You are all screwed
Can I pay you to NOT show people this? You're going to make me quit Gi BJJ.
666gggg666 goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooood come to the dark side of the force. no gi grappling
Wait until i create the waffle guard....
this is good stuff
Hahahahaha!!!! Awesome job Keenan!!!
inverted backwards reverse de la worm guard
Just started learning this system. I am hooked.
This is great for older guys, or as my Professor says, "executive players."
I can see my Professor saying that 😂
Hey bjjscout!!! You guys do an amazing job. I thoroughly enjoy these. Keep it up!!!! Thanks for contributing to the bjj community like you do.
Avoid the grips. Grip fight like heck, and try establish your position pronto. Once the grip is made around the Lapel it is hell to break. Also Join Keenans site - it is unbelievable. and very well priced!
It was taught to me today, I think it is a very good technique, but I found some difficulty on switching hand after the opposite leg because of short lapel that left.
I just did it today on accident in an open mat, so much control. I want to learn more.
one of the best chanel's for bjj...oss and thanks Bro
Thanks Keenan. I have been playing a lot of lapel through the legs lately. This gives me a great jump. I can't wait to train now.
The popular Gi's have a longer lapel for a fashionable look; there are a few makers out there that understand the hazards.
+bjjtapes Jim - this you?
Thank you, tried it and it was very effective and very frustrating to my opponents. Once it was locked there was little my opponents could do to prevent the sweep or berimbolo up to purple. Brown belts gave me alot of trouble because they would prevent the set up at all cost. Once I started working for the lapel they would squat and fight my hands then start smashing. Will keep studying to figure the best set up by threatening something else and keeping them from jumping on top of me.
there are many moves just of the lasso, especially if they base down or stand left foot forward - lapeloplata, inverted DLR sweep cobrinha style, you can scoop the right leg to get the Lo Plan B Sweep (my Lo guard study 2). Also you can lock them into caio terra half guard...
Great work as always.
This guard has been used by Robson Moura for a quite long time, one of the entries/setup from his single leg guard.
I just tried this guard yesterday and today with one of my training partners at the gym. Very, very nice control. I am not finding any drawbacks so far. I think that the key is the the fact that your leg is glued to the hip and at the same time applying significant control to the oposite leg. The sweeps feel very natural. I am interested in what a defense would be. so far I can´t seem to come up with any when my partner has me in this guard.
Chris Taylor there are a few counters online..check them out!
I love that videos analysing technics. Liked
really like it OSSS another great innovation for BJJ players to evolve
Can anyone confirm/deny that this is knee reaping?
The passer's 'wormed' leg is turning inward and the 'wormer's' grip on the lapel is pressuring that knee inward, much like the traditional reap with a guard player's leg.
nope, only if the guarder brings his leg over the hip center line and has you in a single leg X position
UNSTOPPABLE. Very good watch, I'll get to practice a bit to feel it.
That's some next level shenanigans! Awesome stuff!
Amazing work, love all your videos.
I cant train anymore do to injuries so i cant try it, but the counter seems to me would be the same as the de la riva counter. Assuming my right leg was trapped, i would take a semi circle step backwards with my left, while laying on you with the right side of my body. With your left leg now between my legs, I could go for a knee bar. Or i could bring my right leg next to your leg and get a reverse kesa gatame.
Also, if you know its coming, as you as feeding the lapel through the legs, someone can catch your forearm in between there hamstring and calf by sitting down. Enough pressure makes some people tap. If not, your hand is free for a wrest lock there. Its something not done/looked for in bjj, but I learned it in either, catch, shooto (the art), or silat.
you are too good man i guess you are a champion by now
@@sally200953 I'm a Faixa Preta and won the pan am's multiple time at various colored belts. How about you? I see your name Sally. Are you just a girl?
@@xx-ev2sq you are gay
Wow, one of my favourits channel, thanks
All the guy has to do is go for your lapel and put pressure on your neck before you get anything on him. That's how you could counter this. Not to mention that you're foot is ripe for being ankle locked.
Thanks, another great vid and music. Avoiding the foot from going past the hips to the outside and re-griping the lapel trapping the ankle on the inside of the hip --> Leg Drag??
