT "just another Jiu Jitsu course"

It's a revolution... for the worst position on the mat.

For everyone who's ever been smashed flat... For everyone who thought half guard was just a place to stall... For everyone who tried to muscle through and just ended up more tired or broken…

This is the fix.

This is the version of half guard that actually works… live, rolling, under pressure.
 

It's the only Half Guard Bottom system you'll ever need.

And I've taken that system…

Refined it over two decades…

And turned it into what I can confidently say is:

The Most Important Jiu Jitsu Training I've Ever Created.

Because it fixes the most common, frustrating, and misunderstood position on the mat.

And yeah... I absolutely nailed it.

So if you roll for fun, for mental health, to compete, teach, or coach… I truly believe "Half Guard Bottom" will permanently change the way you approach jiu jitsu…

and how your opponents deal with you.

(secret surprise: it'll actually change how you see OFFENSIVE pressure from the top, once you know how to defeat it from the bottom)

If you're ready to master the only system you'll ever need… and never feel smashed, frustrated, or stuck in half guard again…
