This was very clear about what happens with which arm in back attack - thanks very much. As a request, please could you do a video about concepts in leg lock defense? How to keep your legs safe in general, and how to escape from leg locks in general. For those of us who are not leg-lock experts, it's pretty confusing when you're wrestling someone who is. Thanks again for the great content.
Also on the Americana finish, I like to do a "reverse motor bike rev," rolling your knuckles down towards the mat, makes it even tighter! Was a big game changer for me!
Can't wait to try the triangle part! I'm long limbed and everybody always assume I got dangerous triangles but I rarely go for them since I feel I always gett stacked or that they quickly go around "the corner" as you showed.
Should definitely help! I've got a bad neck but still for triangles all the time because I know how to avoid the stack, and the pass, using what I showed 🙂. You definitely gotta utilize those long legs and hit more triangles!
Excellent video! Really great to have so many little details to refresh the memory in one video. Saves a lot of time researching individual tutorials. Thanks for sharing some knowledge with us in such a simple manner.
Thanks for tip number 9. I could rarely finish arm bars and even stopped attempting them. I saw this a month ago and have been grabbing the leg like you showed and finishing around 90% of my attempts! Thank you for all the knowledge!
I will watch this video pretty much everyday until ill be able to put out all of these moves in action. Your knowledge and teaching is amazing thank you and keep up with that good content!
Love these. Jordan, you are so thorough. Could we be looking forward to you making some one escapes? Being early vs late,etc? Sometimes I know what to do, when I'm in the scenario, but I can't execute because I don't know whT to do first.
Thanks man and definitely! I've got a really good idea to show escapes. Especially early. Early escapes are something I'm really good at since I have very movement/scramble based game. Just been tying to find the time to make it but it'll be worth the wait! 😁
I got yelled at by a brown belt for grabbing the leg and sitting back before my leg was over the head 😊 (going for an armbar). I didn’t want to be that white belt who says “but this guy on UA-cam says…” so I just ate it and moved on.
Love the small details in each tip. I remember learning tip 4 at purple belt, pulling the lapel slack out with the non choking hand, that was a total game changer for me. Also, would you be able to add a north south instructional to your queue? I'm curious to see how you would break the move down. I struggle with the opponent turning. Also, I lose the ns choke when big guys counter with a neck attack. The counter doesn't get the tap but it usually gives them the space to escape.
I'm going to do a side control escape video next! I'll put north south in there too. Generally I'll either try and use my flexibility to take the back, or starting turning inwards to grab a leg and wrestle. Will be clearer when I make the video :) Thanks for the suggestion! I actually never go for north south chokes for the same reason you mentioned. Some guys are tricky from the bottom, and its a tough choke to sink in perfect anyways. Much better options from N/S to go for imo.
Thanks for all the videos. This style of content with commentary added in post is probably a lot more time consuming to make but it really ups the quality compared to other channels where you can barely hear the person explaining a technique while they're doing it. For tip 9 Mounted armbar you shot your foot underneath the far arm to get into S-mount (when demonstrating the leg over head first variation). Then in the grabbing their leg first demo, you didn't get the foot underneath the far arm. Was this just to show that it can be quicker with less set up, or is getting the foot there not really necessary? I ask because I always have trouble getting underneath their tricep with my foot when going into S-mount. Looking forward to trying your way, thanks again.
It takes so much longer it's basically a part time job making these lol. More work than I expected when I made the channel but worth it to hear people are enjoying and learning 🙂 Ya you definitely don't need the leg under the far arm with my style, hooking the leg. Another huge benefit of grabbing the leg. You don't need to be fully in a deep perfect position to go for it. Only like half the "S" is really needed 🙂
this is valuable information! The back attacks part was very helpful. Being a whitebelt I'm just focused on a few submissions and no lower body submissions yet so I'm mostly working on triangles, armbars, omoplatas, collar chokes, kimuras, and rnc for now.
Thanks man! I always trap arms when I have the back. It's way to hard to submit someone when it's 2 arms vs 2 arms. And I don't wanna work hard lol. Glad you'll be able to utilize the tips 🤙
Thanks a lot, these videos are by far the best I have found on youtube so far. I'm definitely gonna try the leg grab from mount next time I find myself in that lucky situation, since I have long, flexible, but not very strong arms.
Here is something to maybe think of. My wife just got her blue belt and it took me a year of begging and pleading to get her to try it. Your wife should maybe do a channel for women and their needs with BJJ. Now my gym has about 26 women. It took A LOT of work because there was a lack of understanding of women’s specific needs vs mens in BJJ. Just saying
Tought you shouldn't cross your legs when taking the back to evoid the ankle thing. Why is it different here ? Thanks for the great channel by the way 🙌
The live rolling footage worked in is key. Really bridges the gap between theory and practice. Also helps you see what's the most important tip/step vs things that are helpful but maybe not necessary
I love these straight-forward tips and how you explain things. #16 Pinching the shoulder down for the kimura is something I can use right away. I go for that kimura from half/full-guard all the time, but often I'm pushing their arm way out into the air and not close to their body. It's difficult to finish and feels really inefficient. Pinching down is definitely an "aha" moment for me.
100% will be watching for crossing the legs the wrong way on the tri-armbar for that escape to side control, that never occurred to me before and i may try and bait someone to armbar me to see if i can practice that escape tonight. wonder how many times ive missed that...
Definitely! It's one of the reasons for lower belts I generally recommend against switching to the armbar unless last resort. Better to stick with the triangle unless the person is good and aware of how to armbar without risking the pass 🙂
This is so helpful. I am a white with one stripe and I have been using your tips and have succeeded. I even tapped a blue belt. Thank you Coach Jordan!
@@JordanTeachesJiujitsu I agree! I retain it in class and even after class. I just really sincerely wanted to thank you for your instruction. I am definately gonna share this with my gym so we all benefit!
0:14 LOL. But the top arm bottom arm etc. is like a whole instructional to me and I didn't follow very well. I'm going to have to watch that a few more times to understand which arm to grab and when. Thank you for another great video!
Great videos, demonstrations and commentary! I'm a 4 a 4 stripe white belt at age 57 and I can use all of the tips/strategies I can get. Thank you. I'm going to spread the word with the guys where I train in NY. Keep up the good work!
really need to do the first one for the back take. lose the position so much. so many missed subs not feeding thje collar. grabbing the shin for a triangle is one thing ive been missing for so long and then turning so i can get the top leg deep
if i may give some small critisism/feedback. please take it with a grain of salt but its something to think about if you're wanting to grow this channel. I really like your content in terms of the information and examples you're giving. clear step by step instructions in a fairly fast pace, which i like. BUT I find it hard to listen to a video this long with the mono-tone which you narrate. i'd suggest either making quick and shorter videos like 1-2 mins max. Or if you have the ability to, add a bit more tonality to your voice when narrating. just my 2 cents. great instructionals and production none the less. Cheers!
Coutch let me ask please Do these moves work with someone who is fluent in wing chun or jet ken do Because he's going to kick you and punch you very hard Does it really work? Or it depends How to deal with the situation How I really i don't know
The same way bjj people generally arent regularly trained to deal with striking arts (like the ones u mentioned), people from those martial arts are generally very technically deficient in the ground game! As seen in UFC 1 if people who grapple well have a reliable takedown , they win that exchange! Of course, assuming they dont get knocked out before they can close the distance Tldr: if you have a good ground game and the opponent doesnt, you generally win so long as you take the fight to the ground and minimize damage sustained in doing that process 🙏
@@JordanTeachesJiujitsu Thanks! I'm starting at a new gym and I didn't want to be "that guy" or that "stupid white belt" even though I'm not new to BJJ.

