What techniques / style of BJJ work best for your body type?
I'm going to make a video soon on body types for BJJ and don't want to miss anything that I might potentially forget to think of.
I'd say my body type is a stocky build, short limb & long torso.
Guards which utltize butterfly hooks on the inside work best for me. Shin on shin, halfguard butterfly, x guard etc. Rather than guards which utltiizing framing like de la Riva, or spider guard. Due to limb length.
When it comes to passing I can both speed pass and pressure pass, as im somewhat average size. Rather than being on either end of the size spectrum.
I enjoy subs like darces and anacondas but they'd be way easier if I had some extra arm length.