Keenan cracks me up. I was lucky enough to see him dismantly Kevin Casey at Metamoris 3. Keenan's a monster.
Actually what if u lasso your own lapel, theoretically your leg is stronger than his arm, so what if you should lasso the lapel, again theoretically, the lasso would strict the pulling of the leg and if you should put that knee to the mat and retract it then it should break the grip, also since his foot is trapped, it leaves open, submissions, passes, and maybe a berimbolo.
yeah some of the counter proposed involve a lasso of your own...check out my counters and some others on YT for more ideas on that theme
Very Nice, Need to try to see if it will work for me.
i miss bjjscout
Not sure if I did it wrong or what but I got ankle locked when I did this. are ankle locks a big threat in this position? Also would the guy on top be able to pull one leg x or deep half in like a sub only situation? Im just curious. Im gonna keep playing with the position to get it down
Francisco Ramirez yeah he can, actually u can drop for locks (esp toe holds) in spider/OLX/X/half etc, just that many people won't risk the sweep.
What is the difference between worm guard and Lapel guard?
The foot On the lapel and the leg INSIDE the lapel
Damn!! another great vid. Great game by Keenan...
great video, so insightfull
I'm 6'5" 195lbs and I've been looking for a good way to kill the knee cut pass. This is working great for me! Question though, is there any way they could spin backward and kneebar your right leg from that position?
THEBLOODKING123 you can't even long step with this...you will get swept as you try to pivot and the guarder has the option to let go of the lapel at any time to disengage to consolidate top position, many counters don't work, but Lo found a way , see my match study on Lo v Keenan!
Been playin with this for about 2 weeks now and the main counters I'm seeing are the leg attacks toe hold and knee bar which I'm doing well countering but mostly when I come up my training partner works easily into single leg x so be careful noobs! ;)
you need to keep your leg across his hip to stop the olx sweep. I shd have a vid on this point out in the next few days
yeah using the thumb down grip im getting into mount more than single leg x now :)
BJJ Scout just want to hear your thoughts. What is your course of action as the worm guarder in Galvao's case when he steps back?
many things...lapeloplata , inverted DLR sweep (keenan semi tries it in this match but I think he hadn't fully worked out the motion yet)
Q: (why) is it not possible to leglock that wormguardleg?
I had to watch it a few times, the music kept distracting me. Great song!!! Loved it!!!
lebroucke heh, cool, check out my latest vid!
the music you can mute? 😒
sad you you don't continue to do videos like this
Nice innovation Keenan .
Why not just attack his grip on the feeding arm and break that grip?
yep ounce of prevention worth a pound of cure
The only reason I will even give this guard a second look is because I like the soundtrack of this highlight. :)
cool
Worm guard sounds so sneaky and weird. Human evolution has taught us not to trust in weird or sneaky things. I would've called it the salubrious guard. Something very positive and comfortable.
You did not create the worm guard, Alex Jones created the worm guard in 1997 when he was doing Karate.
Parabéns. ..One question. Did keenan already apply this technic with some guardeiro like miyao or Mendes? How to apply this when opponent like to seat on guard? What ever. Big up to the people who makes bjj evolving with efficient creation.
not yet used in a double guard pull situation, but it should also be good in getting the technical stand up sweep there if locked on, thanks for watching!
For some reason i see Lo passing this guard with his active passing and quick knees movement .
Leandro Lo vs Keenan Cornelius... Metamoris 3.5 - make it happen.
666gggg666
x2
666gggg666 YES!!! Who wouldn't pay to see that?!
Keenan just beat Lo at the worlds 6-4 using this guard; Lo had no answer for it
Joe Cressman where can I go to watch worlds? I've been missing out
This may sound obvious but I got a guy I roll with who is really good with straigh ankle locks, to me it looks liek your leg is open to straigh ankle locks where it is left. Is the ankle lock there for your opponent and if so how would you avoid it?
