I trained one session at 10th Planet Burbank and we drilled/learned this set up. Three weeks later, I pop an arm at grapplers quest with this same set up, and about two months later I won a tournament using this system. The arm bar was super tight and amazingly set up! Great shit from Eddie Bravo. I fucking love the 10th Planet System.
Ok first off... y dont YOU think before YOU speak.. Eddie beat Royler Grace who had never been beaten in abu dhabi before or since.. how does that make him a joke? He beat a gracie as a brown belt, that makes him pretty damn good in my book.. also U should do some research, EDDIE has been saying he wants to face royler again for years now but Royler repeated backs out.. I have nothing but respect for the gracies, but until Royler mans up and faces him and beats him, im disagreeing with you.
I can handle it now, no problem. 300 or so classes later, I've gotten much better at this kind of thing. Old Marvin Hunter was right, he was not ready for this.
icon went for it had em in mission control then I made the tiniest mistake with staying tight while trying to go for chill dog position and he just postured up and smashed me.
It’s an interesting system to say the least. Luckily EVERYTHING is beatable in martial arts in regards to someone’s strengths or techniques. Sometimes by luck and sometimes by strategy.
I've seen the rubber guard completely negate an opponent's striking in the UFC. IMO, the rubber guard and Eddie's system is BJJ evolved. You guys have to remember that there is a huge difference between competition/sport BJJ and practical street or sport MMA grappling.
Hey Eddie, Love the system btw! Only thing is I used rubber guard in an open division, in Jiu- jitsu by the bay recently. The guy I was against was a huge world champ n had 60 pound over me :/ I almost had the gogoplata on him but he blew through my guard popping my knee! I know it was because i wasnt hugging my knee as well as I could have. Anyone out there from 10th planet have any suggestions about keeping your knee safe from injury during rubber guard? I could really use the help. Thanks
Watched a joe rogan pod cast before coming here and he was talking about how Eddie was very flexible and could move his legs in crazy ways...sitting here trying to replicate the shit frame by frame, I know what he means now
I am new to this Jiu Jitsu about a week and I love it ..I am amazed of all the skill ,strength, and wisdom Thank you for breaking down.. Angel from the Bronx.
ive been training this guard for 3 weeks. I feel comfortable in it and get to it often. I just need advice on what to do with my opponent pulling their head out. I guess my legs are squeezing tight enough so they can sort of back up and scooch their head out between my legs. Any advice on what to do besides squeezing my legs more? Like if they scooch out what move should i go to? Thanks so much. Love you all.
esta es una tecnica dada por un ganador de abu dhabi!! q mejor torneo para competir y ganar q ese???? vs royler gracie! fraude? broma!! tu lo q eres es un loco! isntruyete!
I heard Eddie say this on one of his other rubber guard videos. Not many people are flexible enough to get in mission control do they don't even bother with it.
Ok first off, let me start by saying that U DO NOT NEED TO COMPETE TO BE RANKED, i personally do compete. but i kno of a lot of people who are ranked and have never been close to a major tournament... second Eddie has competed... he was the first, and i believe only person to submit Royler Gracie in abu dhabi, and that right there goes to show you have no clue what your talking about...
Rubber guard works for me. Especially effective when no go. I am very flexible. Some of the other guys on my gym can't use it, no flexibility. It is what it is. Ty for the bids.
anyone have video of this stuff being hit on brown/black belts in competition? I'm not trying to be a dick or trying to troll 10p students, I just can't recall ever seeing any on the top 10p guys actually use rubber guard stuff, I know I've seen Nate Orchard do the dead orchard a few times and Richie Martinez seems to go into omoplatas off the rubber guard but thats about it
I don't know how invisible collar choke was ever possible without the double bag. How could a person not escape when you were going for the reattach to finish the invisible collar choke.
+Trilce They could escape while you're clearing the head. I think he was only showing for the sake of demonstration without the double bag. Also if you're wearing a gi you can go from the opposite collar straight into the invisible collar without clearing the head.
I'm new at juijitsu but this arm bar doesn't look tight to me, the elbow isn't deep in between the legs, it looks like the guy could pull his arm away the second you attempt the armbar
It was a big show to make money it was never going to happen. Eddie didn't even bother trying to get in shape for it. He beat Royler and made a business of it living off that one fight. It was inevitable that he would lose at some point who doesn't.
yea eddie didnt bother to get in shape for it because Royler never accepted and when he did he asked for an amount of money that no grappler has even come close to making. And from what I understand, Eddie is the ONLY person to beat Royler. A person who can beat Royler can definately teach.. You think all instructors have competed against top level competitors?.. the fact that eddie has beaten someone as good as Royler, proves that eddie damn sure knows what he's talking about. and is legit
I keep practicing this but because my gym is traditional gi, my professor keeps trying to help by giving me high gaurd techniques. On no Gi days though my coach knows what's up.
@solaris17tim Opoplatas are easy to escape. But no doubt, its good to keep that in mind incase your other attepmts fail. Always good to have an answer to someones potential counter to whatever it is you are trying to apply on them.
That's what I said, but you have to have flexibility that most people don't have. Eddie's techniques are over complicated and if his techniques are so great why do all the 10th planet guys get smashed??
What's stopping the guy in the guard from slamming you like rampage did to Arona? He's not just going to let you do that... ? Just a question.. Look into it!
I would recommend really stretching everything out immediately before your match, get warmed up and stretch out if u plan on using the rubber guard.. if u go into your match all cold and tight injuries are probably more likely to happen.. its the same with anything accidents can always happen, but if you stretch out it can seriously reduce injury
Rubber Guard is good stuff I use it all the time and I go to a GI school. Its is one of those thing if you don't drill a lot and don't try a lot when you roll, don't use it live or at grappling tournament, a bad rubber guard is the most easiest guards to pass but if you have it down good its great to use!
2:25 "It requires flexibility" because everything done earlier doesnt lol? Dont know why, just made me laugh as he said that while looking like he was in a knot
It could be that the amount of training it requires to maintain an elite level Jiu-Jitsu skill set detracts from the training time spent on stand-up, weight training, cardio, etc.
Would you be able to armbar the left arm if you were to rotate it grip it with you lat and get your forearm wrapped around the near the back of the elbow and flex out your hips from mission control?
+Paul mcPhail i can do the butterfly stretch with my knees touching the floor, i have no problems doing lotus. But why cant i rubber guard people. Is it because im 5'4 and have short legs haha
