Firas Zahabi's Back Attack Sequence (IMPORTANT DETAILS)

[@Beutings]

I remember seeing your "one weird tip to win any street fight" all those years ago. Man how far you have come! That's mad inspiring.

[@yomumma7803]

it's a pretty good tip at that, knowing you have a slight upper hand can mean a lot!

[@iknowilookdumbwhenisaythis5593]

and it was just having a mouthpiece in your pocket hahah

[@tony_fanta]

god the snaps help so MUCH at focusing

[@Ardeact]

yeah i tend to lose focus around 5 seconds

[@uaebikers]

And annoying at the same time lol

[@Pfsif]

@@uaebikers Really F.....ing annoying.

[@jasonlazyboy]

I was waiting for him to click with his toe

[@Staytrue54]

I would of NEVER of focused without the snapping lol

[@Kev80ification]

Firas is a real master! And Shane and Firas have good chemistry together!

[@tot0sphonesaka64]

Kevin Morley I miss Baba jenkins

[@Kurrkabin]

Yeah, they got a lot of work done from the behind the back

[@fl260]

Firas is sharing some gems for Christmas! Thanks for distributing it, Santa Fazen!

[@conspiracychris4742]

Jeeze I love firas

[@suoutamaki14]

I wish firas was my personal coach, or my best friend...or even my dad.

[@chenchi6623]

tru

[@tarik4283]

shane "i'm a big fan of massage but i just dont like people touching me" also shane my whole career is based on being touched and touching people

[@dadthelad]

Bizarre product plug! Let's face it, the only thing getting massaged by that drilldo is Shane's prostate.

[@dalhadelhedolydoly8868]

There's a huge fucking diference between those touch

[@KM-04]

Firas is a WIZARD!!!

[@noside2930]

Firas 'no thumb to find' Zahabi

[@Staytrue54]

Noside 29 someone should break his finger so he can’t snap anymore :)

[@rameezpatel8784]

Josh Gomar is everything ok at home?

[@alrumuller9300]

Firas is an absolute master at teaching.

[@slavicvolk]

Ok I’m a 4 stripe blue and never been told about the around the head counter to get into guard or the pinkie control. This is my new favorite rnc video

[@the_ofa]

How long have you been doing bjj?

[@slavicvolk]

AU7 almost 2 yrs

[@dindin5284]

Shane: tryna find thumb Firas: so anyway i started choking

[@chenchi6623]

xD

[@PsychologyOfTheFight]

One of the best coaches in the game. Thank you for uploading this brotha, happy holidays

[@leocaballerorojo2348]

Amazing, simply amazing! this is the quintessential tutorial. It makes easy to comprehend a very, high-technical move. I have been clapping for 20 minutes.

[@meowmeowone8479]

Firas: "Hide the thum." Dana: "Who needs a thum?"

[@meowmeowone8479]

@Amusis No, no, no, leesen, leesen. SLAP! It's thum, t-h-u-m, I know you guys don't like this, t-h-u-m!

[@stephenvc]

wtf I literally just had this class a few hours ago and still I'm learning loads! o.O That back swim escape was sick btw, I'm totally trying that next class

[@Muzzle801]

Firas is a legend. I've loved him on Joe Rogan Experience both times 😍

[@micahelise2095]

Professor Firas is an extraordinary teacher, more importantly a humble human. We should aim as martial artists to learn from from his humility first, and skillset secondary. An exemplary Master!

[@radus9190]

Right when I thought I know how to choke...

[@rhidiandavies1991]

This is basically how I've started all my back attacks for ages but I appreciated the little details like becoming more diagonal by bringing the bottom leg across the waist. Should probably have mentioned that the benefit of falling to the under hook side is that you can transition into sankaku and/or juji gatame if you loose, or struggle to finish, the choke.

[@IDezzly]

They hugged for 8 minutes then he said he doesn't like people touching him lol. Great video tho :)

[@metalnat27]

😂🤣

[@dadthelad]

And then brought out the drilldo to celebrate :D

[@Exploremorefishing]

Any time Firas wants to teach I listen 🙌🏻

[@nrgstudios612]

6:30 Firas turns into DJ Khaled when he's getting choked

[@frankyang6948]

omg lol

[@BuhleBanksUnplugged]

Man these videos get me hyped to learn mma

[@badgejohnson5596]

Not the "Lat" (Lattissimus Dorsi) which is under the armpit but the "Trap" or Trapesius, the muscle across the top of the back. Good vid.

[@vlada]

I was looking to see if someone has noticed it before posting. 👍 Trap not lat.

