Erik Paulson Breaks The Lockdown
Вставка
- Опубліковано 1 гру 2008
- The "Lockdown", known more generically as the "Scorpion Lock" has become a very popular and effective base of operations from the Half Guard. On three separate occasions I asked Sensei Paulson how he would counter this style of half guard and this was perhaps his most thorough, set of options.
In the future, Dr. Sick will revisit Breaking the Lockdown and try to consolidate a couple of the other options shown during other sessions with Sensei Paulson.
Now check it out and enjoy this killer set of Leg Locks, brought to you exclusively by Taking It To The MMAT! - Спорт
Erik Paulson is an encyclopedia of grappling knowledge. I`d love to train with this guy.....even if it will be the most painful experience of my life lol
Erik is the best. So knowledgeable. The man's a killer with all the different styles he knows
Why is everyone getting on here and talking trash about everyone else? It's a video to give you some options to use on the mat. That's it. Eddie didn't invent the "rubber guard", he just gave it a flash name hit a bong and tweaked some positions, thats it. It's why the kimura is called a chicken wing or an americana is called a figure four armlock. I am tired of people bickering, watch the videos and appreciate somebody taking the time to try and help folks out.
@MarcRodriguezMMA Eddie and Erik both learned under the Machados, Eddie under Jean Jacques and Erik under Rigan (though different timelines). Just Erik was already adept in subs from Shooto Catch wrestling which is why he's a good leglock guy. One of Erik's MMA fights in the early 1990's was won using the inverted triangle like Jorge Masvidal did in Bellator last year. He's a great guy to learn from if you're in Orange County.
Excellent and sharing!
love it, he is an encyclopedia, thanks for sharing.
Erik is the shit! Love his game, just does what works!!
I love Paulson. I use more of his stuff than anything else in my MMA program. It's the most longstanding high percentage material in my toolbox for real.
To me, Erik's stuff seems analytical and innovative. I don't see that Brazilian black belt death stare about him, but coach and a trainer who is at the cutting edge and looking to use his knowledge to help people train. I'm impressed.
Thanks Eric very entertaining as always!
Brian's expression after the kneebar at 1 min 34s is priceless. I think we were all feeling your pain at that point!
seriously my this is my favorite video.
One thing is about people like the late Larry Hartsell, Dan Inosanto and Eric Paulson is they give credit to where credit is due. They can blend and they can seperate. Either way, they say, "this is JKD" or "this is Dumog" etc, etc. They do not call it all JKD per se like many say they do. To me, its more the love for discovering whats out there due to their passion for martial arts over and above making any claims as to what is what.
Awesome leg locks. Eric is great. Love the knee buster/indian death lock.
@MartinezMuayThai He is a Genious in everything he does! JKD, KALI, JUiJiTS, Muay Thai. Man, Erik Is The Man!
If only Marcelo and Erik had the same age and weight. It would make the fight of the century...
i use catch wretling moves alot on wrestlers , judokas and bjj guys , they even like them
@theawakener7 you should be proud to have erik as a former jkd practitioner.
yeah, i have to agree, but i totally dig erik paulson too. i'd like to see him give some instruction against a 10PJJ style lockdown.
If the guy straightens your legs, you just lift your foot and turn it out like Erik said in the video (0:35 - 0:50).
If he uses a "whip up" he will undo his gable grip for you and if you're on the ball you can time it so that it's relatively easy to stand up while he moves you upward and forward. Otherwise you just put a forearm in his throat or across his face.
And dude, where we come from, its cool to let the demonstrator show you the move, rather than resisting every which way possible.
When it comes to leglocks there are few people I would rather have teach me than Mr Paulson. I am inclined to believe him if he says this will work.
i think its clever to snap your fingers when sparring. This will build an alternative reflex action to tapping which in a comp would mean the end of a fight. you can unknowling and reactivly tap when your body thinks its in danger but the head knows its okay. Could also be if they hear a snap/click they know to stop too :-)
wow, great stuff. my brain is actually full
erik paulson is the greatest
3:20 ankle lock
4:32 side control ankle lock
Well, he's not doing that in any of those techniques, that's why I asked, but I assume you mean the one where he's standing up. The reason the move works, is because when Eric stands up, he puts his foot in the mat where his leg is stable and at the same time putting his opponent in a position where his legs are crossed and twisted outwards and his own body weight is resting upon those legs, making them powerless. It's very painful and it is possible to surprise the opponent with it sometimes.
I liked the passes in the vid, but some of the footlocks and ankle locks you may have trouble getting if the opponent is looking to whip up as soon as you move your weight down to attack the foot and ankle
I find it crazy how some can so easily criticise these moves. Lockdown isn't exclusive or invented by 10thPJJ. And the IDL is shown not only by Paulson and some catch guys, but Demian Maia (Science of Jiu Jitsu 2) and the Submission101 guys who are 10thPJJ affiliates. If it doesn't work for you there's a good chance you're doing something wrong.
these are very effective , the ufc is only a small part of the mixed martial arts world . these techniques are used all around the world , checkout some rings , pancrase , dream , old pride videos , adcc videos . bjj guys teach and learn alot of this stuff too . in mma the focus is more on control , ground n pound and more basic positions for many reasons i.e. preference , or even not knowing advanced techniques but are once again quite effective and particularly brutal.
