As a wrestler who’s new to Jiu Jitsu, I found myself naturally getting into this single-leg position (and often feel guilty as I’m just doing what I I know and not using Jiu Jitsu). The only detail I’d add is to shelf the leg before driving across, as it will prevent him from using a whizzer to get himself back in the game.
As a new ''jiu-jitser'', also new to wrestling .... What do you mean by ''shelf the leg''? edit: Just discovered your channel. Nice videos! I like the additional comments using subtitles. Keep up the content! you seem knowledgeable.
Another awesome video, Professor Knight. Love the Chewjitsu shirt Ed is wearing with a shout out to Chewy. Your channel and his channel are my favorites. There’s enough success to go around for everyone.
Can you maybe summarize how you can go to bjj for years and years and years including with plenty of black and brown belts... and nobody ever explain even once about bumping the back of the knee as they are attempting to pass?
@@KnightJiuJitsu so maybe their jiu-jitsu was fine... but they lacked the experience and ability to diagnose the problem and express it... not that they hated me and wanted me to get stuck in side control for the rest of my life.
@@hard2hurt keep ya head up bud, I’m two months and have trouble w/side control. Try to Mr. Eli’s video “Escape From Heavy Side Control”.. It was tremendous help!!
Great 👍🏼 stuff - like the discussion regarding creating then saving space…some of that I do instinctively without thinking about it…that wrestle up from bottom of mount it looks like you’ve got a heel hook right there, too…that half imanari roll looks perfect for an old guy like me 😜
Great stuff as usual Prof. Hey, I have some questions since you are one of the few BJJ guys, now days, that still takes the self-defence aspect quite seriously. I have most of your videos from BJJ Fanatics and think they are very good. However, watching this sitting Vs standing vid got me thinking again about the very simple, common and highly dangerous scenario of kicks and stomps from a standing opponent in a real self-defense situation. Considering how common and dangerous these kinds of attacks are , I don't think BJJ gives it the attention it warrants. Even with self-defence orientated instructors like you, I don't remember you covering that topic- at least not in depth. I use the old Pride FC , Japanese type MMA rules as a lens into how simple and dangerous kicks and stomps can be against even a well trained BJJ guys using their open guards. The old Shoot Boxe guys knocked out a lot of good fighters or really hurt them with what looked like mechanically simple stomps and punts-often right through their opponent's guards. They were well trained and practised of course, but what they did does not seem that far removed from what any street fighter might improvise in a serious self-defence situation. They seemed to use almost "passing theory" to have stomps that went through, over and around their opponent's guards - and many paid a heavy price. Now days with the UFC rules, I think a lot of people have forgotten this danger . What do you think? I think this aspect of self-defence needs a serious upgrade. I have trained with only one instructor, Sylvio Berhing, who has a couple "worst case scenario" type ground kick defences in his "gangorra" (teeter totter) drilling system, and while beautifully smooth, I think are pretty high risk and based on sport techniques- so their should be a lot of options in between. Are you familiar with his method? I think this could be an interesting and important topic for a new series or at least part of one. or maybe just some ideas on your channel here. I hope you will consider sharing with us your perspective on this important self-defence topic.
That was my favourite breakdown of how to do a reverse shot!! Thanks so much!

Thanks and appreciate the detail too.
This comment is thoughtful and helpful.
I don't think that's allowed on TH-cam.

@@mindfictiontv4664 check out my channel…I go over that in detail in my video on how to finish the single leg
I really liked the shin-on-shin variation 💪
Thanks brother. And thank you for being in the video!

I’m always supportive of people I respect in the industry and community. Chewy is the man, and I’m honored to be mentioned in the same context as him.
Best video on the internet. Thank you!
🙌🙌🙌
Nice one coach! that's real expertise
Great video, thanks Eli!

I cannot explain this…but never contribute to malice what can be attributed to ignorance. It feels like that saying fits here somehow.

Why would we teach the strikers how to grapple properly? Then how would we beat you up??
@@ArmchairViolence lol
Always top class videos, bravo good sir 👏

Thanks, i will try this tomorrow if i get the chance 💪🙏

Awesome. Thanks.
i swear i loveee your channel!!
Thank you!!!
I wish gyms would do more stand up.
Every day I see Ed on ANOTHER person's TH-cam channel!
"Everywhere I go... I see his face."
Everywhere.... mwahahaha
One of these days I'll actually one of these videos and be unstoppable, or at least look competent in something.
I appreciate you watching in the meantime 🙌
standing up is against BJJ rules, at least in gyms. as is using power and/or weight
Whatever gyms are like that need to be avoided.
@@KnightJiuJitsu it's the starting on knees rule. it's stupid. at least one should play guard, and so the other can and should stand up
Luke Skywalker, Use the force.
Oh no... knight is bold head
Bald too. But also bold. 😂
When you have a beard like professor Knight, you don’t need no hair on your head.
@@edmondlau511 exactly what I was hoping would be the case 🙌
