Know the tipping point: Every submission in Jiu jitsu has a tipping point – a threshold beyond which it simply won't work. We've all seen those fellows who persist in working for a submission long after that tipping point has been breached. This is unprofitable work. When you know where that tipping point is, then you can use it as a marker for your next attack. If you play it well you can use it to gain the initiative in that crucial moment where the submission is lost and the pursuit of the next move begins – the athlete who starts that second move first has an advantage. The better your knowledge of where a move ends and the tipping point has been reached – the better you'll be at getting into the follow up move ahead of your opponents
