BJJ Technique - Leg Lock Escape - Cross Ankle Technique - Coach Zahabi

* Now available on Brave browser -In this video I go over one of the most important preventative leg lock escapes in the game. At Tristar Gym we do a lot of leg locks and we have over the years learned that the best way to prevent being leg locked is by being very aware of entries into leg lock and starting the escape early. Trying to escape a leg lock when it is on deep can be very difficult. In this video I go over one of the best ways to avoid being put into a deep leg lock situation.

Tristar Gym another wicked vid firas. Would love one day to come down and spend some time training with u

[@georgeperdikas4899]

Firas go post on dtube and steemit man I know you are involved in crypto with Dash but try these platforms ou.

[@velezjiujitsu]

This by far was one of the, if not the best leglock defense instructional I have seen online. Simple, effective, and well explained.

[@RussianConnection22]

I’m a white belt competing against purples in 3 weeks; I came for the leg lock defense and now added a new technique to the algorithm 🤙🏽

[@1Up_Gang]

Wow! I train with absolute limb reapers so I'm so excited to try this, thanks as always Mr. Zahabi

[@joma0305]

driztel93 bro, how is it going? Give some feedback? Are you alive? Your limbs are still with you?))

[@davidespy1133]

Did it work? It's been 3 Years! Can you type using voice command please?

[@1Up_Gang]

@@joma0305 hahaha never seen this 😂 all my limbs are perfectly fine thanks to firas. Even a year after your question

[@1Up_Gang]

@@davidespy1133 after three years i can genuinely say its legit! Keep in mind the urgency is HIGH, i train with real killers that will simply lock it in with no going back if given the time. When it becomes instinct your defense is a problem for leg lockers!

[@davidespy1133]

@@1Up_Gang Than you for your genuine response

[@anon2034]

Very simple yet very effective leg lock escape. Thanks!

[@rivhaaken9763]

If i had a wish for a Coach it would be Mr. Zahabi for sure! Just the best, thanks for the free education!

[@grumpyae86]

Thanks Firas.

[@nickavge8275]

[@Finger_Lock_]

Thank you Firas!

[@frankysharpp]

Thank you!

[@med1na33]

[@peteramarillo8952]

Absolutely awesome!!!!! Great move. Works for me when rolling

[@Steven-rp8zo]

good, simple techniques are best!

[@oscargarza4524]

Thank you. I enjoyed it and plan to apply it. I must admit that I really enjoyed Dananer's presence on Joe Rogan's podcast and I would love to see you there. Or at least you could record yourself with Eddie Bravo

[@paulzenchuk7807]

Brilliant!!!!!!

[@TakedownBreakdown]

Thank you. I am sending this to my buddy who has a match coming up. Great simple effective defense 👍

[@hikmatkhan8034]

Good stuff coach! Keap them coming sir

[@anthonysiu6010]

Good escape

[@andrewkim6037]

Thanks Coach.

[@MASTERLUKEYSLOC]

You make it look so easy why are leglocks so seemingly dominant in competition?

[@AshishHekre]

Brilliant

[@ulfderulfte]

Genius! Thank you!

[@mmaman6931]

I love this channel

[@dcDOC19]

I’m late to the party but I’ll echo what everyone else has said... Thank you the vid!!

[@googlrc]

“and if it doesn’t work, R.I.P. ankle” 🤣

[@jongrappler287]

I need this escape in my game, getting leg locked left and right!

[@CoachZahabi]

Lol happy to hear it this will help I promise just be sure to start the escape early

[@KingAzzy_123]

What is the leg.rolling takedown called at the start of the video

[@cadetriestocode]

great content man

[@sfcxxv8319]

outstanding!

[@markhill8150]

Just a question. Are you not more vulnerable to the straight ankle lock by pointing your toes forward like that while escaping? I understand that is to help free the leg. These videos are amazing for my training. Thank you.

[@Steven-rp8zo]

I would also add that if you do feel the slightest bit of pressure on any leg lock then TAP QUICK!!! There's no shame in taping but if someone tears up your ankle or knee then that injury may affect you for the rest of your life. Leg locks are no joke.

[@bas613]

What happens if your opponent goes for an straight anklelock, don't play into his cards if I am pointing my toes?

[@wemylee]

Awesome pointers! What about escaping when you are on bottom and the person on top moves to a leg lock (like when you attacked the leg near the end of the video?) Any thoughts about creating space when you don't have the momentum of the sweep to work with?

[@successbyanymeansnecessary]

Where do I start in developing mental toughness?

[@CoachZahabi]

Hmm I need to make a video on that.

[@mouthguardcomic]

Perfect!!

[@romeopagulayan6261]

Looks good using Brave!

[@maritimer902]

love it!

[@gspdiaz7721]

thank you for your effort, firas! do you still plan on breaking down rory's fight with the champ himself?

[@CoachZahabi]

gspdiaz yes I think so. Will try to post a video on that soon

[@hikmatkhan8034]

Tristar Gym damn ! That will be epic. Thanks in advance

[@efficiencyjiujitsu417bjj2]

So legit!

[@successschool975]

Coach could you do a video on how to fall correctly?

[@CoachZahabi]

I guess so but it won't be very exciting.

[@kennedic4403]

DOPE!!

[@yosh9w305]

when you insert the cross ankle, do you need to get a delariva to insert it or can I just go shin to shin? Thanks in advance

[@ZacharyMaslany]

Gangster! This is science

[@micheldavidovich6940]

Hey Firas! The guy attacking the leglock is attacking from single leg X, is there a cross ankle variation for a 50/50 type situation? Thanks as always, awesome channel

[@CoachZahabi]

yes you can do it from 50/50 but get it going early!

[@machadobjj]

Michel Davidovich This was my ? Too. Also wondering if it works from the saddle as well.

[@anouarrezrazi2897]

Instruction unclear, hoptal 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@jafarlofton1228]

Instead of the cross ankle to the back of the knee 🦵why not just push kick his behind😂❓wouldn’t it be safer for the leg that’s helping you defend the leg that’s being attached 😬 but I have a great feeling you do that sometimes 😁 like 😎 not today buddy 🤟🏾

[@billgates8744]

That danaher leg lock system will get broken down soon hopefully by Bjj scout

[@paragon1782]

Danaher on the Rogan podcast said that whenever you do a leg lock always neutralize the other leg first. Which would kill this escape. Maybe if you were cool like him firas you could be on the Rogan podcast as well.... so sad. Lol

[@paragon1782]

It was and I know. Lol I just want him to go on the podcast I think it would be even more interesting than his mentors episode.

[@hikmatkhan8034]

Paragon of Growth nd ppl on mma websites make fun of youtube comments. This kinda chat is very very rare in thefe. Keep being nice. Well i think his story with gsp and tristars beginning will be epic if they come to it...

[@oglow100]

Thank you Firas!

[@giannimfc]
