GO BASIC! Lockdown Half Guard Fundamental sweeps

[@DougRWms]

Thanks for this great breakdown. I've been a madman at holding guys in lockdown, but it's been tough for me to do anything but stall from there. I see about 5 basic things I've been doing wrong, and starting this week I'm going to work these three techniques like crazy.

[@danieldunn4769]

+Douglas Williams i have similar issues and it seems its what most ppl look at the position as glad i found this video

[@joshcannon4947]

it's alllllll a bout the whip up and constantly off balancing your opponent. also pinching your knees really tight

[@dirtkills]

Lock down wont work if you get smashed flat on your back and without an underhook its mission impossible to sweep.... unless u got more tricks from lockdown or deephalf lockdown.

[@dirtkills]

Also lockdown can help u stall certain sub attempts on you... be prepared to protect your neck everytime if youre gonna play deep half lockdown

[@Helios601]

How are you now with it? lol 😂

[@MikeySmithJones]

Purple belt from 13 years ago here. Started teaching a colleague after work and we are training for an hour once a week. Got him to start drilling 5 minutes everyday before we goto the gym to workout. This video was a GREAT review with all the details I needed for moves I used a lot many years ago. I am going to use my daily drill time this and next week to practice these three moves. I know it is 9 years too late, but THANK YOU!

[@KC-zd9tc]

1. Old school sweep 0:52 2. Plan B 2:16 3. Electric chair 3:20

[@alex96610]

I hardly leave comments, but man I love this video. You gave so many alternatives to getting into a better position from half guard. Thank you!

[@elblueblazer]

Ive been using lockdown for a bit and never noticed this simple sweep. I pulled it off a couple times today in training. thanks

[@tim707max]

this is the most useful thing ive leared to do from half guard so far

[@alexmelendez4311]

Ayyye! Your the guy that exposed that fake black belt ! lol awesome technique very help full oss 🙇

[@stevenvaughn2163]

Great Video Good info and perfect speed. Your not starting and stopping with your technique or instruction which makes it much easier to understand. I have a hard time with the first step getting my body to move simultaneously lifting the opponent with both my legs and my arms to give me the space to maneuver into the next part of the position. I also keep forgetting is to keep the brace on their hips when I moved under them and so when I got the lift right the guy's weight was immediately crushing me back down to the mat and I had not room to maneuver under them for the sweep. I wasn't sure what I was doing wrong until I watch this video as soon as I saw your hands on his hips and creating space I knew exactly what I was doing wrong. Thank you for helping me I can't wait to apply the things I learned from your video in my next class.

[@victornice858]

This comment, coming to you 5 years later brother, I hope that you are a Black belt now!!

10th planet strats

[@definitelynottigerwhitten5865]

haha the way he puts it away like nothing happened

[@bobnice3044]

I watched this years ago and lost it, thankfully i found this first sweep again.

[@mikimiyazaki]

i just learned that lockdown technique, the only difference is my trainer had us go straight to side control from grabbing the toes unhooking pulling toes then getting to half guard.

[@greadion4]

Great video, I think its a good breakdown of Eddie Bravo's system.

[@serekithegreat]

Been training the 10th Planet system for a couple of months now and it's definitely eye-opening. Very practical techniques for the cage and self defense.

[@mongolchiuud8931]

Its a awesome judo technique.

[@itsspookie]

muaythai bjj Lmao what?

[@tdogable]

We went over this in class yesterday. This really helps clarify

[@carlosgranah]

Thank you sharing this!!! Lockdown is a position I want to work on.

[@counterhit121]

Great vid. Just the right speed and explanation that lays out our three primary options from lockdown.

[@lowbias]

Super details. Thank you for the great video! We just covered these three and it was awesome to come here to get extra details.

[@germantaboada5843]

Woah the way you teach ! I been lacking on my lock and my coach always gets mad at me but woah u just explained it

[@elenchus]

Very clean technique, very helpful. Thanks.

