Heel-Hook Prevention from X-Guard
Marcelo explains to Carlão how he should defend an inside/inverted heel-hook against the X-Guard: If your opponent attempts to control your foot, make it harder for them to capture your heel by keeping your top X-Hook taut against their hip. If they manage to dig or pry it away into a gripping hold, immediately release their leg and dedicate both of your hands to stripping your ankle free from their control.
