Ankle Picks From Everywhere - EASY Takedown FOR BJJ

[@aaronbenzrihembjj6014]

Hey guys my new instructional on ankle picks is now live - thanks for the support 🙏🏻 bjjfanatics.com/products/basics-to-advanced-ankle-picks-for-jiu-jitsu-by-aaron-benzrihem

[@jonathanamoros6148]

Commenting on an old video, but this video has helped me so much with my ankle pick takedowns in the last 3 months. I added a small movement of my own by dropping down as Aaron shows here, but in an angular motion, almost off center as i fall. I noticed this causes uke to step forward and pivot the slightest bit. This puts a little more weight on that foot which gives me just the smallest bit of extra time to grab that ankle before they have a chance to pull it back. Awesome video and i continue to study it to this day!

[@johnteds4761]

Huge honor to watch this video.

[@iloveibanez92]

Amazing video. I've been trying to work on my ankle pick for a good 5 months. Collected a bunch of different videos but now I see you've systemized this attack much better than my white belt brain could have 😂. I really appreciate your content.

[@aaronbenzrihembjj6014]

aaf awesome man, I’m glad you enjoyed it! Osss 🤙🏻

[@gutse007]

Best Takedown Ankle Pick I've ever seen. Thank you so much !!

[@joejitsu4444]

Hi Aaron. I teach fundamentals classes and I have improved my ankle pick instruction with some of the ideas in this video. Thanks a lot for the great stuff. Oss! - Joe

[@aaronbenzrihembjj6014]

Awesome to hear!

[@johncannon3593]

New subscriber. Blue belt (was nearly purple) coming back from a five year layoff of training and trying to brush the rust off as fast as possible. I stumbled across your video because ankle pick used to be my go-to but I haven't done it in years and yours was the best video I found on the subject. Kudos.

[@bookofdaveandsteve]

This has everything from my last in person class plus a lot more context - I appreciate it! Your content kept me going when I couldn't train for medical reasons. I hope the move went well and your life outside of KZbin is going well Oss!

[@JSMinstantcoaching]

Very good stuff. I like the way you share many contexts to apply the same technique, encouraging us to explore more.

[@aaronbenzrihembjj6014]

JSM instant coaching thank you!

[@bebelei245]

Hi Aaron, thanks for that video. It was super nice and easy to understand it really helped me a lot. ❤ Thank you again.

[@timam2004]

The last ankle pic you show when your opponent is in combat base is one I realized early on as a white belt and utilize often. Now I'm trying to develop my ankle picks from standing since wrestling shots can be harder.

[@davidvalentine6608]

Love both your jiu-jitsu and your sport fishing. My two passions are the same. Keep catching and passing.

[@shortfusedynamite5166]

Love the vid coach, grabbing that ankle and putting my op on his back is such a fun counter to the butt scooters.

[@davidsinclair5370]

Amazing video - both with regards to the core concepts and also gold like faking guard pull, or going after the other foot, etc. I'm new white belt, and have been failing at this. So appreciated to see this! Greetings from Hong Kong!😀

[@Rjmac813]

Phenomenal video, thanks for putting it out there!

[@mattisjalakas4045]

Phenomenal instructional!

[@timothyelhajj8404]

AAron, I had success with the ankle pick the other night, I owe it to watching this video on a loop 😂🤣🙏, thanks brother! Really good instruction and explanation of concepts!

[@aaronbenzrihembjj6014]

Timothy Elhajj AMAZING! I’m happy to hear that man. It’s my best takedown and one of my best sweeps.

[@areuokay4984]

The pulling guard bamboozle is crazy cool

🙏🏻

[@Swentibold]

very clear explanation, thank you!

[@henritandradinata2230]

Thanks for all the great contents in ur channel .. question for this video ... are you not vulnerable to the flying triangle when u do the sit down before the ankle pick?

[@aaronbenzrihembjj6014]

Henri Tandradinata for the initial sit down and same side ankle pick you are for sure. You just have to be cognitive of that and if they jump it, make sure your knee is in and you end up in single leg x. It’s not a common move or reaction but it’s a definite threat.

