Brooo😂😂😂😂😂same
same
Lol. Do greco or sengalse no need for knees
Painful..
Same
Yep, BJJ blue belt here. Been smashing my knees for 4 years now lol Hated every time I would get to training and we had to practice takedowns. I just tried doing the shot like you explained it in my living room and instantly felt the difference. Thanks so much, me and my knees appreciate you
Powerful comment :-)
1 suggestion .... it would be nicer to show it on another person towards the end of the video. Like demo on another person.
Where is Master Ken, when you need him the most ;)
I think I couldn’t get a demo partner that day so I just put something out anyway
@@AlecBaulding
Either way, thanks for the effort. I appreciate your knowledge.
I agree
Looks like we found our first volunteer
Bro, where have you been all my life. You just solved half of my problems.
I just subscribed.
Same bro I was not having a straight back and was not opening my hips when knee drop and was not loading my driving leg
@@RaulRodriguez-mq2zt i go to a 10p gym so I was taught this shit just like he is showing it: properly lol. that said its because the head coach is a wrestler and we have a ton of great wrestlers at the gym
Awesome
Just a side note, if you are old like me and have bad back and hip problems and don't even compete anymore , just doing this as a workout will seriously help you stay moving well
I heard "as efficient as possible." and I liked it already
🙌🏾
This "opening up of the body" once the knee hits the floor is so helpful
💪🏾
@@AlecBaulding great video, going to train this at home until all comes naturally. Then I'm going to spam double leg at the sparring session at the end of the bjj training.
Yes
I’m gonna try this on my cat
What a fantastic and informative breakdown of the double-leg TD! Nobody's ever explained it in this detail before, while simplifying the move at the same time. Thank you Alex #newfan
We use to do the 'duck walk' to help get use to not killing the knees.. Very helpful. And pretty good leg strengthener as well.
Thats exactly how i destroyed my left knee as a begginer on wrestling. Thanks for the tips
Your takedowns videos are the best I've seen on TH-cam so far, really helpful for any wrestling beginners out there
Hope everything works out whatever you're going through rn. Thanks for all the content, always look forward to your videos!
Can’t tell you how many I emphasize the lowering of the level and keeping the back straight and changing directions, great job at showing this!
Great video !
You show the real power of moving through your core, and using your hips.
Jiujitsu guy here and your video helped me so much to correct my mistake of originally driving my knee into the ground. Happy New Year!
Developed bursitis training takedowns in bjj! So glad to have found this vid!
This is honestly the best tutorial I have seen on this move
Thank you so much! I have not seen it being broken down like this, even by coaches at where I train. It's especially useful for a non-athlete like me whose muscles don't follow through with motions that are intuitive to athletic people, without me consciously thinking about each step.
Great video with detailed step-by-step explanation. I'll be checking out more of your stuff.
Thanks for the step by step breakdown Alec.
The best explanation and breakdown I've ever seen of the wrestling shot. Subscribing for sure. Keep up the great content!
Great explanation, trying this tomorrow. Thank you!
Thank you sir for this so nice content, keep going !
Bro you're an excellent teacher. I just started wrestling and have been struggling with this. Much appreciated, from South Africa. 🇿🇦
Awesome my shots always been a big issue in grappling ever since wrestling in highschool. Great video keep it up.
What a great video! Since I started wrestling 1,5 months ago, I always felt pain during the beginning of training, where we had to shoot a takedown. Of course I never knew how to shoot a takedown correctly and always did it with an incorrect form, which brought pain into my knees. After watching this video some couple minutes ago, I shot some slow speedy takedowns in my living room with the form you told and I felt the insane difference between both takedown variants. I’m feeling now, that I can finally shoot a takedown in training worrying about having pain afterwards. Thank you for the explanation.👏
thank you so much for this video. Im a Jiu Jitsu white belt, i wasnt changing levels so like you said i would slam my knee, this is going to help a lot, especially the form about keeping my back straight.
Excellent nice details thank you for posting it ....
Thank you! This really breaks it down for me. I found myself driving my knee into the ground full force most of the time. Just subbed to you!
For me as a beginner wrestler, this video is an awesome STEP BY STEP demonstration of how to shoot…. Thanks brother 👊🏽
Your videos are absolutely incredible man
Brilliant! Thank you so much. This move is a lot more complicated than it seems
This was very detailed and informative! Thank you!! Please do more videos
Thanks a million! I always have problems with my double legs. New sub
Thank you man, I always had a need for speed and would dropped directly on my knee causing a lot of pain. This is definitely something I have to share in my wrestling teams GC!
Thanks for sharing! I’ve done this a lot without really understanding the technique behind it.
Thxx for breaking down the breakdown, very Helpfull!!! 😀
Really well explained and illustrated. Great and instructional video!
