You NEED this Armdrag DRILL!! 

An Eastern European wrestler came into out HS practice in 1980 and showed this. It served me well in wrestling, Sambo and judo for 35 years!

Yeah but the JJ and UFC dorks would never ever believe that there is anything useful in any other martial arts other than their own they are so close minded

Where did you train Northern Long Fist Kung Fu??

Not weird at all! Because most of Northern Kungfu is based on Chinese Wrestling, Jiao Li (Shuaijiao) and most of grappling is pretty much universal ^_^

@@Arman-jx7hu In a doctors office lol. A lot of the best kung fu guys don't have big schools or a school at all.

@@EliteBlackSash I was always told that every movement has a lock or a throw in it. If someone teaches Changquan as a mostly striking art, they don't understand it at all.

Keeping your elbows in close to your body keeps you out of them. Extending your arms away from your body leaves you susceptible. What I call “cross blocking” is a good way to stop them once they are happening.

Because you try. Dont try. Do it. And dont focus only on this move its better to do that after a attack or counter attack. m.ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-WvzgRhBYgho.html

That’s right. Because when you drag the elbow, he’s got the same move-especially when you step with the same arm and same leg. When I coach arm drags, I never teach this one, because of the reason you stated. The percentage against worthy opponents is low. As a general rule, you don’t want to end up in positions where you and your opponent have equal position/grip. Such is the case with the over-under position and this drag as well. If you’re relying solely on speed, surprise, and athleticism, you’ll eventually meet your match. The most successful drag is where you step with the opposite leg between his legs (drag with right arm and step with the left foot in this example). When you trap the far hip (preferably the floating rib), the opponent cannot back away, because your hips are under his and you’ve taken away his center of gravity. It will take practice for you to learn this. It is what is commonly used in Greco Roman. If you don’t take my word for it, take my collegiate coach’s word for it-Andy Seras-Greco Olympian, Olympic coach, and head coach of the World team. This guy actually showed the arm drag I’m referring to in another video.

Your opponent is re-dragging you, because you are arm dragging his arm straight across. I’ve been taught to drag their arm downwards towards your hip, so they cannot re-drag. Someone also mentioned a different way of arm dragging by stepping your outside foot in between their legs. Here is the video. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-PpDAIJcdCbI.html

Thats when you train with people that don't know how to wrestle and they keep avoiding the clinch and/or pull guard. I think when you are on the mat it shouldn't be too hard to force a tie up

thanks for reply .. the bad wrestlers and noobs generally try to stay out of reach but still are pretty easy to hit with a shot, though, they don't have the awareness or skill to avoid it so you can hit it from a distance a couple of steps back. the better guys will always have hands on you somewhere so they can feel your intentions and stuff a shot before it starts

@@ijustwannaleaveacommentony6511 yeah man. When a good wrestler is passive it is hard to get a tie up. I sometimes try to make "mistakes" and let them tie me up. So at least i get to wrestle them. Like i leave my hand out really far for them to grab or something...

yeah i really hate when im rolling on the feet and this guy just walks away from me and tries to pull guard

No bodylock for me I guess...

Yes I believe gi training can help your Nogi training for sure. No I don’t think it’s “better”. It’s just a slightly different game that can enhance your awareness and show you more possibilities. I’m still a Nogi guy through and through but I don’t bash the gi at all. It’s great, but if you want to be good at Nogi, do Nogi. Nogi will help the gi game as well as gi will help the Nogi game. It cannot be quantified, it is different for every individual.

@@TeachMeGrappling I agree with you, its not just mindless traditonalism of some part of BJJ community, gi really exposes the wrong details you do and you cant really muscle or scrable out of a bad move. I did so many elementary moves wrong and inefficient when I did primarily nogi and I wasnt even aware of it. That might answer why Ortegas sub game is so simple and high percentage (same with Marcelo).

I have a clear answer to all those gi makes you better argument. No wrestlers train in a pajama. No Judo players train naked. How simple is that? Gi makes you better is just a marketing gimmick.

@@John2corner I tought it was a marketing trick as well, it kind of is, but its also true. It does expose your nogi blind spots

my expert answer : when it' hot train no gi, when it's cold train gi

I don’t even know what those abbreviations mean!??