[@henritandradinata2230]

@@aaronbenzrihembjj6014 thanks... I will definitely try to incorporate this into my game

[@MTNMAX88]

Really awesome stuff. Thank you 🙏

[@스텔-c6o]

Man these are move I can implement right way nice

[@CyberwaveOrchestra]

Get Aarons ankle pick course while its on the insiders club discount :)

[@zulukia1]

Good stuff, thank you.

[@carnalito80]

Cool! I assumed you would always PUSH with the lapel hand, is that never the case, or is pulling just in the cross scenario? (As in same side = push, cross side = "wheel like pull")

[@suneetsingh36]

Hi - in this move, doesnt the way you are falling straight down to do the ankle pick, hurt the knees, especially if done again and again?

[@af4396]

Yupp. He is catching some of his weight on the collar of the opponent, but overtime that is still a lot of weight going directly into the knees over and over again. If you're worried about it, there are other variations if you have good reach, or there is also the knee pick.

[@LarsAndersenFrihed]

Great instructions! Thx.

[@amartailor1678]

I literally felt the same about that ankle pick from combat base. I always wondered (still do) why people let me just.. push them over. I also feel similar when someone sits back too hard and I just shove them back - it's so simple it can't be real.

[@Janumanji]

do you have videos on competition shooting some ankle picks??

[@aaronbenzrihembjj6014]

Jano Iriarte yes there are two matches on this channel where I land some

[@andreyong]

That is such good advice , thank you Aaron! Brilliant

[@aaronbenzrihembjj6014]

Andre Yong thank you

[@marcush5771]

Really great video! Gonna try this tomorrow!

[@andrewd8830]

when is it more advantageous to go on your knees rather than the 3 point stance?

[@aaronmanchajr.2664]

great video man! really helpful insight

[@aaronbenzrihembjj6014]

Thank you!

[@fordguyfordguy]

excellent instruction brother!

[@aaronbenzrihembjj6014]

Andrew Johnson thank you!

[@TimoBaader]

9:30 I heard keanu reeves does jiu jitsu

[@Jop_Kop]

That makes sense

[@orestisnalmpantis]

I really like this but I always tend to do it with a cross grip to the lapel and not a same side grip. You think a same side grip is much more beneficial?

[@aaronbenzrihembjj6014]

orestis nalmpantis yes, the cross grip has way less pulling power for the final off balance and way more give for counters. It can definitely work though.

[@orestisnalmpantis]

@@aaronbenzrihembjj6014 ohhhh man wish me luck changing the grip after all this years :P Thanks dude, good content

[@aaronbenzrihembjj6014]

orestis nalmpantis good luck! Try it out!

[@orestisnalmpantis]

@@aaronbenzrihembjj6014 Thanks I ll report back !

[@andrewferris1903]

@@aaronbenzrihembjj6014 You should try pushing instead of pulling with the cross collar, that grip works better when you force their weigth onto their back leg in order to immobolize the foot for the ankle pick.. Watch Cael Sanderson or Penn State vids, they tend to push/circle in the opposing direction.

[@jonbenet6669]

This worked literally 1 second into my rolling.

[@aldorox]

hello! great video. i have a question: does the seated ankle pick from collar guard scores points?

[@aaronbenzrihembjj6014]

Yes

[@cloudmaster3235]

First time I've seen someone with a watch doing bjj. : )

[@lucenajjj]

What's the name of this technique in judo?

Thank you !

[@tricyclemishap]

🔥🔥🔥

[@johnteds4761]

There's a video where Relson Gracie rolls with a white belt and he snags that ankle pick a ton.

[@flyffreak93]

Is this bad for your knee?

[@UncleRambone]

Dang I cant wait to drill this.

[@Canadian587]

Counter all those ankle picks with a knee to the??? 😅

[@ratherbesurfing1865]

siiiiiiik

[@Hekkler72]

Best way to get your take down is not let them get 2 hands on you. Fight for your grips. Don't let someone get both their hands on. It's like watching a kids Judo class

[@mikemichaels4500]

When I hit the "gimmicky sweep" I sometimes stand up and celebrate ( just to be a D bag).

My dumbass lost a gold medal from that combat base ankle pick.

[@michaeld2716]

You should not leave your arm in your opponents chest. An arm bar is easy for the opponent to do.
