6 Common 50/50 Mistakes & How To Fix Them

The 50/50 is not the mystery that it was a few years ago, but it’s still a position that many people struggle with, particularly against an opponent who is intent on using the 50/50 to stall.

A lack of familiarity with 50/50 can lead you to make a simple mistake that can cost you your ass. Thankfully most of the mistakes people make in 50/50 are easily fixed.

In the video, we address this mistake and a number of others that we see commonly in the 50/50:

Here are the six mistakes:

Trying to smash through the 50/50
Giving your opponent space to get underneath you
Floppy hooks
Loss of control of the leg
Loss of control of the knee line
And, finally, stalling from the 50/50 position.

Using the 50/50 effectively requires an understanding of the common mistakes seen in the position, which is why we hope this video helps get you primed for the seminar!
