Jiu-Jitsu standing rear choke defenses.

Different escape strategies against the standing rear choke attack. These Jiu-Jitsu techniques are based on leverage instead of strikes:
0:00 Intro.
0:34 The problem with the chin digging technique.
2:10 The problem with the slot machine technique.
3:45 Technique 1: Attacker leans forward.
4:10 Technique 2: Attacker stands straight in a neutral position.
4:42 Technique 3: Attacker pulls back.
4:56 Technique 4: Attacker takes leg out.
The use of leverage is more reliable than strikes or pressure points which the attacker will be able to take without letting go of the choke.
Mastering of the techniques showed requires constant practice and training under a certified instructor.

[@PrinceAzeriel]

After how my week started this video just made it a lot better. Several of my new students came into my dojo(before they were my students) and put up quite the ego because they trained with each other using KZbin videos before they decided to try to join my dojo. They tried to push around my White Belts until I came out of the office when I realized what happened. I remained calm and addressed them in a courteous manner(more to keep myself calm than anything else) asking them what their story was: what about martial arts interests you, why are you interested in this particular style, what do you plan on taking from what you'd learn here, why are you so confident in your ability when none of you have any form of formal training....you know the necessary questions(btw I apologize for this rant, there IS actually a point lol). After hearing them out, I thought about it and decided to see what they could really do. My style is a Japanese Jiu-Jitsu style, it's pretty combative in nature, which is why we use three different methods of sparring. One of those methods is minimal rules MMA(basically no dirty fighting techniques or anything that would cause immediate serious injury, everything else goes) I put these young men in that style of sparring and matched them up with some of my third and second Kyu students. I mean if they knew some black belt level stuff, then it should even out, right? Yeah….no....it was a massacre. These guys made all kinds of rookie mistakes, though every once in awhile they pulled off something that was actually really solid technique. One of them was a lot better than the rest of his friends, could've easily passed for actual training(I found out later that he was using an old outdated Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu black belt course instructional set of his uncle's for the majority of his training). I noticed he seemed to favor grappling, so I decided to freestyle roll with him to see how much he really knew and how he'd react under pressure, especially when dealing with techniques he was un familiar with and didn't know how to counter. Long story short he wasn't half bad, but he cracked under pressure really fast when I started using stuff that wasn't really common to Japanese or Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. My Judo/Sambo groundwork completely messed with him. We stopped rolling when it was clear he lost his drive. This guy, nineteen, fresh out of high school, and thinking he owns the world, was wrecked. Tears in his eyes, expression making it clear he felt humiliated. I almost felt bad for pushing him, but I had to assess his abilities and temperament. After all that I sat down with these guys, had all my students take a break and join us. I basically had all my students tell their own stories to these guys; like why they came to my dojo, what they had originally thought about my style before they experienced it versus their perspectives on it now, and what they took from their experiences in my classes. It was like a huge wake-up call for these young men. ANYWAY, finally to the purpose of this story, After a long talk, I decided to let these young men train in my dojo. It wasn't easy to get them to start from scratch and relearn everything from the beginning. KZbin martial arts has made an appearance in my dojo pretty much once or twice a week for the past four months. This video is an excellent example of how people shouldn't be relying so heavily on this site for their instruction. Many of the techniques they'd learn on this site, when applied in a real world situation, often either don't work or make your situation even worse. I'm always going rounds with my newbes on this subject. I told them if they could ever beat me in a full contact freestyle spar, then I would admit I was wrong and stop pestering them over where they picked up whatever new random technique they brought to the dojo that week. Kudoes to anyone and everyone who actually took the time to read all this. Just sharing a fairly recent experience and how it relates to this video. My apologies to anyone who fell asleep half way through lol.

This is true in a lot more fields than MA. Aside from my constant interest and on and off training in MA for the last 30yrs (8yrs solid training and the rest fitted in to the realities of working and raising kids), i'm also a chef. I find that a lot of kids think that YT will teach them enough or everything they need to know about cooking... professional cooking though, needs actual experience and cannot be learnt watching clips. In the same way, one may learn a lot about MA in YT, but combat requires proper training to be effective in.

