@jonathandebruyn6781 you would think, but it wasn’t long after I had my NCAA videos up there that I received the word I was hit for copyright infringement
I’ve been there, man. It’s a long, long road back. Good luck. Needless to say be super careful about how you use your knees until it gets fixed. I put a terrible buckle handle tear in my meniscus just kneeling down between when I got the MRI and when I got the ACL repair. I would absolutely love to see match review videos/breakdowns. I have appreciated your breakdowns so much because most other videos only show the “freaks” of wrestling - as you said in your last video. It’s amazing that Burrows does what he does, but I can’t do it. Your videos have been a tremendous help to my wrestling in BJJ. I feel like I’m finally not an embarrassment to my belt on my feet, largely because of some of your videos on fundamentals. Good luck on your recovery.
I appreciate your kind words, encouragement, and am grateful that you find my content useful. I love breakdowns, but I worry about the copyright infringement. I have been hit twice already.
Just discovered your channel a few weeks ago, it sucks to hear that. I blew my ACL 1 year ago, It still bothers me but I can roll pretty well now. Wish you a good recovery , having a qualified physio is obviously necessary but David Grey Rehab and Jake Tuura's work about knee pain helped me a lot, I think it can help you too.
LOL!! That’s not what they are, LOL!! They are “this is what Jiu Jitsu guys (who are new to wrestling) do and how that compares with classic wrestling technique.” LOL! Believe me that I want nothing more than to see extremely high level wrestling scrambles that go back and forth between wrestling and Jiu Jitsu techniques with subs, positional control, etc. I can’t wait for the day when the vast majority of high level Jiu Jitsu guys could stand toe to toe with high level wrestlers under wrestling rule sets. It will definitely make take the sport to a new level. I have my thoughts on why wrestling in Jiu Jitsu has progressed so slowly and planned on making a video on that soon
Wishing you a quick recovery man, as an idea for a video, would be nice to get your view on the best ways to develop (grappling) skills, like how to drill techniques, how to use specific methods, etc
Wishing you a speedy recovery! And look forward to the instructional-what it is on? Any chance of covering the technical details of the low single? Obviously not to demonstrate it but maybe narrate some videos on it? Just a suggestion but no worries if you cannot. Quick recovery!
Potentially! I think it’s more applicable to wrestling though, simply because some of the finishes will get you into a reverse triangle situation The instructional is really a conceptual approach to understanding how positional control works and ways to obtain and retain it
Its ALWAYS fucking judo and a leg getting stuck. Many cultures use sand instead of a mat, i wonder if having a surface that gives before your tendons would decrease injury? Good luck on your surgery! I appreciate these videos, they actually talk about the key details that make this shit work
Stupid carpeted gymnastics floor. Like velcro. Omg, I would think sand would be terrible, because ACL injuries happen most often from pivot shift. Exactly how I did it. All these years man and the one time I go a little hard on that velcro like surface I blow out my knee
Damn that sucks man, long road ahead but its doable! Those flexion and extension exercises are important as soon as you can start doing them, and just from personal experience i wish i would've lifted more pre-surgery to better deal with atrophy. Hope you recover nicely!
I definitely don’t want too much atrophy, but I am in a good place to start. My legs are my best physical attribute-genetic, but I have put a lot of work into building them. They will bounce back, but it will take work
Best of luck with the recovery! I’m dealing with a serious injury myself right now and you’re absolutely right, things happen but it’s how we deal with them that matters! Keep posting analysis/breakdown vids of takedowns during jits guys rolling please.
I hear that first month sucks balls, LOL! I was wondering why, because I had the injury 3 weeks ago and am walking around now without a brace. I looked up the procedure and was like “ohhh shit, that’s why!!” Fricking drill holes through your bones! Lol!! Yeah, not looking forward to it. It is not easy to navigate to my job and around the building
@@josephbreza-grappling9459 yeah man I couldn’t do anything for the first 10 days. My mom had to help me shower even haha. But after 1 month you’ll be good enough to walk around!
Aaaahahahahha!!! Worked for Danaher, and he is the gold standard for monetization of grappling knowledge, LOL!!! I of course will continue to make free content and won’t have BJJ Fanatics on the wall in the background, LOL
Dang man! I dislocated both elbows-Right one in college wrestling and the left one in Judo right out of college wrestling. I didn’t get surgery for either, but in both cases I broke bone off the radial and ulnar heads. The tricep insertion on my right arm never healed right. The ulnar nerve on my left one has been bothering me for 22 years. Elbow injuries are terrible. The joint isn’t just a hinge like the knee, but you have rotation. I wish the doctors had considered doing more, but I was young and I am constantly gaslit by them. Even when they saw my knee they were like “eeehh swelling is minimal so you didn’t do anything.” I insisted on an MRI and then the evidence that it’s jacked up was overwhelming. Then they are so surprised. Maybe because I am an athlete who knows when something is wrong should be enough for you to take it seriously
Im 2 month post acl reconstruction. Fist month sucks with crutches. But after you’ve got your extension/flexion done and can start some S&C ot gets way better. Wish you fast recovery!