His jokes are so funny because he says them like it’s just part of the voice over tutorial. He doesn’t change his tone lol it’s hilarious.
Awesome job putting rolling footage examples in after the tips.
Thanks! It's awesome that the more rolling footage I get the more I'll have to work with to make these. Adds an exciting new element for the videos!
Also on the Americana finish, I like to do a "reverse motor bike rev," rolling your knuckles down towards the mat, makes it even tighter! Was a big game changer for me!
A great detail as well!
all great tips! lightbulb moments: control the WRIST, prioritize a good bite (triangle and head and arm)
"you see how pissed Nikki's face looks, it's a look I'm quite familiar with"
Lol i can relate
😅
Your voice is so soothing while you narrarte how to murder with efficiency and I am here for it.

Awesome tips! I like how you put a twister in there too 😎
One of my favourite subs! 😁

Awesome! Love hearing that people use my tips. Thank you for sharing with me! 🙏
That pinching the arm during the kimura seems really good, I will do it tomorrow
I will watch this video pretty much everyday until ill be able to put out all of these moves in action. Your knowledge and teaching is amazing thank you and keep up with that good content!
Thank you! Glad you find value from watching them 🙂

Hey Jordan, so much info on this video I had to buy the BJJ Fanatics No-Gi chokes to support the man, the myth, the legend. Great work.😊
I appreciate that so much. Thank you!
Which leg to cross over the other! Really helps thanks!
Glad to hear it!
the leg cross on the armbar is money!
video about safe ways to learn and practice heel hooks would be cool.... just sayin :)
That's a great idea. Heal hooks are so misunderstood. They don't need to be so feared.
I don't have enough words to describe how amazing this channel is

Awesome video, will definitely be one that I refer back to often! Thanks Jordan, keep up the good work👍🏻👍🏻
The gap in the triangle choke was definitely a lightbulb moment. Thanks for all your tips!
My pleasure! Glad it helps 🙂
Using your leg grab tip for arm bars my arm bar success rate went from about a 20-30% to about 80%

So kind of you!! Thanks man. Made my day! New video up tomorrow!
Light bulb moment...pinching down on the opponent's shoulder with your top elbow when finishing the kimura.
🙌
Glad it resonated with you 🙏
Congrats on another great and informative video...and for crossing the 4K subscriber mark. 🎉👏👊

Shoutout to Nikki for being so patient
She definitely takes one for the team in these videos lol
Hey have you ever thought about people sending videos and you coaching views as a membership rewards
Yepp I do that on my patreon 🙂
You share some amazing content. I appreciate it. Could you share some tips for older players?
Your rolling commentary is also on point. 🙌🏼🤙🏼
Thanks man! I have some ideas for older grapplers. Will definitely make that content soon!
Thank you for making this video. I enjoy your channel
Great job! You weren't lying when you said you had a great video lined up for today!
Thanks man! I'm really happy with the way this one turned out 🙂

I disagree on going for the bow and arrow choke. Just RNC or cross collar, some people escape bow and arrow.
Cross collar is one of the most common submissions you see in BJJ competition 🙂

Do you still catch some upperbelts with the americana ?????????
Yepp! Still an effective move at all levels 🙂
