Marcelo answers Orlando about questions regarding follow-through attacks, pressure consistency, and confidence boosts: Organize your jiu-jitsu such that you are constantly seeking an initiative; whether it comes from obtaining a dominant grip, cutting an advantageous angle of attack, or simply keeping your weight connected and directed against your opponent. Performing any technique partially with respect to aligning your physical self and your intentions can cost you in terms of signaling to your opponent ways out of danger. At the highest levels of the sport, even as much as an inch of space can mean the difference between successfully completing a tactical task or simply falling behind on points. Paradoxically, one still needs to keep a honest awareness about shortcomings if they happen to arise; know when to adjust yourself accordingly to get right back on track towards putting a pace on your opponent and gaining some control over the situation.