[@iAmPesukone]

This is super helpful and easy to digest. I hope I'll be able to make use of these soon, since I use lockdown a bunch to slow bottom half guard situations down and hardly know what to do with it.

[@GHOSTNINJASD]

Man this is so helpful. Ive been stuck in lockdown and not sure where to go next.

[@MrMultitubing]

I love the lockdown, I always use it to sweep or to just frustrate my opponent in order to recover full guard.

[@jacogast]

thanks for comming to my school

[@sweetblueberrypie]

What a great teacher! You're students are lucky!

[@EvoBJJ]

[@keaton8182]

Awesome content! I keep revisiting this video. These have become my A game from bottom half guard. The expression on peoples face when you catch them in the electric chair is priceless.

[@pauljamesbekanich7565]

great stuff. One of the most effective lockdown series tutorials I've seen. Osss

[@davidekero4526]

[@shanehanson1268]

Excellent breakdown sir!

[@Vikingfan13]

What's the best way to move a heavier larger opponent when in lockdown?Sometimes find it impossible to move them,try to play electric chair too but sometimes hard to get the leg

[@voodootech8424]

Nice details! Thanks!

[@EvoBJJ]

VOODOOTECH Thank you! You got it!

[@westcoastbrotha]

Thank you for the video!!!!

[@kumakorira3588]

Thank you very very much!

[@kaistigerboy]

Awesome mate I really enjoyed the lesson OSs from Australia

[@jimmyk4445]

This is the first Evo BJJ video ive watched. Just searched lockdown sweeps and this popped up. Great vid, I am subscribed.

[@dannyjames7911]

good stuff man, this has been my go to for a couple weeks now

[@elizabethbee1806]

Got stuck with this at a tournament today bc I never heard of it. I managed to win, but it was effective while my opponent was holding it. I just got lucky he tired out.

[@judorican973]

Great video nice details 👍

[@EvoBJJ]

Thank you! Glad to hear

[@toonice555]

Thank you very much. How are preventing the d'arce or guillotine when you're getting the underhook? My partners are usuall able to lock it up and i am almost always able to sweep them and then pass to side control but once in a while a more experienced partner will finish me with it. I'd ideally like to not have them lock up the d'arce or guillotine at all. Is it just a matter of getting deeper and faster? Thank you for any advice.

[@joancahill9756]

Great stuff professor just starting to understand this stuff, this is so useful 👍

[@johnnguyen6026]

I love this.!

[@jasond6602]

love this video! thanks so much

[@saveourship27]

Mike! My man! We're ready for the electric chair series!!

[@JeezVince]

Love the lockdown!

[@thomasstevenson1238]

great video thanks for this.

[@MrOldSchoolSF]

Great video!

[@Phospion]

The whip up is effective when you have the underhook and the other guy is just holding on to a headlock? I find really difficult to old school guys (its my default sweep from half guard) when they just latch onto my head like that

[@peteramarillo8952]

great video!!!!!!!! keep the videos coming bro

[@maltedueholm8874]

this helped me so much

[@xcharlie15]

Great vid Thanks.

[@anthonycervantes719]

Nice explanation. Great camera work too.

[@BJJGRAPPLEBEAST]

Great video

[@TheMrjetdoc35]

Subscribed! Awesome stuff

[@babyjsmomma1]

I keep getting trapped and only am able to hold onto one leg. I'll definitely be trying to apply these techniques!

[@GlennWallace1]

Great instruction. Thanks.

[@EvoBJJ]

Glenn Wallace Thanks Glenn!

[@SergioArroyoSailing]

[@EvoBJJ]

You're very welcome Sergio

[@blueseaturtle6031]

(00:24, 00:30,1:27, 5:13,5:50 lockdown) (Sweep 1,00:54,1:08) (Sweep 2,2:45) (Sweep 3,3:25,4:34) Note: keep the under hook in order to survive in bottom half guard

[@drewdonham]

i always get stuck on the whip up, they grab a hold of my neck and I cant get them high enough to go under their leg?

