These are the people that don't spar against good training partners who can pass their guard! Hahahaha!
I used to be like this, because I've got strong legs and I could hold other beginners in my guard, but once I realised that most people with a bit of training behind them could pass most guards of people smaller/weaker/
more female than them, I started working on other things.
Now I look for the "lightning submission" that I can get as soon as I get someone in my guard, or failing that, I look for the sweep, and to move up the order of positions.