@MarcRodriguezMMA Eddie used to train with Erik... He mentions it in one of his books. He has a move that he calls the Paulson.
@karidaty I agree the dude in this vid ain't throwing on the sickest lockdown, but these moves work. I think you've seen the "Breaking the Lockdown: Buttock Compressor" vid one two many times where Eddie tries to undermine Erik (and Gene Lebell, Karl gotch and others who've used this move) by doing this move wrong. Erik's not dissing the rubber guard or Bravo, he's just showing a counter, but you bravo fans think RG is perfect and without flaw.
@karidaty I'd say the one's where he spins out of it and goes for knee-bars would be hard to do if he had a real tight lockdown, but still not undoable especially if you set it up with the first move. However, these are tough moves to pull off as most escapes from secure positions like the lockdown are.
It's an alternative to tapping the mat, perhaps quicker and less annoying then saying "Tap"...
the small guy who cant stop laughing
I remember Erik he used to be in MMA way back in the days, what happened to him? He was known for crazy leg locks!
However I will give you this...I have seen many a JKD person who is a jack of all trades and master of none. There are also some very good ones as well.
@karidaty Yeah, Erik would break eddie's lockdown like that.
Can you try with a resisting, bigger guy. the dummy you train with is much smaller so you can easily reach for his legs and other parts of his body. His legs are almost the same size as your arms so you can submit him easily.... just want to see if this will really work. thanks.
I guess, its something that would get on my nerves thats for sure hahah!
I'm not taking anything away from Erik, the guys a friggin legend in the submission grappling scene, trust me I know that. But my point is, against a high level 10th planet jj player, not all those defenses would work effectively; especially the very last submission he showed with the sort of figure four lock. Again, I'm not taking anything away from the man... just merely making a comment.
Somebody help me. I recently looked at a video of Erik Paulson where he demonstrates having a two handed kimura from side mount and transitions to a single arm shoulder lock which he describes as a catch wrestling move.
I thought I saved it as a favorite and really want to go over it again. If anybody knows which video I'm talking about please post the link. :-)
@ActaNonVerba08 TOTALLY AGREE WITH YOU.....DONT TALK TRASH. IF YOU DONT LIKE IT; POST YOUR OWN VIDEOS OR REPLY VIDEOS!
i got told they just open their lockdown up and go to butterfly guard when you do the standing up move?
mabye the one where he's using one of his legs to TRY to break both of yours?!
I can tell he’s a good ol’ MN boy. 😁
Like Rodney Dangerfield says, I would rather see the movie then I am out in two hours. heheheh, no I don't know the story. All I know is knwledge is power as long as you have the reflex to utilize that knowledge spontaniously. ;)
What do you mean? Which technique are you talking about?
What do you learn to come up with what works for you as an individual? Or do you just do, and teach what your teacher taught you? ;)
Look in your inbox to the responce to your message to me.
He is gonna FUP in the ring.....
Hey... who you callin a dummy?!? :)
10th planet promotes the lockdown. And these work, but not all the time, just like everything else. But a player could use these attempts to sweep. I play the lockdown and use these counters too. Its cat and mouse.
@statechamp86, i know this move works i use it all the time... I don't even know what i was commenting on with that last thing i said, i thought it was against some one shit talking Eric.
If I may interject here. They DO teach JKD. What would make you think the person who was left in charge by BL himself does not teach JKD? It just so happens that they went beyond JKD the way Bruce Taught it and learned other areas. But they still teach JKD the way BL taught it to them. Do not listen to stupid rumors put out by closed minded people. Go see for yourself first. And look into it more than just a video or a seminar or two.
whats with the clicking of the fingers
how?
That kid wasn't doing a eddie bravo lockdown, you have to be squeezing that leg. You want to essentially be trying to squeeze as hard as you would choke someone, so you will be able to take some of the effectiveness of his base away from him. The lockdown isnt a 100% sure thing, but some of those defenses Paulson displayed wouldnt always work.
Why does he snap his fingers to tap..... strange
you must be joking
does he ever injure anyone in these vids? he always makes guys squirm in the vids. lool
yeah its fucked up
Tap don't clip
Eric will destroy Eddy Bravo
@karidaty Are you honestly trying to say the lockdown's unbreakable and that Erik couldn't break yours? cuz both ideas are ridiculous.
Im pretty sure what he did to that asian was a hate crime...
that is a good technique but he is doing the lockdown wrong. its not extend its squeez
THAT IS NOT THE LOCKDOWN!!!!!!!! Do your homework DA@*.
I respect Erik Paulson and all but that is a weak lockdown. Both of his legs should be locked over the calf at the very least. That "lockdown" can be escaped by just about anybody.
The daily decrease leads to limitations. Whats a JKD person who eliminates so much going to do in worse case scenarios with limited tool and knowledge. Sorry but there are some ancient styles that have been proven effective for a few thoasand years and still exist today in some tribes due to what the content is. There is nothing wrong with learning them to increase knowledge to ensure a complete self defense background covering all angles.
He always goes hard on them people helping him out to show the moves... I don't like people like him..
wtf this is painful to watch
all these weird submissions are useless haha never see them in ufc
none of these work sorry eric!
