@@davideric8250 its good when for example opponent on top of you. You can learn how to get out. So I think wrestling and jiu jitsu complement each other.
I've started training Bjj a few weeks ago and absaloutly loving it . This looks like a great move that I'm going ask my training partner Fri night class if we can try this . I'm in desperate to find someone I can do some drilling with between classes so I can perfect my moves . I'm 45 yrs old and it's going to be a hard road but we'll worth it . Thanks again .
Just a point on the street fight aspect: be very careful of your knees and wrists etc when your landing. It's a nice takedown but if you do it on concrete without changing your landing for a hard surface you could wreck yourself. As he says at the end: don't get dirty. Loved the tutorial mind you. Very clear.
I attended an "Entangled Fighting" seminar recently, taught by a 2nd degree BJJ blackbelt. He taught us almost the exact same moves. It is good to see two independent, knowledgeable instructors teaching similar concepts.
Despite the interruptions and distractions, this is the best tutorial on youtube for understanding body lock/bear hug takedowns. Thank you so much for creating this content.
I study judo so when i get to a low body lock like that i like to go with a tani otoshi, but I like to be able to have that option. Plus your tips on getting to the body lock from the over under position are awesome so that will help me get that desired body lock that I want so badly.
Did a slight (accidental) variation of the pummel tonight. Got both under hooks first, which made my opponent base out even more. I still went for the side tip which brought him back in a bit and I managed to get the body lock and take down, Thanks Coach, it's a great technique.
"What do you want for christmas" lmao, that's a genius way to make you remember the most important part of the takedown actually. Now i will remember the movement alot better because you added a humoristic element to the explanation. Bravo!
This video is outstanding! Full of great details for a noob like me. I've improved my upper body wrestling thank to videos like yours and would love to see more on the topic. Thank you.
That's some solid grappling technique. I watch too much and only able to retain so much to the next mat. Hopefully this one sticks cause it sure would improve my standup takedown
Hi coach, I know I'm 2 years late, but our club will be practicing this tonight. We're trying to incorporate more wrestling on top of our striking game. Will keep you posted here. Thanks heaps!
Always makes me take a second thought about things , i just have to learn how to actually apply the moves learned through here in real life during rolling . Once I'm rolling all thoughts and memories seem to go out and that's the worst.
I love this move. Even at a tiny 5'2 I'm able to use this move on bigger guys. It's my goto against bigger opponents since I dont want to shoot on anyone above 170 lbs and end up on btm. My tiny arms allow me to sneak into the gaps against bigger guys when pummeling. Only issue I have sometimes is being able to get my arms around a bigger guy and lock hands. On the bright side most bigger guys hips are right at my level. I dont really have to change levels to much lol. Great video. Going to share it for sure.
People underestimate smaller guys , big mistake , in my experience some of the baddest m.fs I've met and seen fight were very short , keep training and always stand up for yourself and the your loved ones !!!!
Great channel this dude's like a magician who lets u in on some of the trade secret tricks. I always hit the slow motion so i can really absorb the lesson. THANKS FOR HELPING OUT THE AVG JOES.
I love this channel already tried so many techniques some come out better than others, just need more practice but the ghost is unstoppable! Thank you for sharing so much knowledge.
Definitely like the 20 minute videos even better. But all of them are good. I just swap back and forth between newest videos and older ones. Request - your favorite A game submission attack chain. Example: your go-to that you like to look for this sub, but if if they counter you go here, if they counter that you go on to this, etc.
From the bottom, closed guard. You've got some awesome videos already on top half guard, and I've watched your omoplata series (maybe that's already your favorite?)
I want the long videos as well because your teaching is so well thought out. I only have time to learn from a few teachers and have done Karate. Hope to teach one day.
This might be kind of a weird comment, but I used to do taekwondo as a kid, and my favorite part of it would be the "self defense" stuff we were doing once a year for demos. He grabs your shirt here, you do this and this kinda thing. Aikido-y. Back then, I would have watched this video and would be like "oh that's so messy and brute, where's the precision blah blah". But after starting grappling a few months ago, I come to appreciate this for the beautiful technique it is. It's beautiful not because it looks beautiful, but because it's just so damn effective.
Thanks for keeping the street fight reality in mind. What are your thoughts about incorporating some combat jiu jitsu techniques? Thanks again for your time brother. 👍
You've earned youself another sub, great video man. As a 1st Kyu judoka its cool te see (and learn) some moves for clinching, great video for my MMA skills
I never thought it was realistically a good idea to be all crouched over in a real fight. Maybe they're willing to "take one" to get the take down (I'm not). Thanks for the lesson.
Reminds me of Backhold wrestling at the Highland Games. I got picked up and thrown all over the place, despite both participants remaining in over/under clinch. Nice vid
I'd love to see more body lock entries and takedowns. Not coming from a wrestling background it's difficult to enter confidently with the double leg but the body lock I find alot safer from strikes.
Double legs are easier to enter take this from a wrestlers stand point. You cant just dive for it everytime You have to set it up. The set up for the double leg is circling until you have angle. And than shoot. Atleast for me.
He is actually a good teacher in real fighting a lot of time there are steps can be skipped due to one person usually being the superior grappler or fighter. I use to use this in wrestling all the time only we YOLKED guy straight to his back due to superior placement of the lock.
Awesome stuff Sir! But I think for a combat style of doing it I think I would have kept one arm over instead of the double under. Because when throw the Boxing gloves on for some jiu-jitsu I have people that try and get the double under and a frame across the neck usual messes with them enough that I can make space and keep hitting them in the face or upper cut haha 😆
Yes that’s possible. It’s also possible to negate that defense by staying tight and just finishing the takedown. It all comes down to who is better prepared.
There is a similar throw in Muay Thai, called "giant grabs the girl" except you only throw them over 1 leg and always dump them on the floor while remaining standing.
Great move and excellent point on the stance pointing at the differences between sport wrestling and street fight situation It is so true that wrestlers have the habit of not clinching or not doing it properly unless greco roman I use this move a lot for one simple reason Minimum strength maximum efficiency down to the point but i only do one thing different The arm that goes behind the lower back i always make sure that i switch it to a palm up and palm down with the other hand It is much more secure way tighter n there is no way your oponent could move back his heap or even create an inch of space it feels much much tighter beacause your palm up results in your elbow and forearm gluedto his lower back The difference between palm up and palm down on that specific arm is a good 3 to 4 inches tighter thus harder for your oponent to escape beacause it forces his heap even more in to you It just feel much tighter on his lower back osss ! Great video great move
