Entries and Lapel Control

Keenan Cornelius's Worm Guard 101: sit to guard safely with the lapel, go to DLR, pass the lapel outside your ankle and behind their knee, and hand it to the other hand. The canonical entry.

Keenan's introduction to lapel guard, including the pendulum spin-under sweep that shoots the leg through to the far hip and deliberately avoids ending in 50/50.

Securing the sleeve grip alongside the lapel in the '90s worm', and using it to off-balance a knee-cutting opponent before building the full position.

The worm guard position explained in fifteen seconds. Useful as a quick reference for where the lapel goes, nothing more.

Andre Galvao feeds the lapel from lasso and DLR, inverts to pass it over the thigh, sweeps to mount and shows the armbar, triangle and wrist lock follow-ups.
