I recently got a good question about how to develop the “If this, then that’ mentality and approach that many high level BJJ practitioners have with their styles. So, in the video I’ll give you some ideas to chew on about how to develop your own style and reach a relative level of competence or mastery with the positions or techniques in that style.

The ideas are very simple. But simple doesn’t mean they don’t work. After 23 years of grappling, it’s usually the simplest stuff that makes the biggest difference.

So hopefully if you have this kind of question for your Brazilian Jiu-jitsu then I hope this video is useful to you!

Thanks for watching.

“BJJ shouldn’t be used in a street fight”, “BJJ Doesn’t work in street fights.” I see this kind of stuff in comments and online all the time. I’m sure if you’re a Brazilian Jiu-jitsu practitioner you see it all the time too.

In the video I just wanted to share a few ideas to Chew on when talking about BJJ, grappling and street fights.

I also respond to a comment I got recently where someone said, “you never want to go to the ground in a street fight.”

And after watching the video, feel free to share your own opinion, experience or ideas about BJJ in a fight situation.

In today’s BJJ video I’m going to show 1 of my favorite sweeping combinations that starts in a Half Guard or Half Butterfly Guard and then finishes in a Butterfly Guard Sweep. This was requested after 1 of my rolling videos was shown on the channel and my instagram.

It starts with 1 of my best Half Guard sweeps which you can look over in more detail here:

This combo shows why I love the giggler sweep so much. It allows you to off-balance someone and transition smoothly to other attacks.

Thanks for watching!

When I talk to a lot of you through videos I’m told that you don’t do much situational rolling or sparring and that you don’t get much drilling time.

Situational work is some of the most important in my book! It’s very difficult to develop the intuition and adjustments necessary if you’re not getting time in position.

Recently in one of my videos I touched on this idea of consistency with training partners, but I never finished it. In this video I wanted to touch on this idea about having consistent training partners and a home gym for your BJJ training.

This will also, hopefully, answer a question I’ve gotten asked by many people about whether or not they should train at multiple gyms or if they should have 1 main gym for their Brazilian Jiu-jitsu training.

So, in today’s BJJ Q&A style video I’ll share my thoughts on consistent training partners and hopefully give you a useful idea to chew on.

Thanks for watching!

Cutting Edge Leglocks is the brand new leglocking instructional by BJJ black belts Rob Biernacki and Stephan Kesting https://www.grapplearts.com/cutting-edge-leglocks.

In Cutting Edge Leglocks, renowned black belt instructors Rob Biernacki and Stephan Kesting guide you through the most effective techniques, strategies, transitions, defenses, and recounters of the modern leglock scene in no gi competition.

WHAT’S IN CUTTING EDGE LEGLOCKS

Here is a quick overview of what you can find in each volume of Cutting Edge Leglocks. This instructional contains over 10 hours of organised, no-filler content with techniques, strategies, counters, recounters and drilling footage in 12 Volumes…

Vol 1, Cutting Edge Leglock Concepts and Strategies

Here you get a high-level breakdown of the concepts and strategies used by today’s highest-level leglockers. These ideas will help keep you current and provide a strong context for all of the subsequent material in the instructional.

Vol 2, The 411 / Saddle / Cross Ashi

The 411 position is one of the most powerful ways to attack the legs because it controls your opponent while giving you access to the inside heel hook. Now you can learn how to make this position even more powerful with improved methods of applying the heel hook, countering his escape attempts, and entries that he won’t see coming and will find incredibly difficult to stop!

Vol 3, Outside Ashi, Standard Ashi & Butterfly Ashi

Here you get detailed breakdowns of three related positions: the outside ashi, the standard ashi, and butterfly ashi. You’ll learn new control mechanisms and new submissions that are consistently taking gold in high-level no gi competition.

Vol 4, Inside Ashi & The Z Lock

The Z lock is an incredibly powerful control and finishing mechanism, and when you combine it with all the related attacks that you’re going to learn in this section you’ll make your opponent’s life a living hell. You’ll also learn exactly what to do to get into this position and how to shut down your opponent’s attempts to escape. This is essential knowledge for the modern leglocker!

Vol 5, The False Reap

The false reap is an innovative control and attack scheme that has developed in the last 5 years and is now regularly seen on the competition circuit. You’ll learn the hidden details the pros use to enter into this position, off-balance their opponents, and finish the match with devastating submissions.

Vol 6, 50/50 Concepts and Strategies

No serious grappler can afford to be ignorant of the changes to the 50/50. Here you’ll get the high-level strategies that have transformed the 50/50 and will give you an enormous amount of confidence doing battle in the leglock arena.

Volume 7, Passing the 50/50 Position

To have a good 50/50 game you need be comfortable on both the top and the bottom. In this section Rob will teach you how to keep the pressure on your opponent from the top position, smash him, pass his guard, or submit him with submissions that come on quickly and effortlessly.

Vol 8, Bottom 50/50 Attacks & Secondary Submissions

The world of the 50/50 has been transformed by improved attacking strategies from the bottom. You’ll learn new approaches to flip the script and attack your opponent from the 50/50 without putting yourself at risk. This might be the most important part of the instructional.

Vol 9, 50/50 Entries

If you can attack with an unexpected leglock then you have a HUGE advantage over your opponent, and in this section you’ll learn how to do just that. Here you’ll learn the newest, most surprising ways to attack with the 50/50 from the bottom from all the most common no gi guard positions.

Vol 10, Reverse Pathways and Ankle Clamps

Most leglock attacks start by controlling the leg entanglement position first and then moving on to the actual finish second. The reverse pathway approach turns that paradigm on its head; in a reverse pathway approach you start by controlling the foot at end of the lever and only then shooting into position for the submission. Submissions applied in this manner come on QUICK and POWERFUL making this an approach all serious competitors need to be aware of.

Vol 11, Countering Leglock Backtakes

The development of rolling back takes to counter leglock attacks has been a major development in the game. Therefore as a leglocker you need to understand and know how to counter this style of back take. Fortunately, there are tried and true methods you can use to completely shut down his rolling back take, end up on top, or even improve your position to apply even more devastating leglocks.

Vol 12, How to Drill Cutting Edge Leglocks

Knowing techniques is only the first step, the real magic happens in the training. In this volume Rob Biernacki shares the specific drills he uses so that you will become comfortable in leglock exchanges and learn how to safely navigate leglock tangles and tap your opponent out!