Topic idea: a very deep and technical overview of hydration from a cellular perspective to the overall impacts on the body. What changes as we progress towards dehydration and recover? Sorry to hear about your injury
Check out my video on the science of weight cutting. Electrolyte balance, hormones, and how the taste system is affected (not in that video though) are my area of expertise in neuroscience
Sorry to hear about your ACL brother, hope to see you on the mats sooner rather than later. Maybe directing the channel to more commentary style vidoes, macthes, breakdowns etc. as well possibly having two partners physically act out what lessons you may want to artiulate through video topics.
I like the breakdowns, but they risk copyright infringement. I have been hit twice with it. My current coaches are exceptional and I would love to have them on my channel
Glad it's only minor for the other ligaments and that you're able to walk, man. Knee injuries are the worst. You should talk about your philosophy on drilling. I know people have different opinions on what is most effective. For example, when training some basic judo with Alec, he prefers to do dynamic drills (involving movement forward/back/side-to-side) rather than "static" where you practice the entry and throw without movement.
I actually would like to have Alec on the channel more. All three of my coaches (Alec, Christian, and Frank) are orders of magnitude better than the coaches I had at my old cult academy
Sorry to hear man. I'm a quiet subscriber who's a big fan of your content. During your recovery, would love if you could do more match analysis in BJJ/wrestling - I enjoy hearing your commentary. Just a suggestion - would be great if you could get software of some kind (like Firas has with his instructionals) where you can pause, and draw on the screen etc. to point stuff out.
Sorry to hear that you lost your ACL, bro. But I'm very glad to see that you already made the choice to focus more on your career as a teacher rather than that of a grappler. That'll make the disappointment a little more bearable? As for what type of content to focus on... I'd love more grappling match breakdowns. And I'm sure I'll have lots of stand-up questions once your course is released. I just need more technique-focused mat time before I have anything worthwhile to ask lol. Take care, Joe!
Thank you for your well crafted response. I appreciate your kind words. I will consider more breakdowns. I do worry about copyright infringement, since I have been hit for that twice already. But I think it’s the Big 10 network, because the BJJ videos I did didn’t get hit and had much more traffic
Hi I’m 22 and had ACLR about 10 months ago and honestly at your age I would recommend waiting before you get surgery. If I tore another ACL I don’t know if I would get another repair. There are new studies coming out showing it’s possible for the ligament to regrow(although they are highly debated). I tore mine in jiu jitsu also. If I would do it again I would just rehab and do strength training for 6 months plus and get another MRI. Surgeons will tell you about shifting and bone bruising but that already happened from the rupture. Idk just my thoughts maybe do some more research about it, and if you do decide to get surgery I would heavily consider against BPTB graft because of the pain when kneeling. I got the upper quad tendon graft and I’m pretty happy with it although my quad is still very weak relatively
Thank you for your response. Yeah it is a lot to consider. At my age, I might be better off getting it done, because in 20 years, I won’t have the same strength from compensatory abilities to stabilize it. I actually read that study. As a scientist, it is often the case that a scientist will go out of their way to poke a hole in the dogma just to show something isn’t 100%. But I am not willing to wait around to see if I am the rare person who can wolverine that thing back together, lol
@@Dante3014 no I was just saying 6 months as an example of waiting before surgery. I think the study took MRIs at different lengths of time up to 2 years maybe
Sucks to hear man - truly. I've only heard about the hospital bills you get in the US and I hope they doesn't stack up and you can get the treatment you need with no compromise. If not, maybe you can sell your body, or Doms (that's what friends do). Regarding content for your youtube channel, I have an idea. Me and a buddy got into a discussion on how to train to get better. I just had a class where the trainer had us work from a very specific position the entire class. First he showed what both people could do from there and some concepts to have in mind, like knee to elbow connection or don't give underhook, and then we would do light sparring from the position and restart as soon as we changed position somehow. Then he would correct mistakes he saw people do, and then more sparring. For one hour we did this and I liked it alot because you get to grind it for one hour. I told my friend about it and he said he hated it, that live rounds was the best because you can sharpen your best techniques or game, and that's how you get better. Those live rounds can be used to get better at avoiding those positions you don't know or are bad at. I would like to hear your perspective on it - live sparring or positional sparring. Maybe viewers can send it their matches and you can do analyses? Specifically the standup maybe, since that's what you're specialised in
Dom has officially donated his body for the channel-being thrown on 30 year old wrestling mats on a concrete slab. Lol That is a good topic. I have a lot of training advice in that area.
mabye talk about what order to learn things when you are new to grappling (need to know stuff) I am a newbie and I figured its best to start with submissions (end of a match) and then work your way to the start of the match.
