[@lazerousspazerous6182]

This video sent me down the rabbit hole of learning hand traps to add to my style and it pairs really well with a long guard/low guard it's pretty neat how effective these are at find/creating openings against a solid tight guard and allows the to cut closer angles without worrying too much about walking into a counter if you get a solid lock on their hands

[@MMAShredded]

cheers!

[@kadencaldwell]

with ur experience how hard did you have to swat their hands down to throw the strike?

[@blackbeasley23]

Whoever disliked the video got hand trapped in the gym

[@MMAShredded]

haha!

[@jaydenpenales7570]

Hahaha, definitely

[@benjamintodd2186]

I like how simple and clear Jeff explains these techniques, always good to see another upload👍

[@MMAShredded]

thanks Ben!

[@COACH_ANTHONY_MMA]

Bro amazing video I will try some of these in sparring. I also love how you actually show video of you using your techniques even when they are unsuccessful in the attempt.

[@MMAShredded]

thank you!!

[@shikharbajracharya2421]

This is great stuff. I study JKD and I've been focusing on where trapping can be useful in sparring. It's validating to see other people doing this. Keep up the great work.

[@MMAShredded]

thank you!

[@RevInstone]

Love it. Very functional. Love how you showed fails as well as success.

[@MMAShredded]

thank you!!

[@Normantime]

Probably the best hand trapping video I've found, showing how to adjust and follow up with failure scenarios. Much appreciated

[@MMAShredded]

🙏🙏🙏

[@dragonsoldier187]

I realised how awesome hand traps were after watching Giorgio Petrosyan demolishing his opponents with them while making them so seamless. Awesome video, Jeff! Will definitely be taking notes! :'D

[@MMAShredded]

sweet thanks for watching!

[@ives3572]

Something new again from you Jeff, that I'll incorporate and practice in my MMA training.

[@MMAShredded]

awesome!!

[@ozeasoze9787]

I love your videos. Some guys just show the moves on theory, and whith a student who dosen´t move or react to their explanations. You show the Technique and how it works in reality. That is amazing.

[@andrewparker7110]

Your videos have been a huge help. They help me bridge the gap i need to cross from light sparing to fight team sparing and traning.

[@MMAShredded]

glad to hear man! thanks for watching!

[@arnoldgurung6427]

Hey bro I’m new to sparring can you make a video on how not to flinch when someone attacks you or build up confidence in fight and also can you share about how to use combos in fight with proper execution

[@MMAShredded]

hey try this video, it may help a bit: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jZuVi5J6lt2krdE

@@MMAShredded oh thanks a lot brother god bless u n ur family hope for a great future for u ☺️

[@cloud_monkey422]

I’m also new to sparring and I’ve tried all kinds of drills and everything you can think of but the only thing to really help me is actually doing it. Finding ppl who are better than you and who will take it easy but not too easy so you’re not learning. I used to flinch real bad and now I’m getting a lot better in just a few spars (after tons of everything you can think of lol) If you have Instagram you should check mine out. You can literally see the progression and evolution from me being super nervous to now (still new but not as nervous) It sounds as if we are only a few months if that apart so it would be cool to follow you as well dan_elgordito

[@ajw9975]

For sure, you just gotta spar more and gain the experience.

[@letmegetuhhh3959]

Honestly the main thing is just working your defense and sparring go against guys who will punish bad defense but won't lay you out lol. Once you get comfortable defending you won't flinch. The flinch comes from being nervous and overreacting to everything.

[@patsycline4019]

Love your videos Jeff, thak you for all the great content! I'm currently waiting for a knee surgery and it might be in a while due to Covid, but watching this keeps me in touch with Muay Thaï and it feels great!

[@MMAShredded]

thanks bro good luck on your surgery!! I wish you a speedy recovery!

[@ianwall8008]

One of my favorite channels

[@MMAShredded]

thanks man!

[@PetrilloCinema]

I noticed in boxing sparring yesterday that many of these are more difficult (but still effective) to perform against an opponent with a high and tight Muay Thai style guard (particularly if they are as tall or taller than you). I ended up landing some real hand traps (especially that rear hand paw to short cross -> rear hand paw to liver hook)💰 But at other times I’d basically just smack their guard and it worked the same✊ The only time I got caught was on entry for a liver hook when I half assed the hand trap setup and didn’t cut an angle. If I’m too far on the angle, the punch is too long & less effective. If I don’t cut the angle and I didn’t really immobilize their arm, then I get a left hand to the dome. I love being able to come back to these videos and see what I did wrong🙏 appreciate you sir!

[@kalenhouse]

This is my third time watching and it never gets old. Love all these hand traps. Gonna try some tonight at kickboxing class.

[@MMAShredded]

I know this is towards MMA & Muay Thai. & of course I KNOW the techniques have been around for a LONG TIME. But I’ll always connect hand traps to George Foreman. Dude was a beast, Daniel Cormier even brought his boxing style into his own gameplan as he’s stated before. As always amazing content sir!

2:00 This one is trap like JKD trapping... the other ones are traps but not JKD/Wing Chun traps, are distractions.. The final goal in many are kick, but kick without these previous traps is mote difficult than with the traps (tricks). I was trying to find Wing Chun traps kind, or even Muay Thai similar techniques, but this was very good anyway 👏.