[@PeterJames143]

Nice rant read the whole thing. I supplement my bjj schoolwith youtube videos but I evaluate if the instructors are shit or legit. I try the techniques and see what works. Sometimes I get gold stuff that way but from legit instructors. It can potentially be very dangerous to do dynamic body weight techniques live where you don't know the consequences. That is the main danger. But for sure you can learn a lot from legit video instruction. The other danger is people who can't distinguish legit from crap techniques. Another danger is that people will kill or injure other people by accident using legit techniques before they understand what will happen. Another problem is irresponsible people getting powerful techniques. Thanks for nice comment on this nice video. :)

is it not a option to hold the wrist of the arm thats under your chin and with both of your two hands and lift your legs off the ground to force the wrist to support your entire body weight ??? their arm will fucking drop and you can possibly move into straight away breaking their arm if you have momentum behind it ?

@@likewaterjkd this is quite possibly the dumbest thing I’ve seen on here. Scenarios: 1. They are strong enough to hold you so now you’re making it easier for them to choke you since your entire body is now being suspended by your neck. 2. They are prepared for some sort of dead weight trick and crouch down as you collapse and now your on your butt and being choked. 3. You actually succeed in breaking the hold but dropped your entire body weight onto your tailbone and are stunned just long enough for your attacker to now attack you while you’re just sitting on the ground. 4. You fall forward and now you’re on your stomach while still being choked, but now they are laying on top of you.

It's good that you tell the public about the real world facts. I took 4 years of Gracie System Ju-Jitsu and later went to a Shorin Ryu Karate school . The instructor was going to demonstrate the Rear Naked Choke on me but when he did it I pulled back so he was on his heels. He panicked and tapped out real fast because he was going unconcious. He knew I could beat him after that.

[@stgraves260]

Hard to explain. I was put in a rear necked choke at a bar once. He was a big guy. He picked me up off the ground. I extended my legs straightest on front of me as far as possible. Even at his size, roughly 100 pounds on me he still could not stay leaned back. I made him lean forward and I got down on 1 knee as we were coming down and tossed him over my right shoulder. I was then able to put him in a arm lock and put my knee in his throat. Yes I was shaking up. Practice all you can but it still doesn’t compare to a real life situation. When you train, train hard.

[@RhodesRhodes]

At 4:46, is he using the force of the leg sweep plus his hands pulling on the attacker's arm to pull himself out of the choke or is it the case that a person who is being made to fall to the floor will let go so that they can keep themselves upright??

[@stgraves260]

@@RhodesRhodes I think so. Don’t try and learn to many techniques to get out of a choke hold just 1 or 2 and then keep practicing. If you try and learn to many you won’t remember them all in a fight. If you only practice 1 or 2 then it will become second nature when you are put on the spot in a real fight. I would say 9 out of 10 fights people will all ways try and put someone in a chock hold, Specially in a bar fight. I typically try and stay out of the way and let the bouncer do there job, but I have been attacked by bouncers from behind I guess because they thought I was in the fight. I’m 5’11” 168 lbs. I’m not a very big guy but I have thrown 300 lb guys over my head. It’s all about technique. If possible learn from a woman instructor if you are a small guy. I feel they are the beat teachers for small men to learn from because those woman teachers are not as strong as men and perfected the technique. I learned from men and woman. I got started late in life with MMA. Was 16 -17 years old. I was 135 lbs. the women helped me with the tosses more than the men could because the men were stronger and their technique was not perfected as well as the women. That’s just my opinion. It worked for me though. Practice on striking key points. I’m pretty quick even at 50 years old now it’s because I have practice key targets over the years and it’s all muscle memory now. I think and feel like I’m moving slow but when I spar my opponent tell me I’m fast as shittt. Most the guys I spare with are in their 20-30. I enjoy the exercise. Keeps my mind sharp. Keeps me motivated, going.