Mike Lombardo disengage and take the sweep points, realistically you can drop for locks in any type of open guard really, just that most won't concede the points. With Worm though you get to disengage (release the lapel) on your own terms, its a lot harder if you get stuck in X/SLX/half and someone suddenly toe holds you imo
Its awesome i tried it and it worked awesome the only thing is people step over the leg that lassoed the lapel and i had to reset cause of kneeslice threat. .like the would step over the ankle...so i just need to make sure the whole ankle is stuck to the hip i imagine.. maybe i just need to practice it more :p
cool - keep on experimenting, remember there are also possibilities to just do lapel lasso techs as they try fight off the feed....
I was put in this position today for the first time.. Wtf!!! Pretty cool definitely felt incapable of defending but im sure there is... I wanna try it now!
Nice Keenan. I have been developing one called the Kung Fu Guard. Hope to get really good at it and show if off a bit.
would it work as well with out gi?
Quinton Tait Only against black people...
Awesome!!!
Yes yes yes yesssssss.... Worm gaurd is the best....
I can't find the first song online anywhere?! :(
Try hlfmn glittering. It's on amazon mp3.
Where the new videos ? 😢😢
Great video and amazing creativity Keenan. With total admiration for it's effectiveness in sport BJJ I have to say I don't like the recent evolutions of sport BJJ techniques and think it heads on a path to BJJ being as useless as TKD. Just a personal thing, I'm a 40 year old guy, I like "rice and beans" BJJ
TKD ain't that bad....I like both, the original BJJ style and all this new stuff....But I think you will see a resurgence of closed guard and stacking (this is very underrated these days) in comps
where is the music from ? you didn't post in the description !!!!!
Hi see the "about" section!
Great
Soooo is BJJScout someone from the UK? I see the word defence used where in the USA we spell it defense...
Seriously though awesome video again right up there with excellent breakdown details and quality analysis
Hmmm could it be Oli Geddes then?
It's actually Roger Gracie.
...
OR or or... any other English speaking country aside from the US perhaps?
I heard Jason Statham was BJJ Scout.
I tried, it works, but for me, it's not worthy, takes too long for only a sweep as I felt uncomfortable to submit from this position, after you sweep you have to pass the guard yet, I'm a guard player, I'm supposed to be lazy. Anyway I'm going to practice it and see if it works with the heavier and the higher graduated training partners.
I want to know what this music.
I like this.
hello people of bjj scout, forgive my English translator, I am Brazilian I would give you a hint p, studying the game Buchecha like you guys do with Lendro Lo and Rodolfo.
hi thank you for watching my videos all the way in Brazil! Thanks for the suggestion, perhaps Buchecha at a future date after I finish others I have planned
Im a no belt, this some high level stuff. I cant even sweep.
Bueno, hay que crear siempre. Ser fluido y nunca estancarse en la mediocridad. Felicitaciones Keenan Corneluis
that's why i prefer watching No-Gi matches....
Lol, great sense of humor, not much better than that!
Yo this shit is taylor made for my game !!! Im goin to perfect this !! Never stop makin these vids !!
thank you! experiment! it's a blue ocean
Where is your school located?
i would rather listen to voice, instead of reading the descriptions.
but anyway thanx very much!
thanks for the feedback, well can't do voice at the moment...so next best thing is Keenan's
I found it less distracting to read and pause the vid to really get a good look. Either way is good I guess.
+Sudarshan Rai I agree.
Keenan's link does not work
It does I think, works for others...
Keenan site is gold. lol
which group sing this song? at 6 minutes
Maybe this is why I suck at jiujitsu. My legs are half the length of his
Keenan, your "BJJSCOUT" cupon code doesn't work on combatskin.com
Hi it was probably because it was applied to an item on sale, it works!
Cool thanks!! I'll give em a call
Yeaaaaaaaa!!!!!
More like tentacle guard, or squid guard, man this is going to be a headache to pass, but someone will eventually find a way
they named it squid guard because of you?
whats the song called perpetual motion?
gg lim hi see the about section!
Is it me or did this video just explain options from worm guard and not actually how to get to it?
baaaam! AMAZING!
Good accomplishments for Keeanan. Congrats. However, not into tug-a-war jiujitsu. Sport jiujitsu is getting ridiculous.
