    As a 65 kilo white belt I started to implement Ricksons tips about upas and power shrimp during rolls. Man, it's so empowering. I simply stopped freaking out about being on the bottom. I actually hunt for an opportunity to reverse. And it's fun. For example, I made an upa and came on top a 90-100 kilo shredded blue belt. I think these moves are essential. And if one masters it it definetely translated into being a good attacker. Because if you're comfortable in being in bad spots, you will not hesitate in trying to attack. The worst case scenario in your homeland.

      This is so important. The amount of lazy unintentional bridges that people do blows my mind. The fundamental warmup techniques are so crucial yet people work to get a couple stripes then never work to improve them from there. Or skip the warmup completely and the instructor doesn’t tend to set a high bar.

    I see a fundamental principle here that mirrors the Pedro Sauer side escape. It looks like you always have to keep your upper and lower body connected and straight when you shrimp out. Sauer's version tells you to use your outer arm to grab the inside of your outer leg. But what it's really doing is maintaining a connection between upper and lower body. Amazing

I’m also a bjj blue belt under Paulo Santana (world champ) and even though bjj doesn’t like kesa gatame with your help (IF that is the REAL you) I have been “taking souls.” When you tap someone (especially a higher belt) is as if you took their soul!

Funny because I’m a powerlifter and strong at under 165 pounds (515 deadlift) but have tapped to a 3 stripe white belt after a failed triangle attempt against a 280 pound strong man (who throws hammers, picks up anvils) and although having 4 years judo experience and over a year bjj when he subbed me with pressure from kesa gatame I didn’t get butt hurt!

      smashmusique it isn’t complicated enough to be a total skeptic about a basic, bio mechanically sound movement. We aren’t talking about inverted guard and rolling back takes or matrix guard which need rigorous pressure testing before they’d even be considered to be viable.
      We are literally talking about the most fundamental movement in jiu jitsu and the strongest muscle group in the human body. It’s a good detail but it is still very basic and most intermediate guys should be able to do this either consciously or not. Hip escaping using both legs is actually just wrong and nobody does it at a decent level. This is one of the correct ways to do it and it’s extremely fundamental and basic.

  • @lordtains
    @lordtains Рік тому

    The technique is nice, but I'm not sure the same mechanics will work when your opponent has his knees and feet on the ground (like in a proper side control). When he's standing up and putting his weight on top of you (as Bernardo does in the exercise), it's actually easier, because it's just the weight that you have to deal with, and the pressure comes from above. When he has his hips low to the ground, he can actually use his legs to frame against your shoulder, and the pressure comes sideways (instead of from above). If you try to do the bridge then, your power is redirected into the ground (which doesn't happen when he's standing up). I have tried the technique as shown, and I can actually bridge when people are pushing their entire weight into my shoulder, but I can't do it when people are doing a proper side control (even when they are not very heavy), because they can also use their legs in the same way to keep me in place. The problem of a good side control isn't weight, but pressure from the toes and legs. As others have also wondered: let Bernardo do a proper side control on Henry, and I'm wondering if he's still able to do it.
