#7 of 13

That last Ezekiel setup Tho! That particular choke is accessible from A Lot of positions. I won my only Gold Medal with an Ezekiel from Mount, back in the good ole days of 2011.

I'm known as the kesa guy here at my gym, all thanks to this series.

That is awesome brother! Thank you for the feedback. Kesa is a killer position🤙

[@anthonyd7557]

Thank you! Great technique!

Love watching these, but as a 59 year old chubby white belt I spend all my time in survival mode. I usually roll with blue n purple belts and if I ever get in a top position…I’m not there long. I guess I just have to practice escapes n sweeps but that’s not as much fun as learning chokes. 😉 Love your videos !

[@StillRolling]

Give it time. We all start at the bottom and work our way up👊

[@gamesthatmatter9374]

ezekiel is the only choke if applied properly can submit even a purple belt

[@zleggitt1989]

@@gamesthatmatter9374 that is so false it literally made me cringe

Dark Souls to BJJ pipeline

@@junfour lmao can’t backstab me if I got back control 🤷‍♂️

[@junfour]

​@@AdamBarkerThe For real though, BJJ is like Dark Souls PvP. All I need to do now is figure out how to zweihänder parry in BJJ.

[@AdamBarkerThe]

@@junfour when in doubt, ezekiel choke my dude. It will make even the biggest giant tap and you don’t need to worry about overpowering them OSS

[@junfour]

@@AdamBarkerThe It appears my last comment got deleted. Did you see it before it went?

[@vampred29]

Thx !

[@bananapatch9118]

White belt here. As soon as I get into kesa getame, I get swept every time. Thoughts ?

[@StillRolling]

It is probably your weight distribution. You should be pressuring into their ribs but make sure to not lean back.

[@gorillag2044]

when you wrap your arm around his head or under hook. if head wrap it around his head and hold your leg and he wont be able to sweep you. if under hook its your leg distribution to far.

[@sixspadez7548]

If they're doing the L sweep (overhead and to the side) then make sure your leg is pointing straight out from their spine/head. If they're framing you up to where they can swing their legs over for a reversal you need to tough out the frame long enough to set up a C frame on their elbow, and your elbow to your knee and shove their arm over into that arm triangle position

[@MultiMeschi]

Chest pressure, elbow control (!) and feet placement forming a solid base should do it.