+dirrtyxris956 Thats why no-gi is more fun to watch
perpetual motion perpetual motion perpetual motion perpetual motion perpetual motion !!!!!!!
i'll probably get flamed for this, call me "conservative" or whatever, i really got some mixed feelings about (sports) bjj. i think some things are getting out of control... it's like it turned into tug of war and lost the essence of jiujitsu (self defense martial art). maybe i'm just ignorant about how these new guards can be useful in self defense or maybe that's not even the point at all. i mean it's cool the game is developing constantly, but the more it develops, it's like the further it gets from its root (self defense).
I would bet on a tug of war athlete over a martial artist (as opposed to a combat sport) in a street fight
but sports bjj is not for the street its for the sport
its up to the practitioner to pick and choose for what they want. you want sport? train some sport techniques. you want self defense? give your buddy some boxing gloves, and practice bjj techniques that control the opponent and allow you to avoid punches. no martial art is perfect, but every martial art has something perfect about it for you.
The guards all lead to submission which are all effective. Just in sport u must get creative at high level.
Keenan...i think i can defeat this...
Looks extremely aggravating. Defend an arm bar then realize you've been tied up. Lol
If you believe Keenan's stuff is boring or shit, you either have some instructor who still believes in creonte and thinks his stuff is different and more dangerous than anybody else; Or you believe you know it all, or you've been in the game for all of about 2 or 3 years and think your opinion means something beyond just that. If you think first before you criticize something that is obviously amazing, you may be jealous. Instructors who teach ignorance and control based on lineage or "their style being the best" are not growing spiritually or mentally. Is that really who you look up to?? It's time to check yourself before you wreck yourself.
If you believe his worm evolves the game, you have an amazingly insightful and intelligent instructor. He isn't afraid for you to find something out there he may not know. Because, somehow that makes him less of an instructor or something. In fact, he picks your brain because an instructor is first and foremost a student who began learning who his jiu jitsu is "after" getting his/her black belt.
I keep this quote in my head: Empty your mind...Be Formless...Shapeless.. LIKE WATER...You put water in a cup...IT BECOMES THE CUP...You put water into a bottle...IT BECOMES THE BOTTLE....You put water into a teapot...IT BECOMES THE TEAPOT...Water can FLOW or it can CRASH....BE WATER MY FRIEND.
Kennan Cornelius is like water and many of you just don't get it..
Bored as fuck after your second sentence.
Dude...that was 2 years ago...youre a little late..but maybe thats your style
Bored after "Dude...."
heel hook.
Arrrghh! That looks frustrating as f@@@###k!!
i lik dis.
All this wizard stuff... I don't understand
it's effective and difficult to pass, but i hate it…i know it's not intended as a stall position but it makes for boring jiu jitsu.And yes,i know keenan is much better at jiu jitsu than me,…it's just my opinion.I like flowing jits and this aint it.
maybe specialise in Nogi then. I have been on his website a while, and it is soooo much fun to learn man.
dude i really like most of his game,just not a fan of this particular position..just my opinion.and i much prefer gi jiu jitsu.
ok cool. Gi is awesome, but so is the nogi. I reckon then just take note of it, and try figure out how to counter, cause i see a storm of Worm guard players coming..
yeah we have a cpl guys playing this kind of stuff and I'm working on crushing it
Shaughn Vos I agree. It's not jiu-jitsu it's 'stall the guy and hope you sweep him to get the 2 points to win the match'. I prefer to use the basics that work well as does Rickson and Kron Gracie.
is worm guard 11th planet?
it was a joke.... 11th planet.. get it???? ok nevermind..
Nice joke, btw 10th planet is the rubber gurd for those who can't get the joke :-)
LOLing that Sherlock Holmes didn't get the joke.
this music is cancer...thank god there is the mute button to enjoy the nice breakdown
Funny guy but he can be a little overwhelming. Small doses.
Dafuq did I just watch?
Hjj
This looks like a girl sport to me
Maybe you should try that "girl" sport and see :)
+Pablo Valero maybe I'll poke your eyes out.. I haven't lost a street fight yet
+Mark Spark Hahaha "yet", go with Keenan and see how it goes
lol you silly boy, I hope one day you run into someone who trains in public and start shit. I hope im there to watch and see the look of total frustration as you are controlled by someone half your size
Mark Spark
lol
Too difficult to train, definitely could take time.
In the meantime, I'll create my own guard aptly named "maggot guard"