[@lucagunetti7250]

I love Firas as well...such a good instructor, detailed and precise

[@ConservativeBiscuit]

This is one of the best vids yet

[@damvid21]

Firas is a combat philospher, big fan of his.

[@PapaBigDoinks]

I've never actually trained Jiu Jitsu or watched any kind of instructional video, but I feel like Firas just taught me 3 different techniques that most Jiu Jitsu practitioners don't even know.

[@colecalloway1735]

Firas is the man. Love seeing him on this channel.

[@Chazman2705]

Fantastic video, more detail than any jujitsu class I’ve actually payed for

[@paragon1782]

That's not good lol

[@agentsmith6570]

such a intelligent and calm guy, awesome coach!

[@giacdeg]

Oh man, what a blessing of a training partner. Great vids, quality instruction - thanks!

[@EnFyr]

Good for you Shane! You have really evolved since the first videos you posted :) I love seeing things coming together for you. Much love

[@niku10]

Wow great tips

[@ThatCasualZach]

Ran into Firas at the mall in Okc and took a pic with him and thanked him for what he does. He was super down to earth and friendly! Best in the game. wish he and TonyF were teamed up so we could see where that leads.

[@freshhbro]

Firas Zahabi is sick

[@siddharthtripathi499]

Same like this back attack, you uploaded a video few years back and that one was also lit 🔥

[@abe_is_live]

This is super interesting! In my much more limited experience people have always said to try and lean and fall to the choking arm side. I guess this is because you don't want to let them get their head on the mat and begin slipping out, but the way that Firas does it is kind of slip his leg and shift over to the side where his head is hugging which seems to do the same thing. I am going to try doing it this way!

[@0dious]

Coach Goat. Awesome episode.

[@boxersguy6799]

This is my first time seeing a grappling video and i can say that grappling is underrated....damn i enjoyed it🔥

[@alak5350]

I think I can speak for some people when I say that the snapping of the fingers really bring back the focus to us people who have trouble focusing on things such as this. I always dream away during my coach's way of explaining a technique but by Coach Zahabi simply snapping his fingers he brings his focus right back. Would love to train at his gym.

[@kaylsomogyi75]

Rolled with coach Firas and he doesnt just smash you because he can, he sets up the perfect amount of difficulty for your level.

[@saeednasim8704]

Firas's accent reminds me of vaas montenegro.

[@twistedgamer17]

Good comment

Nice to learn these details I didn't know before!

that intro 😂😂 “i think he is dead”

[@xeroenemyx1]

so happy to see this series. amazing content. keep them coming!!

[@thisguy-yv5so]

John Danaher Firas’s Master teaches these exact hand fighting techniques in his back attack DVD you can purchase on BJJ Fanatics. He has much more detail but great basic run down by Firas

[@tunesarms2586]

Great video guys. Tons of details most I've never seen. You 2 work well together. That sparring vid was cool too. Please keep it up for us all. Thanks 👍🏻🤼‍♂️😁

[@bananeneter999]

Wow, amazing free content. Thanks Firas & Shane!

[@Stylo4]

Very good video. Please guys do a part 2 where you cover how to get free of this specific choke!

Absorbing the knowledge from the goat coach

[@superboxing8805]

Fist behind the head love that detail so nasty it’s like the cross choke from roger mad details

[@sarojatevar774]

Very nice your teaching... plz give more techniques ... thanks for this ... love you... sir

[@nedthehead6853]

Damn that arm grab with the leg is shifty af. Letting them get the arm off the neck making them think they’re defending when they’re just doing what you want them to.🔥

extremely detailed loved it, learned a lot

[@vrajeshbhatt4208]

You can tell Shane felt the effect of the choke at 3:42

[@stefanwolf8558]

Yeah man. He probably was seeing stars at that point. It's crazy how your vision just goes black when you get caught by a deep choke.

[@WHAATTchannel]

thank you Firas!

Make a video with Firas on drills that beginners can do at home, alone, to get a basic understanding of Jiu jitsu. Great vid as always, Shane!

[@grapplerntr3280]

One of the best coaches ever in mma very intelligent and wasn't a bd fighter either

[@steelmember6326]

firas is the man

[@devindratoolsie2018]

free knowledge from one of the best coaches and people dislike this vid? all I gotta say is Rory the Red King and GSP go look it up. Thank you Shane

[@bikersoncall]

Invite Firas back to show us how to get out of this choke, not a modified or similar choke, but this exact hybrid, on the ground, then we will all be better off.

[@fabian13333]

Omg! Great tactics. Would love to train with him.

[@BecozPro]

Firas is a master and this is great entry into Danaher style back attacks but I'd really recommend Danaher's Enter the System Back Attacks instructional for a complete overview of this topic.
