It totally does! I train at the mma lab in az. All the toughest matches I have are guys from the fight team who always look to get to the single leg to get up rather than play the jujitsu game. It makes everything I do offensively damn near impossible!
Actually, his using a wrestling sit out to shift Spencer’s weight off the back which is equal to a stand up or sake off of your opponent. It call a low sit out. Coach you are correct in your narrative. Excellent break down of using both wrestling and jujitsu! Coach Al
The biggest problem I have from standing up from turtle, having transitioned from wrestling to jits, is that there's never any forward pressure from turtle. By the time I defend the attacks, everyone just kinda falls off of turtle and I end up with a reversal. In jits, unlike in wrestling or mma, people will just fall back and literally pull you on top of them, which is a monumentally stupid idea in any rule set except for a jiujitsu tournament.
But you can start punching. The entire point of all grappling is to get back to your feet and start punching again. Or preferably not get taken down to stop punching in the 1st place .
The entire point of Jujitsu is to finish the training session so that you can continue doing something else like video games and buying things in a shop.
In wrestling we focus on getting that inside leg out once we get to that forward sit out position. That’s the most important thing. The powerhalf is useless once you get that leg out. He shouldn’t be able to pull you back from that position unless you’re a total scrub. Also, first escape should be to get that inside elbow between you and “swim” him off. The way homeboy was hanging off the side with that leg in, you wouldn’t need to do the forward sit…he is more than halfway to his own him. The top man needs to ride him like a horse or he will fall off (his powerhalf was the only thing keeping him from falling off)
@duketea_ I always get a good laugh when people try to shame me for my time wrestling when I literally have trained Judo and Jiu Jitsu for years. There are successful ways to control people on the mat and unsuccessful ways to control people on the mat. A basic understanding of wrestling escapes and he is out of there. If someone is absolutely flat and you cover them with your hips, then the power half is ok. But if they have a base, you can so easily head shrug or swim out of it. Heavyweight wrestlers use a powerhalf all the time without legs, and as soon as the bottom man gets his base, he is out. It’s literally one of the first things that we teach wrestlers. A powerhalf or seatbelt grip without legs in is not a ride. You first stay under the arms and secure legs in. Then you can work the powerhalf or seatbelt. Without legs and it’s a joke to escape. Position before submission as the saying goes and without control (position) you have more prayer in submission. Several well known catch wrestlers talk about this exact thing. Barnett is one of them. Again this is from the knees. If he sits out, that’s a bit different because you can go to the bulldog choke, but my original reply on this post addressed the position being shown here, which is a person in turtle
oh man! this is very similar to priit mihkelson running man position and defense. i love it. check out priit mihkelson if you haven't heard of him. the shaking them off the back and turning into them is an extremely fascinating defense and can turn the tables quickly
The "problem" is that BJJ should never be separated from Judo in the first place. For example there are many takedowns and PINS (to keep you from just standing up). The time for having all of these different grappling arts is over. There is only one grappling art which combines all of the most effective techniques of freestyle wrestling, greco, catch wrestling, sambo, etc etc you get the point. When I first started in BJJ (Im only purple belt), i thought it was funny that there are no take downs. All of the takedowns come from Judo or other martial arts. Then I learned the history of BJJ and realized why this was so, and at the same time how silly it is to limit your move selection to one martial art. Take from greco, take from sumo if you can find something and try it. No matter what don`t be limited. I love college wrestling; so I figured out how to turn single leg takedowns and leg laces into leg locks and knee bars, my own system. That's what this journey is about really. Find what works for your body type and your temperament. Just stand up works until you have a strong wrestler on top holding you down or a Judoka who has strong ground game and Pins. Great video, big fan, and would love to see this in practice from you Craig soon.
Judo and bjj are more different than ever. You say they shouldn't be classified as different but then say you're whole game is wrestling single legs and leg locks, those moves are basically non existent in judo (or banned from judo for decades)
It’s amazing to have the humility to say you were wrong for 15 years of your life and just say the the marital art you’re so passionate about has a huge fault
@TheHumanGibbon he states humility.....it's amazing to me the amount of humiliation you're willing to take to look like a turd. Even more amazing is the fact you're likely doing it without your own knowledge. Freakin' tots
The window of opportunity for top man is when he reaches back to secure arm. I was a leg rider my whole wrestling career. At that point, you'd simply take tour free arm to spear through the arm he's reach back with to break his grip, place that wrist behind you head and swim you near arm under his arm pit and pick up the head ....locking hands together for guillotine pinning combination. Eddie Bravo calls this the Twister. Reaching back in any fashion is what a good leg rider actually wants you to do
great demo master, good job guys 🥇🥇🏆🏆 show series techniques on IZAAK MICHELL 🥋🥋 leg locks, toe hold, kneebar, bow and arrow choke, back triangle, GI chokes, gogoplata from guard pretty please thank you 💪💪👋👋🔥🔥
Whenever someone tries to pull you into guard just stand up... once you learn how to pull out of the leg lock attempt you'll Escape every time and they'll have to stand up under referee instructions and that automatically shows who's winning the fight... just stand up is a phenomenal strategy poorly depicted in this video. When I first started attending Brazilian jiu-jitsu clubs I already had Decades of experience in wrestling and Judo so I would often just stand up then the BJJ guy would stop grappling and instruct me to come back down to the ground and continue grappling on my knees... it was many years ago when I figured out sport Brazilian jiu-jitsu was ridiculous yet for some reason people still think rolling around on the ground is awesome way to practice martial arts
This is just like me saying “I went to a boxing gym and they told me to stop kicking and doing takedowns, boxing is ridiculous because they dont do kicks and takedowns” Obviously in MMA you have to.. mix .. martial. arts.
@@kris3451 good question, actually all you have to do is stand up and then start mugging to the crowd... dance around with your hands up, point at his corner and call him a coward, just stand there and flex, the crowd will love you and hate him because everyone will know who's afraid to fight like a man, works every time! Remember the average mixed-martial-arts crowd in the United States hates ground fighting and will only tolerat it for a few seconds before they want to see the action stood up for Rock'em sock'em robots!

As someone who has met Derrick Lewis I can confirm, he’s really good at standing up.
I used to train exactly like that with some of my training partners. Goal was to always stand up if you can. And with gi.
I learnt what happened to John Conners friend who lied to the t1000 in terminator 2. He travelled to the future to train bjj with Craig Jones.
very insightfull, many thanks!