These defenses take into consideration a person’s initial reaction to a choke. Very reasonable to use your initial reaction. Like he said, you only have 5-6 seconded before you lose consciousness. Unless you train to grab the crotch, it won’t be what you are going to do. You don’t rise to your expectations, but fall to your training.

[@jeremiahthomas9833]

5-6 seconds changes a lot in a fight or self defense which unfortunately mirror each other sometimes. Considering the speed of people and reaction times of other. A second or two can decide something like this. I agree. Train in it extensively. Know your body first and foremost. It will handle whatever comes if you train broad enough regularly. It becomes muscle memory. Not a thought but a natural reaction. No thinking or time is wasted, action vs opposite or equal reaction. Your muscles will remember this and react accordingly.

[@hartunstart]

Always wear a spike collar, the sharp ends outwards.

[@Gideonslc]

I understand the reason for the technique basics. In most street fight scenarios this is an attempt to submit from a novice. In that stand up RNC scenario my set up as the perpetrator is a knee up into the tail bone and the RNC is a "lift" of their body up onto that knee... breaking, or crushing the hyoid bone is as much a part of the goal as any "submission." BJJ, and similar arts with a competitive, not battlefield, mindset see a carotid artery (blood flow,) or trachea (air flow,) knock out finish. Defensively one must understand the physiological dangers of the RNC to fully appreciate the danger of the move and what must be protected. From a skilled attacker it's a fairly quick, open hand sentry kill... the back elbow strike works well when it's focus is to twisting it straight back into the armpit like you want it to connect with their heart- to break the smaller ribs in that area. Broken ribs make that arm unusable.

[@almaska82]

It's so funny when the attacker stands motionless like a closet and waits to be thrown.

Good video the key to success is to be aware and react before the choke is locked in. It is very difficult to escape it beyond that point.

[@1K18V21]

When possible, push or pull first in the opposite direction of the flip, which causes the choker to lean into the flip, helping you to flip him. In high school a friend who was taking judo spent 20 minutes teaching me a couple of throws. A year later a guy much bigger than me started a fight and I used one of those moves to put him down twice. This stuff definitely works on untrained attackers, and if perfectly executed, can work on trained attackers.

I won't.., it's scary.

He did it in front of three older males in the room and no one said anything, not even the one I felt closest too, I never want to be in that position again. It is something that is subconsciously constantly in the back of my mind and I don't trust man, til this day I don't know why he did it, but I believe he had a distaste or dislike of me.. I was kind of smart mouth and could be outspoken at this time, I was lost I had just got baptized and lost sight of who I was and what I wanted to become, so I did not always say or do the right things when pressure came.:) I liked him at first and I kind of wanted to date him, and he didn't take me seriously. He even left two disturbing message on my voicemail, that was vulgar, and sounded like he hated me, with sounds with a women in the background of them having sex..I don't know what was on his mind. I told my brother about him, but he is someone I hope to never encounter again or anyone like him. Anyway I'm sorry that happened to you, and I pray you continue to be blessed.

[@f_USAF-Lt.G]

Tucking the chin keeps you breathing by opening the airway - tensing the neck muscles Leaning forward uses "hip pivot" to 'turn' opponent over Backing up to leverage the opponent over you - still uses "hip pivot" to 'turn' opponent over The sweep (or "hook") will always come after taking control of the opponent's grapple - but the "leg hook grapple" is a tool used in taking controls (mostly before) of the opponent's grapple The "spin around" is to take controls of the opponent's grapple - with a grapple... That sets up for the "hip pivot" _ "hook" _ "spin around"

[@SiFuJasper]

As a Wing Chun practitioner and instructor, we are taught to use contact reflexes (chi sao) to get to the opponent’s outside (blindside). I was able to use Escape 3 in a tournament in 2006. I thought I heard the referee’s whistle, so I stopped engaging and actually turned to face my corner. It turned out to be a person in the audience, so the guy put me in a choke and leaned back. I immediately tucked my chin, pulled his arm down, and turned toward his shoulder just like his technique, except I ended up accidentally tearing his shoulder. I still had the mindset that the ref blew the whistle, so I acted a little out of anger. Whoops. I love how your instruction is not just on “technique” but on the “principles” behind the technique: the “why” and not just the “what”. I believe we can all incorporate good teaching from sound systems/instructors regardless of style. I regularly train with boxers, jiu jitsu and krav practitioners. I have a prison corrections officer in my school who also trains grappling (required for his job). Absorb material, train hard, experience random attacks (stress test), enhance what works, throw away the crap that doesn’t. No egos. Keep up the great instruction!

