micro adjustments

Some crap a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu white belt says when he brags about tapping a purple belt. You’ll automatically know it’s a lie because he will go viral by being roasted on Reddit and BJJ Facebook pages with memes.

“As I transitioned to the S mount and began stabilizing my opponent, I started making the micro adjustments necessary to lock the arm bar.”

Harvesting the conscientious ability to make such subtle shifts in one’s course of action that it’s often unseeable to the naked eye, but seemingly makes said course of action indomitable. Microadjustments can be applied to all aspects of life, but are most commonly known and referred to in the Jiu Jitsu world. The term is known to pretty much the entire BJJ community after a white belt notoriously bragged about tapping a purple belt due using microadjustments.

“I took his back real sneaky like and started to set up a choke, when he tried to escape I used my microadjustments to sink the choke deeper and force the tapout.”
