The Best Guard vs Bigger Opponents ( w Lucas Lepri )

This video I have Lucas Lepri 6x World champion go over some of his key details to the sit up guard. The sit up guard in my opinion is the most efficient sweeping position in all of jiu jitsu. Lucas has used it for more than a decade. In addition the sit up guard works extremely well vs heavy opponents for sweeps as long as you know the small details. Lucas has more content on his series on.

This is probably one of the top five BJJ channels on KZbin. Great job Job, Lucas is a legend! 🔥🔥

[@matn7743]

Poor Daniel did not edit the shit out of this @17:41. Awesome video Jon and Lucas. Thank you.

[@abrahamlincoln8542]

Master Lepri is my personal pick for greatest Grappler of all time, it's always an honor to listen to him talk Jiu-Jitsu. Also, I used Sit-up guard to win my grappling match against Robert E. Lee, and thereby win the Civil War. Now, I'm off to the theater, thanks for the details guys.

[@jsl8461]

You were a formidable wrestler in your youth, so you really don't need to spend that much time playing guard. Hope you enjoy the show. I heard there's a surprise during the intermission break, it's to die for!

[@GalenWillettMusic]

[@familiabjj4147]

Lucas lepri mostro..oss

[@stutteringdisciple1919]

I always find guards that control one leg in any ways are genrally the most effective in control eg: (SLX, Sit up, Half, Koala)

[@JonThomasBJJ]

I especially like Lucas variation of sit up guard it’s so easy to distribute the weight of your opponent off of you and come up.

[@karthik_silkroads]

what up behind the name?

[@abdulmohaamad6104]

the Best technique video on KZbin

[@JonThomasBJJ]

A lot of great details in this one for sure

[@nicolasa6789]

Thanks again

[@noahzhou979]

Hey John, Can u make a video to show how to get the pants grip and other side Sleeve grip? Thanks

[@Tab-uj4mm]

This has a criminally low number of views. Hope your channel gets more attention. Easily one of the best channels for BJJ content.

[@dowonification]

100% pure gold thank u seeing this video for free

[@MrJumboHumbo]

hey Jon, do you know why Lucas favour's the lapel grip instead of passing the far sleeve to the other hand?

[@MizzoniDojo]

I think the idea behind the lapel grip is to keep his opponents center of gravity glued to his chest/shoulder at all times, which makes manipulating the position a lot easier if and when there needs to be adjustments, like in the 2nd scenario when he in unable to have the delariva hook in anymore. Having the lapel allows him to total control to rock the weight back up.. the other hand is always free to grip the sleeve as well. That is what I imagine anyways.. oss

[@aqeelqadree3674]

I need this knowledge

[@rivelinolopes823]

Jon Thomas eu gosto muito da suas posições que você mostra . Deus abençoe sua vida

[@justingracie8812]

Haha im going to have remember that one!

[@everettehickman6250]

Lol poor Daniel 🤣

[@JonThomasBJJ]

Oops 😅😂😂

[@dendy1993]

What if the person on the top do the backstep?. He can go to the reverse halfguard and smash the person which is on the bottom.

[@federicohan1458]

I wish I could Super Like this

[@slavicvolk]

14:40 knee cut defense- pull them on top of you and kick over

[@biggideal]

my issue is getting the grips to setup the delariva , the bigger opponents outgrip me with their own death grips

[@thomasthomsen4190]

Seems like Daniel didn't have to edit the shit out of this.

[@karwengloo361]

TAAAANGS!!!!

[@JonThomasBJJ]

🙌🙌

[@Cooperdeadly]

[@slick222]

Monster BJJ channel. Show me one with better content.

[@Burzurk1987]

I wish you would have put in a much larger opponent. The guy in blue is so small and skinny, I can’t see how this would work on a much larger person.

[@jrock2019]

You have to bite on one limb like a pit bull.