The first one is like “why are taking so much time to choke me..do it quick..ok let me help you “🤣😂

[@rjvanloon4769]

The first problem is being in a position where your opponent can grab you in a rear naked choke. So 1: try to avoid being in that position. Tucking the chin in will help only if you are fast enough to get it in between his arm and your neck. As soon as the arm slips under it's basically game over, so you do not have 4 seconds, more likely 2 max, so even if you do you you already need to be moving. The variation of ippon seoi nage (the shoulder throw) is extremely unlikely to work, I would definitely not rely on that. Your turning outwards might. I understand you kept the speed down in order to demonstrate the technique, but you should show it full speed with a serious attack as well. And your version of that outward turn and trip was...let's say friendly.

There should be laws against posting misinformation on self-defense techniques. It's directly analogous to teaching so eone incorrect driving procedures.

[@bobgraham1791]

It is a bit more difficult because there is no single body to determine what is correct self-defence. You would need the legislator to decide on what is good self-defence and then pass a law stating that only the techniques identified can be taught. You might end up learning Tai Chi...

[@MaxLohMusic]

The difference is in scale, as driving is something people do every day and has very high risk and huge fatality count, whereas assault and self-defense situations are extremely rare by comparison

[@MaxLohMusic]

​@@bobgraham1791 That's why evidence-based approaches are so important; instead of relying on an authority we look towards the science. Granted combat sports like MMA aren't perfect "experiments" to a real fight but it's the closest thing we have; generally if it were any other field of study people would agree to work with imperfect evidence instead of throwing it all in the garbage and relying on blind faith in untested techniques, yet for some reason that's exactly what happens constantly in some martial arts circles.

[@zarynt1089]

Both of them were fake. It was like a bad household product commercial where the housewife smiles likes a jack o lantern while gesturing at the product. There is no way her chin would hurt someone his size (or smaller) enough to make them release. All they have to do is squeeze harder.

Good to see some real Jiu-Jitsu guides out there. If a dude really knows how to choke, your chances of getting out of it alone are slim. A trained choker won't stay on his feet for long (I personally like to jump and scissor the chest of my opponent with my legs). Someone strong enough doesn't really have to rely on reaching your neck too, he will most likely take you out even if he caught your chin

[@SergioArroyoSailing]

Thanks for this lesson professor!

[@madnaz2685]

thank you sir sharing techniques

[@angelsjoker8190]

Grabbing the attacker's arm is not only the best defense, it's also the most instinctive, and instead of building upon this instinct, they try to untrain it and replace it with low success techniques. And good luck significantly hurting someone's feet when they are actually wearing shoes.

[@jessechoi571]

I think the stepping on toes technique is used by girls wearing high heels, but not for guys

[@nunyabiz7699]

Its not HORRIBLE in principle. The Stomping on the foot. Just really bad for the rear naked Choke. if it was a Bear hug or grab around the waist from behind it is worth a shot since it is right in line. And if your gonna do it you gotta REALLY do it. No step. you lift your leg up and stomp with ALL you got. A few times. And maybe try to head but them in the nose or face if you can with the back of your head. The Stomp does not have a Super high effective rate. Steel toes. Or fairly good boots or just some one really focused or hyped up on drugs could shrug it off. But its mostly about interrupting the attack. Not flat out stopping it. And its easy. Fast and worth trying. If you interrupt the attack. I.E. Get the grip to lossen. Or get them to lean forward a little or just get them to pause. You can procced with something else. Or just Buy time while you scream your head off for help. In a survival Situation you use what you got. And it is a Cliche because it CAN work. JUST not so great for rear naked choke.

