    It's so hard to find BJJ takedown fundamentals that I had to go to the wrestling page instead. Thank you for this.

    @atdyeam1605 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Love this channel, found you today and already subscribed. Going to go through the whole fundamentals playlist. I was wondering if you could do a video though on the order we should focus on these things? As an adult whos come to bjj with no wrestling experience, there's so much to focus on. Hands, head placement, footwork, stance, gripping, distance etc. And that's before I've even shot for the takedown.
    A video about which order we should focus on these would be great. As in, for the first couple weeks, just focus on stance. Then when that is feeling good, start focusing on footwork. Then focus on hand fighting. Then moving your opponent. Then distance. Then shooting, then finally the actual takedown. These are just examples as I don't actually know but a video outlining this sort of info would be great.
    I don't have the benefit of spending hours every day at school working on my wrestling, but I get a 2-3 classes a week and it's only briefly when sparring before it goes to ground that I can actually work on these things, so knowing what to prioritise would be amazing. Sorry for the long post, your videos are great and I'm already learning heaps! Thanks a lot.

    Hi, not sure if you'll still read this but had a question about lead leg and it's importance. I also saw you mention you trained striking in the description of the video so thought you'd be the best person to ask... If you are cross training and eventually want to develop wrestling, BJJ and striking, would it not be more beneficial to swap lead legs to the one that is your striking stance lead leg? How important is lead leg in wrestling compared to lead leg in striking? In your explanation, my lead leg would be my right but in a boxing stance i'd have my left leg forward. Or should i have different lead legs anyway....? Thanks for all the content - a huge help!

    • @WrestlingUniversity
      @WrestlingUniversity  2 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      You may have an unorthodox style, which I’m all for, just be sure to prioritize your leg position first and foremost. Whichever leg is more comfortable to have forward, keep that one forward (for you the left) and keep whichever leg feels best to push off of to shoot (for you your right leg), keep that one back. Keep in mind there will never be perfect alignment with your dominant hand and dominant leg. Personally I’m left handed, but feel better dexterity with my right hand when I wrestle for some reason. This causes me to be more active with my lead hand-often times reaching with my right/lead hand first which is a sort of cardinal sin in American wrestling, but it never got me taken down like most coaches said it would. So pay attention to the fundamentals, but also allow your natural style to grow as you learn more about wrestling. Wrestling is an art that’s personal and specific so have fun learning and growing into your natural, specific tendencies! 🤼

    • @WrestlingUniversity
      @WrestlingUniversity  2 ปีที่แล้ว +10

      You definitely want the ability to move backwards. Being able to bait your opponent by using their aggression against them is incredibly effective and useful. You can do this by backing away from a forward moving opponent, giving them space to generate even more forward momentum and right before they make contact-fake with a reach/head tap and then shoot underneath them. You see it all the time at the highest levels of wrestling and mma. Don’t limit your movement brother.