If you are talking about from the standing position, then start with my stance video. I want my guys to have a rock solid stance. So many people think they have a good stance and their stance absolutely sucks. If you have a good stance, then he is going to exert a ton of energy trying to take you down. He will also open himself up too and make it easy for you to score. It cannot be overstated-stance is everything. Most people’s stances suck. Watch Tom and Terry Brands, Brent Metcalf, Nick Lee. These guys have awesome stances. They get everyone out of position and few can get them out of position
Regarding the content, I really really enjoyed the breakdown videos you did of Nicky Ryan and others. Idk how much you enjoyed making it but for sure you can do those without using your leg lol
I definitely like doing those and frankly they are super easy for me, as I did that of my student’s videos for many years. I actually started analyzing my own footage as a kid, so that I could compare what happened in reality but from the perspective of being on the mat in competition vs the unbiased objective reality of seeing it on camera. The issue is copyright infringement. I have already been hit twice for it. My NCAA videos were hit for copyright infringement-despite being educational. The BJJ people don’t seem to hit me for infringement though. I was surprised I was able to do that Gordon Ryan one without issue. But they stopped showing wrestling after that for some reason, LOL
@@josephbreza-grappling9459 i've heard multiple times from different creators that gordon/DDS does not like those type of videos, only the ones where they talk highly about them. Not only they don't like them but they try to take them down
@froggy3496 I am not surprised. A lot of content creators just kiss their asses and probably why they remain up. I gave him credit where credit was due though. He has come a long way. If he spent like 6 months with a collegiate wrestling team, his stand up game would improve to a point where he could get the match to the ground in a top position in a very short amount of time. And his top game is punishing. He definitely is absolutely incredible from mount. It looks rather miserable under there, LOL
Goodluck brother you’ve been instrumental in my wrestling getting better, just wanted to let you know you got this because I know as wrestlers the hardest thing for us is too not train as it’s an outlet. What have you been doing to keep busy outside of training?
Thanks man. I have continued to lift weights hard. Upper body workouts to keep all the muscle up top. I am going to get one of those table top exercise bikes for your arms to do cardio. It’s hard to do but I need to keep the heart and lungs going as well
They have release a new study about acl, that it can heal non-surgery u can search it, i do not in position to give advice i just wanna let u know about it incase u don't. I hope all the best for u P/s sry for my bad English
Thanks for the comment-your English is great. I read that. As a scientist, I can tell you that scientists like to poke holes in dogma to show one example of something, just to say it’s not 100%. The chances of my ACL repairing itself to how it was is so statistically unreliable that I would never wait around to hope and pray for that as an option, when I can get a good surgeon to fix it.
I tore mine about 5 years ago wrestling and after being in denial for 3 months, I got it checked out and reconstructed. Totally empathize with the disappointment especially when you can’t grapple or teach (I was instructing Jiu Jitsu at the time). Sounds like you have the proper mentality and that will lead to a speedy recovery for sure.
@@josephbreza-grappling9459 I did rehab afterwards but didn’t have much money at the time so I did a lot of the exercises on my own after doing some immediate rehab in the first couple of months through a PT. Even though I took my rehab very seriously, it didn’t feel the same for a while and I started from body weight, short range of motion and strength exercises (my knee could barely extend or retract when I was first out) all the way to heavy lifting and plyos at the end of my rehab. Honestly within the past year my knee feels better than ever because I started doing ATP exercises mixed with my lifting and plyos. ATP is kneesovertoes guy’s program. Really expanded my mobility of my whole body while also strengthened my knee. Just some food for thought since it really helped me get back to a place where I feel I have zero issues currently.
Try some horsetail. It's good for bone and joint health. I used it when I injured my spine and it helped significantly with the pain and healing. It's not meant to be taken long term, but its worth a try.
All the best with your recovery. Looking forward to you getting back to your videos on the mat. Love the content 💪💪

They have release a new study about acl, that it can heal non-surgery u can search it, i do not in position to give advice i just wanna let u know about it incase u don't. I hope all the best for u
P/s sry for my bad English
Thanks for the comment-your English is great. I read that. As a scientist, I can tell you that scientists like to poke holes in dogma to show one example of something, just to say it’s not 100%. The chances of my ACL repairing itself to how it was is so statistically unreliable that I would never wait around to hope and pray for that as an option, when I can get a good surgeon to fix it.
I tore mine about 5 years ago wrestling and after being in denial for 3 months, I got it checked out and reconstructed.
Totally empathize with the disappointment especially when you can’t grapple or teach (I was instructing Jiu Jitsu at the time).
Sounds like you have the proper mentality and that will lead to a speedy recovery for sure.
Thank you! I definitely weigh options very seriously. How is it now?
@@josephbreza-grappling9459 I did rehab afterwards but didn’t have much money at the time so I did a lot of the exercises on my own after doing some immediate rehab in the first couple of months through a PT.
Even though I took my rehab very seriously, it didn’t feel the same for a while and I started from body weight, short range of motion and strength exercises (my knee could barely extend or retract when I was first out) all the way to heavy lifting and plyos at the end of my rehab.
Honestly within the past year my knee feels better than ever because I started doing ATP exercises mixed with my lifting and plyos. ATP is kneesovertoes guy’s program. Really expanded my mobility of my whole body while also strengthened my knee. Just some food for thought since it really helped me get back to a place where I feel I have zero issues currently.
Try some horsetail. It's good for bone and joint health. I used it when I injured my spine and it helped significantly with the pain and healing. It's not meant to be taken long term, but its worth a try.
That’s interesting!
