Hitting a super clean double leg from halfway across the mat and earning a Jordan Burroughs reference with your shot is the stuff of dreams, however, it rarely works out like that for most of us.⠀
⠀
A great way to increase your chances of finishing the double leg is to take your shot while your opponent is defending your single leg, and, sticking with our theme of being as energy efficient as possible, I’m going to show you just how to do that.⠀

Getting to the body lock is very common in no-gi, especially off of the single, but how do you actually finish the takedown from there?⠀
⠀
Jump on their back? Sure, if you want to get dumped over head and end up on bottom side control. A lifting mat return? That can work, but it’s going to take a lot of energy and the fight still continues once you hit the mat.⠀
⠀
I present a much more reliable and energy conscious solution by using a knee tap to collapse your opponent’s base out from underneath them.⠀

There’s a real cost/benefit analysis that needs to be done when it comes to wrestling in jiu-jitsu, due to all of the reversal and submission opportunities that are available to your opponent, in addition to how exhausting it can be to finish a skilled opponent.⠀
⠀
Here’s a great option for finishing the single that keeps your limbs out of harms way in addition to requiring very little effort to finish.⠀
⠀
It’s as energy efficient as it is effective.⠀

When all else fails, when I wasn’t able to trap my opponent’s leg, I wasn’t able to catch the inside of my knee, this my last ditch effort to escape a fully extended armbar that I prefer over the hitchhiker.⠀
⠀
Watch until the end to see me use this in live competition.⠀

A lot of you guys are enjoying the armbar defense content, but wondered what to do if your opponent crosses their ankles behind your free arm, making it difficult to grab and lift the ankle.⠀
⠀
One of my students in class had the same question, so now I’d like to share it with all of you.⠀
⠀
There are many more gems like this in my videos from when we walk around class to correct technique and answer questions.⠀

Your opponent manages to break your grip while you’re defending the armbar. You hear a record scratch. The frame freezes. You ask yourself, “How did I get here?”⠀
⠀
The answer is, it doesn’t matter. The real question is what will you do next? Raise your hand preemptively to prepare the tap? Attempt a hitchhiker, risking your elbow and shoulder in the process?⠀
⠀
I present a much more reliable (and safer) alternative.⠀

The spider-web position (as it’s commonly referred) is arguably one of the absolute worst positions you can find yourself in jiu-jitsu. ⠀
⠀
However, just holding on for dear life and waiting for your opponent to get tired and do something else is not the answer.⠀
⠀
This is the answer.⠀

As dominant as the closed guard is, the second your opponent stands up, the rules of engagement change and the burden of maintaining the closed guard now falls on your ankles.⠀
⠀
Here’s a quick little trick you can use right away to off-balance your opponent when they stand up in your closed guard to drop them back to their knees.⠀

“We can be retarded longer than you can be solvent” @chamathpalihapitiya @davidsachs davidfriedberg @jasoncalacanis

The shin to shin is a great option, but sometimes your opponent is pressing forward and not allowing you the space to secure the position.⠀
⠀
Here is another great way to exploit the weakness of the combat base position and smash through your opponent’s defense like the Kool-Aid man bursting through a wall, successfully securing you the closed guard.⠀

If you’re getting to the shin on shin position, but can’t make your opponent budge, then you’re probably making the simple mistake of just pushing.⠀
⠀
Here’s how to fix that.⠀
