After the succes of our first K-guard video we now dive deeper into the system, the transition from closed guard to standup and the shallow K from de la Riva. We hope you guys enjoy. P.s. drop a like, comment or subscribe; for every subscriber I will heel hook Marlon ;)
you are an excellent teacher sir. I've watched several of your videos and have been impressed with them all. your English is also excellent. keep putting out the great content!
cool follow ups peopel should drill more that positions to combine all sort of upper and lower body attacks. outside and inside leg positions! thanks for the refference brother!!!!
Hey Tum! Thanks for another quality video! Maybe a Reverse De La Riva System would be good due to the success of the DLR one. Would love to see your take on that! Congrats on the new subs! Keep up the regular uploads!
Hey brother, thank you! We did that a while ago! Two videos; one with sweeps and another one with leglocks. Check out one of them: ua-cam.com/video/CarjSOl0i7w/v-deo.htmlsi=Q8R4Jz3l-bX90ZD1 Stay tuned btw will be uploading a sweet system somewhere this month 🙌🏼🙏🏼
@@EnergiaMartialArts awesome bro! Just found the sweep one too. These vids need more views man! Truly an underrated channel. Excited to see the new system!!!
Thank you! Great question. So yes. If the heel hook is secured (I have closed my grip) the worst thing you can do is backstep. We have seen this in the match with BJ Penn (check that out). But, as shown here, before I close my grip it is very smart for my partner to backstep because then he can face me and start grip fighting. In backside 50/50 there is no grip fighting possible for the top athlete because he is backwards. This is the reason why backstopping is a common reaction. Hope that answers your question.
@@EnergiaMartialArts So It's a huge gamble to backstep without being sure wether the grip is closed or not: You basically go all-in with the next 6-10 months of training... Thanks indeed for the answer and the great videos!
@@ElephantRage Not 100%. So for a beginner yes. But as you advance and play this position hundreds of times you are very aware of the differences in between them having their grip or not. So as you become more elite the risk is very low.
Did you watch our regular k guard video? So I’ll try my best to explain it here; the regular one is from the ground or closed guard (or open but seated) and my (the attacker) leg goes on the hip. The shallow version is from a standing or squated position and my foot goes on the inside of their knee. It’s lower (more shallow). Hope that helps!
@@EnergiaMartialArts Thanks for the quick reply. What would happen if I treated the standing opponent like a kneeling one? What I am trying to get at is why is the difference important?
@PinkCowCat it’s not. You could aswel call it an armbar. As with many things in BJJ many tiny variations get a different name. It makes sense at high level and for people involved to distinguish the nuances. Why call anything or make up any terms at all? We could call all leglocks just that; ‘leglock’ or ‘footlock’. But we have ankle lock, toe hold, aoki lock, heel hook (both in- and outside) etc. I think you get my point. They are variations of the same thing. 🙌🏼

best video
Thank you!
Never played this before, I think this can really surprise the opponent. The lifting the hips part looks hard from that position
Give it a try! Its like an armbar or triangle from the guard. Using your core to elevate 👌🏼
5:43 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Great vid.
But a question: don't you catastrophically blow your own knee by backstepping against a reverse heel hook?!
Thank you! Great question. So yes. If the heel hook is secured (I have closed my grip) the worst thing you can do is backstep. We have seen this in the match with BJ Penn (check that out).

Eres un buen luchador
Gracias! 🙌🏼👊🏽
Heel hook Marlon!!😂😂
😅😅😅
Blue belt here, being playing kguard, going well, but blue belt can’t do knee bar / heel hooks, need some other options
@@kev9385 check out our straight ankle lock video. I love going for a belly down ankle lock here because of the backside angle of k guard!
What is the difference between shallow k guard and deep k guard? I still don't get it.
Did you watch our regular k guard video? So I’ll try my best to explain it here; the regular one is from the ground or closed guard (or open but seated) and my (the attacker) leg goes on the hip.