[@x-Musashi-x]

Thank you

[@kelvindiamond9446]

Awesome!!!!

[@ryanwolf2229]

Love it

[@regulardude7764]

Is this a good technique for tall grapplers?

[@CDs_YouTube_]

Thanks

[@WilkieaSt]

In the first sweep couldn't the guy on top just post out with his left arm to prevent the sweep? I'm new so probably missing something

[@ktabon1141]

I just started today

[@berningsandwiches2662]

The whip down has been difficult in ghi because it leaves my neck undefended. Any pointers?

[@xxkillingwavexxswag9355]

train no gi

[@bernardod.c.1193]

Thanks!!!!

[@bebejoon3664]

Good stuff

[@laurieafc8990]

Heyy quick question Is the electric chair ibjjf legal ?

[@fabinunez4373]

thanx !

[@chadwilliams5756]

Sweet!! I’ve been having trouble executing all of this! Can’t wait to try it out!!! P.S. “I don’t roll” Lol 😂

[@victornice858]

God damned great instruction!

[@rhys580]

hey man, great video. hopefully i can say this without coming across as an a1 douchebag but your old school sweep that step where you disengage lockdown, if you skip that and complete the sweep its easier to unhook right in to side control instead of ending up in half guard. when you swept with electric chair you actually did exactly what im suggesting and ended up in side control.

[@richarddukard8989]

what if he's got his arm behind your head at 0:43 so you cant lift him up?

[@twan5555]

Just seeing this now. Can you address one thing Professor? I'm tall (6') and skinny w/long skinny legs. I LIVE on the lockdown but I'm just a sucky blue belt and all i ever do is use it to stall/relieve pressure. I have a LOT of trouble "Hoisting" my partner/opponent over me (the "touchdown" pose) and then getting to my elbow. Any tips for that or just UNDERHOOK UNDERHOOK UNDERHOOK! Btw- thanks for the great vids.

[@ChamorruWarrior]

Judo move, right?

[@michaelpalladino6300]

Yes Sir, the term in Judo for this technique is "Ashi Kannuki" which translates as Transversal Blocking of Leg

[@dtmfool789]

is that green shorts guy from the fake black belts gym?

[@adameisen3169]

Fundamentals = most effective

[@blake9980]

Are you an IBJJF recongnized brown belt ?

[@michaelmedel2449]

2:51 move that Kudos bar bro I'm shooting a tutorial!

[@illwill83nigga]

[@EvoBJJ]

+WillDinero This is my channel, I have to upload more content

[@illwill83nigga]

+Evo BJJ yeah man I liked this video a lot helped me with my lockdown game

[@primate4]

Nice video and breakdown!!!!!

[@drilltrolltv3680]

This shit is 🔥😍🤙🏾

[@ThelmaChin126]

[@keithshingletonjr8537]

Who else here because of Rogan and Fridman lol

[@pacificlanguage2011]

These kind of moves always susceptible to his left knee strike to your head.

[@jedschuler6994]

2:50 is that seriously a protein bar on the mat? Guys, etiquette please.

[@lujitsu1251]

Calm down bro, it's not like it's the operating room or something. Atleast the guy is there, listening and trying to eat right, stop being such a stick in the mud.

[@lujitsu1251]

Cyber Stein I'm with ya cyber, I just hate to be crazy with rules, when there seem to be so many in life, I just think with a hobby, we can afford to be more forgiving. I personally would never eat on the mat, or even in my dojo.

[@StratOnFire]

He's not eating so it's ok!

[@UserName-ii1ce]

Yeah it should've been chicken breast, protein bars are for kids

[@abhisheksajwan8877]

Too hot

[@devineisner]

These are really high percentage

[@mongolchiuud8931]

The lockdown, my favorite Judo technique in half guard.
