Getting Stacked: Pressure on the Neck and How to Avoid Injury (BJJ Gi/No Gi/MMA/Judo)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 чер 2022
- Save your neck! One of the most common complaints when people are first getting started in jiu-jitsu (especially if they’re working with bigger partners) is pressure on the neck from getting stacked. For our purposes, “getting stacked” can refer to any situation where you end up bearing your own weight or your partner’s weight on your neck or lower back. In this video we focus on a few situations where you can find weight on your neck - a classic “stacking” guard pass, the plow position and a common defense to the triangle. Think of this as an overview of what to do and how to make decisions when you’re getting stacked. However you choose to defend, rule number 1 is to always keep yourself safe - even if it means giving up the guard in favor of the turtle and working to recover your guard from there. As with many defenses, managing pressure on the neck has to do with understanding your limits and learning how you can select optimal alternatives when you feel you’re at risk.

As someone with many injuries from 10+ years in BJJ,Judo,Wrestling,MMA I love injury prevention videos.
important stuff!
Seriously, this is a huge concern if you are older or not flexible. (Older, like 72.) If I see things moving in this direction, I just bail and tap! The roll to turtle is great, but even as you do that you are exposed to injury if it is not executed well or if your partner follows you to maintain pressure. My view: It's just training, so why take the risk.
Over 70 you make your own rules 😉
Im 44 , purple belt . Sometimes I forget my flexability and was quickly reminded today by a zealous white belt. Had him in arm bar but also wanted to give him chance to escape ( learning enivornment) he *overstacked" onto my neck and dropped his weight . immediatly cranked it. Now im sitting at home with ice on it lol . 1. It was my fault , I know and apply the escapes as mentioned all the time and i shoulda transitioned to one but i assumed when he stacked it wouldnt go over 2. Learned that never assume a novice student will apply a technique safely. Have to protect yourself as well
This video is great. Its already happened to me a couple of times (heard popping in my neck and its very painful and stuff now).
Appreciate you for this video!

As Wu-Tang says, "Protect Ya Neck". But seriously, I appreciate you getting this information out. This kind of knowledge is really important for new students, and I still remember an older video of yours where you talked about the inverted position and how to ensure you're not putting stress on the neck. Was honestly a game changer for me and I no longer have any soreness or neck pain from getting stacked or inverted (now if only I could something about bigger guys trying to force me into guillotines lol). Thanks again!
💯💯💯💯
Keep these videos coming coach! Thank you
👊🏼
Liked and subscribed just for the triangle piece, which I really, really could've used last night at practice being on the squashed end of the equation.
Brilliant video as always, thank you!
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Man these are great videos. Ty
Glad you like them 🙏🏼
I just finished my second week of BJJ, and I've fallen in love with it. I really like these safety/injury prevention videos. They're pretty useful.
Happy to hear it! Good luck in your training 😊
What a great techniques. I learned something just by watching your video. Thanks.
Nice - thank you!
Thank you for this. As both my son and I are newcomers to this sport (he's on the smaller side, I'm on the larger), he's often on the receiving end of getting stacked and I've been guilty of just trying to muscle my way out of triangles and stacking my partners. I"m going to share this with my son so he has a better plan and knows his options, but also learn from this to be a better partner when I"m training with smaller folks and to focus on technique as opposed to bulling my way out. Much appreciated that this topic was put out.
Sounds awesome, thanks for watching and hope it’s helpful to you both 😊
When I was a white belt somebody once stacked me and then put pressure on me. The result was a whiplash so I had to wear collar for a while and pause training for 6 months. I could end up on a wheelchair.
Currently watching this with a sore neck from getting stacked - wish I knew this yesterday. Thank you Professor Glick, the other judo red belts won't know what hit them!
Haha better late than never!!
Thank you for this, I plan to start BJJ soon so the timing couldn't have been better.
Thank you
This was just excellent mate. I started training BJJ two months ago and yesterday I hurt my neck exactly when my partner pressed forward. Your simple advice is gonna be very useful for me
Great to hear!
that scoop grip on the back of the opponent's knee is like the jaws of life! In Judo, the black belts advise to use that when i try for juji gatame from guard to help pivot my body and drive my partner's body down. Super handy move!
It’s good advice! Thanks for your support
Useful
Great 😀
I always loved the fact that the turtle was the first position learned over 10 years ago and I still do it to this very day. Drill for life: Bridge Turtle Freeze, Roll back through. When in doubt turtle it out. Thank you Professor for your attention to the details . That scoop to throw is now apart of the regimine . Look out BBJJ lol
😊😊😊
been rolling for years, yet I'm still scared of getting stacked as I'm uncomfortable with rolling backwards due to inflexibility and size. Thank you for the good instruction.
Hope this helps 😊
This happened to me today and as soon as I felt an uncomfortable amount of weight on my neck I tapped.
OK!
I do too. Not worth it.
Im a 52 year old woman in a class of bigger younger men. I always tap at the slightest pressure on my neck. I think if I tried this it would go wrong. Im not as quick as most of the guys.
You know your own comfort level - just as in a submission different people have different levels of flexibility or range. Tap if you need to.
Exactly the same in my MMA classes and I am 38. Not worth the risk. If I feel I don't know where my limbs and neck are going, and feel in danger, I tap. Especially neck and joints.
my back hurts when i get stacked. it’s like the same pain you feel on ur neck when u get stacked, and it’s enough to make me wanna tap. is this an issue of inflexibility or weak bad muscles? the doc’s said there isnt any injury
Have the same, worried i might have a spinal compression fracture
I agree with Rick I'm 59
Great - hope it’s helpful for you. Thanks for watching
Your welcome
I tried it today and works great
Once you get in turtle you better find a fast way out because there are a million turtle attacks
not a great place to hang out 👌🏼
My spine stenosis just had a flare up😂😂😂
lol
I’m a white belt and yellow belt in judo did wrestling too but stacking helps me get really good and understand how to control my balance and structure that combine with hip movement and perfect but scooting in angles help a lot too I tapped out a few blue belts and my top game and pressure are really good and I’m only 155IBS and I be stacking guys taller then me and heavier like 220IBS im able to get them on there back and stack them and pass there guard roll them over or apply pressure and make them tap but I only did that once not planning on using stack to tap ppl because I’m scared don’t wanna turn them into a vegetable all because I wanted a tap it’s not that deep I don’t need it that bad I’ll work a safer way for a tap