[@gerardleroux5784]

The problem with focusing so much attention to grappling, is your mind adapts to counteracting locks with escapes, as opposed to causing maximum damage to soft tissue areas of the body. I'm a bodyguard for 12 years now and I've tried several actions and reactions in different real-world situations. Focusing on grappling or taking someone to the floor while the person is armed or there are multiple men or women working together for a malicious purpose or sadistic cause, is one of the most dangerous situations you could place yourself in. Yes, you will subdue the one person you're focused on counteracting, but the overall outcome will be devastating to you. Your environment and your given situation plays a massive role in what you should do versus what you were trained to do. Traditional martial arts has a strong foundation in my life but the street taught me what can be done and is nothing but marketed bullshit and i have the scars to prove it. Even as a cage fighter, i thought the octagon represented a place for no nonsense fighters to display real combat techniques and jiu jitsu certainly has it's place there but we forget that is still a controlled environment. On the street, in bars, moving through extremely dangerous regions and remote areas, focusing so much on choking, joint locks and ground work, will get you killed. You dont have to like what I'm saying, but it doesn't change the fact that it's the truth.

[@gerardleroux5784]

@@offdazaza2769 that's exactly what I've been saying Adrian. Focusing too much on developing your grappling skills will get you killed. Every type of fight we're in, requires a different set of skills and therefore you need to adapt to the given situation. Martial arts or any other systems of combat are only there for you to develop coordination and muscle memory to be better equipped at diffusing violent behaviour aimed at you. It does not guarantee a favourable outcome but through practice, you increase your chances of survival. To develop a skill set in one system of combat alone, is detrimental to your survival and you should rather focus on developing in an array of fields, including striking from boxing, power development in kicking from muay thai, etc. And then sparring everyday, with people of different shapes, sizes and strong points. Outside the cage, you need to get involved in advanced firearm training (tactical shooting), learn how to use your environment and clothing items to survive a knife fight (or panga-weapon attack like here in our modern jungle) by getting involved in Krav Maga or some military training. This whole thing of pursuing your black belt in one martial art or one system is outdated! You need to get involved in so much more to come out victorious, both inside and outside the ring.

You have a few seconds if you are an experienced fighter or if your attacker is inexperienced. If those conditions are reversed, a rear naked choke could be instantly debilitating.

Really liked the modest and humble way Sensei debunked those absurd and dangerous "self defense" techniques.👍 Those are good proven defenses found in almost all Judo, Jiu-Jitsu, Ju-Jitsu, BJJ schools.

[@zzz22214]

Good stuff. Glad you showed people those non effective techniques. Sadly many videos out there like that. People have to be very careful learning the wrong methods of self defence. You need years and years of practice before you master the art of self defence. Training your mind and body from inside out. Once you are capable of defending your self effectively. Then you you start showing people how to defend them selfs. Hope those people who did those 2 videos will see their poor and dangerous self harming techniques.

[@henrikg1388]

Pretty much what we learned in Judo in the early 90s.

[@henrikg1388]

And to add some constructive criticism, many BJJ:ers miss the whole point of of standing grappling, which is fundamental to judokas, and that is "breaking the balance". It is quite hard to execute an upper body throw without it. So it is not either a seoi nage (Escape 1) OR the o-soto-gari (Escape 3). It is both. You pull him backwards and forwards, and when he breaks his balance, you use the appropriate technique. I am not trashing BJJ here, just saying that you still have a lot to learn from Judo (and vice versa).

@Robert Leruyet No, 1990s. We had one competition group and one excercise group. It wasn't about what was your goal of training. Belts didn't matter, although most young brown and blackbelts was in the competition group. But I should admit that I pursued an amatuer career in Muay Thai at the same time. In fact, judo footsweeps and clinch tricks were very helpful. Judo, back in those days is not what ypu see in Olympic judo today. The Gracies would have a hard time with the best.
