I get 90 seconds into your videos, have to pause and visualize for like 5 minutes, then go another 30 seconds before pausing again. This is some incredibly rich content. Thank you.
@@LIMIBJJ one day I went down the rabbit hole that is Gordon Ryan making world class BJJ practitioners look like amateurs and your channel popped up! Glad it did.
It’s official. This is the best BJJ channel for blue belts and above. Your presentation, analysis, clip examples, and even sponsor integration are great. Im going to steal some of your UA-camr skills for sure.
If anyone on any channel ever did do w Rafa video they could reach out to me for assistance on the footage. I have a lot of nogi footage of his saved on hard drives.
I'm so glad you do these, my strength feels so much less than anyone my same size at my gym so I have to rely on solid techniques to pull anything off against them
@@dubstepXpower I'm around 75 kg so I do have some more size than you, but when I go against anyone that has some weight on me I feel the same way... it just takes time and figuring out how to avoid those positions before you even get to there and using your advantages against them. When those larger opponents also have the same or better technique than you, well good luck, because Idk if there is any way to Crack that beast
Start lifting and doing daily calisthenics I’m 155lbs when starting bjj I was low 130s I feel stronger now against bigger opponents cuz of daily pull ups and different types of pushups try and lift 2 times a week for strength
This video is great, you have an awesome way of breaking down techniques it would be cool to see you do some Mendes brothers I’ve been studying them for a long time and the way gui and Rafa pass guard has influenced my game tremendously. Thanks for making these videos!
Best bjj videos ever! So technical and really pinpoint the important details of the modern leglock game. Stuff looks so chaotic at first but these vids really help identify the fundamental positions and principles 🙏 amazing
Another great video ... Lots of details. But man, I need to rewatch this a lot more to get all the information - leg locks are still complicated as hell and nobody uses them at my gym but like you said in the beginning: create a dilemma - why only focus on 50% of the body , if someone is vary of leg entanglement attacking becomes a lot more diverse
I really like your videos man great breakdowns that add a lot to my game and style of bjj. Definitely my favorite bjj UA-cam channel keep up the good work
He’s done it again!!! Amazing video! This is so helpful for my rolls and drills you are pointing things out I would probably have learned way later in life👍🏼🙌🏼
man your videos are awesome!!! make a video about rafa for sure and plz make one video specific video about Eogan Flanagan he have some serious leg lock attacks!!! thanks for everything your jod is amazing
Your match research is unmatched (pun intended). Not sure if you've checked out any Paul Ardila matches from West Coast trials but his reap entries remind me of the ones shown here from Eoghan and Holy and he feels like one of the only guys doing it at -99kg. Great stuff!
The one thing that sucks about John Danaher's influence on bjj is what we have here. A Brazilian martial art being trained in the USA while using Japanese terms to describe positions and moves. SMH were in America, we don't speak Japanese or Portuguese. Please use English when describing a move or position, unless of course you are in a Japan teaching a class. Using language that is understood by all so increase how fast everyone can improve.
From top half I hit this back step kind of a lot. When I’m hitting a cutter pass and lose the battle for the under hook that’s when I’ll take the over hook and back step to pass. However this video was to much for me to follow lol
Not really. I have this one at the moment as well but my focus is beginning to shift to bottom half guard so I will be making one in the future for sure 5 skills to improve your Leg Locks - BJJ Analysis ua-cam.com/video/1TnWyXUeE7k/v-deo.html
Still way outta my league, but my main take aways are Grips, Back Stepping, and (my favorite) using the legs to reposition the upper body in order to get back into attacking position. This last one I have used before. Unwittingly. But hey, I recognize (yay, cheers). I am fascinated by this whole 'False Reap' thing tho. (C'mon now, gimme that wave) 👋
Great takeaways and if you get good at using your legs to get back upper body position the leg lock game will come much easier to you. Stay on the grind my man 🙌🏼👋🏼🙌🏼
Hi all. I'm a starting whitebelt and I just love this page. But there is just so much information out there. What is the best comprehensive book or channel to get started? Any tips for an eager to learn whitebelt? OSS.
Welcome! I hope some other people give their input on here as well. I started out watching a lot of the Gracie stuff and I also like Jordan teaches jiu jitsu
@@hendrikvdmaesen8620 stay on the grind my man! The most important thing at the beginning in my opinion is just spending time on the mats and spending time around the sport (like watching UA-cam videos and things like that). You will do great!
Something I notice at least recently (Been doing jujitsu for 2 years) at least up until blue belt and mid level blue belts too. No ones does any ankle locks. Everyone who does I've seen dominant at some city event competition. I've absolutely caught a purple belt off guard with it once (they pull guard hard) I got it once, let me tell you, I never not been tapped 5 times in less than 3 minuets from that guy from there on. Pulling guard has been so strong that ankle locks are really easy for low levels. However, I notice purple and higher or high level no gi tournaments, leg locks are bigger now. You think professors have been pushing aside leg locks to much? Long type and I don't know if I worded that right
I definitely agree. It is a weak point in my game. I just jumped straight to heel hooks and think the straight ankle lock is something I need to spend some time on
@@LIMIBJJ I love straight ankle locks, when done correctly will tap black belts, I don't know why alot of people don't use them. There's nothing better than seeing someone's face before tapping to a straight ankle lock....maybe the face when you catch a twister, but you get what I mean.
@@uke_mike twister is still #1 😂 but yeah for me I can say I got caught up in the heel hook hype and just kinda skipped the straight ankle lock blue belt stage but I need to back track a bit. I think it’s a valuable tool
Love me some rafa, but I wish you would cover his gi stuff😅😅😅 You should also get a partner and film some of the positions you talk about a lot. I feel like your production value would skyrocket. Sometimes the high paced comp footage can make it difficult to see especially for a non leg locker as myself. Before you say we'll I'm just a purple belt, STFU, your videos are top notch and I'm not looking for a detailed analysis of the position I just want a slower smoother transition to view. Just make sure you guys were different colored rash guards, cuz that all black shit blows.
great video until the last 3 minutes or so and it turned into a run-on sentence that I had to replay about 5 times to understand lmaoo but still very good concepts