Just tried this now on hard floors, the level changes the force of ur knee coming down so much. My knees feel great somehow. Thank you very much
I don't know if you ever check these comments but I have never wrestled but studied your videos a lot. As an ultraheavy weight I prides myself on movement. Most guys in my division don't wrestle as you know. For months I could not get it down but I finally started landing the penetration step as you described. Thanks for the detailed explanations.
Outta nowhere, I see your vids everywhere. Good stuff!
LoL! Its often like the bigger channels were just invented and they fabricate years of history . This channel has low subs tho. Ive begun to realize "they" can alter time. That probably means we can alter the past as well.
Awesome bro. Perfect vid.
Thanks Hodge brother.
Great detailed video on simple most effective thing 🤙
Thanks for the great explanation.
So happy I came across this. I’m that “guy” that crashes to the mat. This is much needed. Thank you brother …
Very well presented. Thank you
I appreciate the way you demonstrated very well thank you
Very detailed explanation great job buddy 👌
This is gold. Thank you so much, I needed this
Happy to help
Flexibility and Mobility helps a lot. Also having a good bodyweight to strength ratio makes a difference. If people's postures are messed up its hard to move in an athletic way.
Thank you for this demo!! Keep it up
What a very detailed explanation I have not seen it like this before. Thx!
Thank you sir well explained 🙏
Thanks for the effort
OMG! Exactly what I was looking for! Thanks soo much!!
this is a fantastic vid! More please
Very nice, been stucking to hip throws and foot sweeps due to lack of succes with these.
Great video bro. Thanks
Fantastic explanation. Fantastic drill. Thank you.
🙏🏾
You’re a good teacher, nice lesson bro thanks.
Great tutorial and instructions
Wrestled with alot of success in high school and college. When I transitioned to MMA it was very difficult to do proper shots since I am right handed and never really shot off my left leg before. It will take a while but focus on good technique and take advice from videos like this from people who actually know what the fuck there talking about. Never give up and never stop improving my guys
Nice details will definately try it out!
Unbelievable! Can't wait to try this.
Excellent step by step! Will be drilling this, thanks
This vid is amazing man,thank you.
Am learning folkstyle, thank you so much for this detailed video
Awesome video man thank you
Super informative!
I am from a country where wrestling is not popular at all so all these basic drills help me a lot, thank´s-
wow! what country?
Chile, sadly wrestling is not popular but judo is not that bad. @@wtfimcrying
@@nicocontreras5366 aw that sucks
superb breakdown.
Awesome breakdown, thank you!
my knees thank you sir!!! great video exactly what I was looking for
guard playing purple belt who mainly does no gi, been spending time at purple focusing on passing, pressure and wrestling and this was huge for good set up for someone whos a self described trash wrestler. so much easier on my knee
This has helped so much, thank you!
One of the great drills i ve ever seen!!
Thanks
Very nice, I like the way you explain things.
such a good video, thank you so much
Thank you, very helpful video! I noticed something else as well. You have a flat feet, just like I do. I have various imbalances and shortened/inflexible muscles in my body, which I thought were caused by my flat feet. Now I see that it's not the problem, the problem was probably the 10 years sitting playing video games that caused the imbalances.
This was the best break down I have ever seen. Respect ✊🏾
🙏🏾
Subscribed. Perfect explanation. This will help my bjj so much…no more shitty double legs and sore knees.
Awesome video bro!!! This is exactly what my son needs !! Let’s see if his skills improve !! Thank you!! 🙏
Happy to help
Great coaching video. Thanks.
Thank you. I need to update this video since it’s been a few years
Thank you. Good stuff sir
Thanks a lot brother.
Yep, I learned me something. Nice job.
Great breakdown
Thanks bro its my first year wrestling and i have a good feelig about it i feel like i got potential to be better
Very good explanation
Great tutorial - thanks man.
Great video. Great personality. I wish I could learn from you in person. But in the meantime, thanks for the video
Excellent instruction!
He is Well Spoken and Likable! Thumbs Up!New Sub.
Can't believe I just found this. No one else breaks it down. Thanks homie!
No problem!
This video was so useful, thanks a lot
What a nice breakdown!! 😁👊
Watching this as a white belt, I feel blessed. I love takedown and single legs and that explosive efficiciency that wrestling has. Because I feel like its what sets wrestling apart from BJJ. Hope this vid helps me be a step above the competition
I really need to train some wrestling. Thinking about moving somewhere just to train it
Totally necromancing this thread, but thank you. I am going to drill this until it is second nature. I have been training BJJ and am pretty consistent with my shots and double legs, but recently a new guy that is 60lbs heavier and 14 years younger just joined the gym and I couldn't snap a double leg on him. His weight and strength is keeping my game honest by showing the imperfections in my setup. This gave the answers I was looking for. Me and my joints thank you.
If your knees swell/hurt even with proper form; I recommend cliff keen kneepads
@@gecko.3058 Or just turtle up until the big guy gets bored
Thank you for the breakdown
