    This video has had a lot of requests, so I finally broke down and made it. Here I show some Rubber Guard fundamentals, set-ups, common mistakes, control features and submission opportunities from basic to advanced. This is a sampling/overview of Rubber Guard, which is a versatile and robust position with uses ranging from sport to mma to self defense.
    There are a ton of great resources out there on this topic, mostly from the 10th Planet System. But this guard system has spread far and wide for decades now, and continually evolves. Hope you like my brief overview here.

    It's nice to see a RGBB show this stuff. Many of the RGBBs I know are living in 1994 and they have not, nor cannot, or whatever (I can't figure it out) accept that though arm locks and triangles, etc. have been around for a thousand years, how those techniques are landed and the way things are taught have EVOLVED! You know the rest, that I'm certain of. Great stuff. Keep it up!

      I appreciate the comment. I try to keep up with every facet of jiu-jitsu as I can. I’ve appreciated the 10p system for around 15 years now and have trained a lot of rubber guard and half guard techniques from it over the years. To me, if it works and is efficient and effective, then it is valuable.

    • @KnightJiuJitsu
      @KnightJiuJitsu  3 роки тому

      I would just caution against jumping into any advanced submissions. There are definitely many that require a greater degree of flexibility. Usually though, any injury comes from compromised positions with a lot of pressure on the joints that are already stretched. Make sure you stretch sufficiently and don’t do any extreme positions before warming up well.

I was able to transition to gogoplata, arm bar even zombie sometimes, but the lack of reliance on my flexibility makes me feel like its just an elaborated sideguard.

      I would say start with research, like you’re doing now by watching videos. There are also plenty of good books to read, which include history and philosophy as well as techniques. You can get a training aid, like a grappling dummy, but ultimately you’ll need a partner and place to train. You can do a lot without a partner, but the resistance a partner provides is crucial to actual training.
