Do you normally go for takedowns? Or pull guard?

@artygunnar 2 месяца назад

Hey Bernardo, I am new to jiu jitsu, I've been doing it for some months now, and I am not super athletic, but I go to both night and day class, the day class has less people, so we start from standing. Pull guarding is something I understand and I use when I fail at doing a take down. However, I have been coming back here to try and actually pull off these techniques when we roll. In my mind it will be like, let me try osoto gari, uchi gari, etc... and then it doesn't work, I pull guard just because I don't want to give advantage to the other player. Any tips? Sorry for the long comment, what is happening, in my gym specific, there are a number of people who have wrestling background, and when we roll, if I don't get in that quick guard pull, then they are completely steam rolling me.

@artygunnar Месяц назад

Hey Professor Bernardo, Hey Professor John, The takedown you demonstrated at 34:44 I have been successfully hitting when starting from the standing position in my recent sparring sessions, landed it against the purple belt coach, landed it against a lot of the other white belts! It is so deceptively simple yet effective! Thank you so much!

@a0kca1p 3 года назад

Great stuff. I agree with John's recommendation that ankle picks and collar drags are excellent takedowns to start with, but I think the discussion can be expanded. Empirically, single legs (and double legs to an extent) are the most common takedowns at the competitive black belt level. So even though they have higher risk based on John's six criteria, they are the most effective at the highest level. Singles and doubles are also the most common takedowns (by far) at the freestyle wrestling world championships where people are a lot better at not getting taken down, and the most common takedowns in high-level MMA. So if you are a BJJ competitor and want to "future proof" your takedown game, it would make sense to start practicing those as well, even though it may take a little while to get proficient at them. That said, if the goal is to start taking down people quickly as John mentions, the relatively low emphasis in BJJ on takedowns means that you can go pretty far in this sport doing lower risk techniques like ankle picks and collar drags. Ankle picks, at least in wrestling, tend to be somewhat body-type dependent and thought of as best for long lanky types (see Cael Sanderson and David Taylor). Will be curious if John addresses this in the instructionals. I would add arm drags, throw bys, and snapdowns to the list that do well using John's six criteria. But in truth, if you have any proficiency in one or two techniques, you will have a significant advantage compared to the average current BJJer.

@beefburito 3 года назад

I'm not disagreeing that single and double legs are the most effective takedowns, they very well might be and are my favourite ones in no-gi, but their use at the highest levels isn't necessarily evidence for such. Techniques and strategies change constantly, so what's currently in use isn't necessarily the best practice, just the best so far. It's entirely possible that they're the most common techniques because a lot of BJJ practitioners have learned their wrestling from wrestlers, so they learned what wrestlers think are best, then got really good at those takedowns and used primarily those in competition. It's possible that the takedowns John's suggesting are actually better for BJJ but aren't used because BJJ guys haven't put as much emphasis on them, therefore are not as proficient at them, thus don't use them as much in competition. All that being said, I still think single/double leg takedowns are great, but I also know that I know next to nothing about BJJ next to the guys at the top levels of the sport.

@oscararielrestomunoz3910 3 года назад

Also single legs and double legs are the most countered takedowns in the sport of jiu jitsu apart from being the most successful (and perhaps wrestling), thus making them risky for back exposure and neck exposure, therefore you must factor in your proficiency, but he is going to teach them, I want to hear his take on this. My guess is that apart from a basic and fundamental knowledge in the execution of singles or doubles, the next important thing is your opponents reaction and kuzushi, a opponent recovery from a immediate previous attack or a opponent regain balance inherently doesn't have the mechanical advantage to move, thus it mitigates his ability to counter, add that to proper drive and posture and angle and the odd are in your favor. I'm excited to see him discuss doubles and singles in particular knows he coached GSP.

@a0kca1p 3 года назад

@@beefburito Well said, man! There is definitely lots of room for technical developments and even possibly some innovations in the future when it comes to BJJ takedowns. And I look forward to it! That said, double legs and single legs have proven themselves over a century+ of grappling across both submission-based and pin-based disciplines. So even if other BJJ takedown techniques rise in prominence in the future, it's a safe bet that doubles and singles will still be very viable right alongside them. So a person doesn't have to worry about investing time only for those techniques ending up being "niche" or "outdated". And you don't have to worry about them losing effectiveness as you move up the ranks. That's what I mean by "future-proofing" your takedown game. BTW, I rarely shoot double legs myself for the very reasons Danaher mentions (still like single legs, though!). And for my purposes, I can usually succeed using lower-risk and frankly lower-exertion options. But even though I don't use doubles much, I recognize their effectiveness, especially at the highest level.

@a0kca1p 3 года назад

@@oscararielrestomunoz3910 That's a very good point. It is another reason why I rarely shoot double legs despite having a wrestling background. The average BJJer doesn't have good takedown defense, but they will at least know how to sprawl okay. So you can exploit their lack of knowledge by going for other techniques. But when there are no longer obvious defensive holes to exploit, as is the case with high-level opponents, then it comes down to whose technique and execution is strongest. And when the offensive player becomes skilled enough to minimize back/neck/belt/rolling/weight exposure, then the pendulum often swings back to making doubles and singles good options. Not the only options, but good options. Even at black belt worlds. I agree, Oscar: I also want to hear John's take on these popular takedown techniques. I definitely think that there are BJJ-specific adaptations to the classic single leg and double leg. For instance, in the gi, being able to grab my own collar when I shoot a single is pretty significant. And I know there are BJJ-specific setups that don't exist in wrestling--for example the fake guard-pull into a shot attempt. Looking forward to seeing what he has to share.

@HestonMMA 3 года назад

Singles and doubles are without a doubt the most prominent takedowns in combat sports. However, this means that the literature on defensive measures has been extensively developed. In high level MMA, it is not uncommon to see a Jiu Jitsu practioner fail in getting their opponent to the ground. Mia vs Usman is a perfect example. Mia shot on Usman repeatedly and got stuffed over and over in addition to eating strikes on the way in and on the way out. Mia was so desperate to grapple he even pulled guard, which unsurprisingly didn't work. All that to say, because of the effectiveness of singles and doubles, they become increasingly harder to complete at higher levels at which the defense has been devoloped. Specifically for MMA, I think wall/cage based takedowns will become more and more prominent, and for a Jiu Jitsu practioner in MMA, cage based takedowns are the best option currently in my opinion. The "rules" of takedown defense are different when you have your back against the wall, an Olympic wrestler will typically have decades of takedown defense training in an open area. Put their back against the cage, now how do they sprawl? Of course wall based grappling has no application in sport bjj, but I believe that any BJJ athlete who wants to make their way into MMA should focus on the skillset of wall based grappling and takedowns. The wall is a great equalizer for grapplers.

@jleano609 3 года назад

Always interesting to see how the different point scoring aspects of judo vs. ju-jitsu drive tactics. Danaher has excellent knowledge of both and appreciates how different throws lead to different scenarios and point scoring possibilities for both tori and uke. Plus in his analysis of how to "short cut" the learning process of O-Soto-Gari and arrive at a randori-effective technique he demonstrates a lot more tactical awareness and appreciation of how students actually learn effective technique than many judo coaches. In my coaching I've largely discarded static uchi-komi with 50/50 grips for this reason. My drilling is largely grip break/movement/entry/throw based now.
