Yuri Simoes also uses the bodylock a ton in no-gi. It's so simple but very effective.

[@RaxManlar]

Love ya, Lachy!

[@nicocontreras5366]

Great details, I was taught grabbing palm to palm and is harder against big guys. Thanks for sharing.

[@antufcti]

That outro gets a little to close 😂😂

[@hecorser1302]

Scared me

[@mezzi9736]

Nah there's nothing wrong with it

[@franciscocleiltonsoares3633]

Muito obrigado! 👍

[@mihaieleste]

Tried this 5 times today. Got swept on my back 5 times. 🤷‍♂️ Will try again next time

[@AnnoyingBiker]

Check out gordon ryans body lock passing. Lachlan forgets or just didnt mention that you need your opponents heels as close as possible to their glutes ( their ass) that kills the sweep. Once their heels are pressed against their glutes they literally can not elevate you.

[@mihaieleste]

@@AnnoyingBiker thanks man!

[@jeonsago]

@@AnnoyingBiker I was literally just taught that by my PT. Then I came here and saw this vid and was confused. Thanks for clearing it up!

[@cherokeeoutlaw2.011]

This is the essence of Jiu Jitsu

[@trixualz219]

i think this is from his instructional dvd right ?

[@streetwiseguitar5113]

How does this work with a Gi? Can you get loop choked?

[@australianbleach8594]

From Gi because of the loop choke it’s a lot safer to go for the one over one under pass as your head would be on the right side of their body instead of exposed. I’m not sure maybe Lachlan has other ideas but that’s just what I do

[@1998rks]

What’s the difference between this and the smash pass

[@Hangar1318]

White belt here. Just curious, at 4:46 your hips are so high. Is there a danger of him sweeping you to his left?

[@bambam9961]

No

[@thinkoflovelight]

Whats keeping the flexible guy from doing an omoplata/rubber guard?

[@jamesrussell1599]

a a his hips are pinned

[@whateveritwasitis]

Is this no Gi only? Isn't there a loop choke threat in Gi? I really have no clue just asking

[@judowithkeishin]

No it works in gi as well

[@Pinpadprompts]

Gi chokes don't count

[@joealias2594]

Wouldn't you get butterfly swept all the time going for this?

[@willmcmillan1566]

No. Shift your weight to the side you want to pass, like he shows at 2:50. They cannot sweep you into your post.

[@thos1618]

You almost never see it happen. When you see Butterfly Hook Sweeps, the Bottom Player usually raises their back off the mat, then brings it back down with the Top Player to generate power. In the Body-Lock Pass, the Bottom Player's lower back is so stuck to the mat they can't get anything going.

[@jacktaylor9913]

My opponent pushing on my head when attempting this pass kills it for me. Any quick tips to counter this? (I will buy the instructional when i have more funds available)

[@anthonyjimenez6994]

Jack Taylor I would maybe try to rhino with your head a bit more the create that smashing pressure before they can really stiff arm your head down ...hope that helps a little . I’m a little stuck on the tripod part to pass the half guard it seems like a good oopa with toss you right off. Going to try this out today. Lol

[@Zhcwu]

That does kill any forward movement of your upper torso but I usually resort to gordan Ryan's leg pummeling techniques to get past their gaurd and try to reposition at their hips before addressing the stiff arm on head.

[@Michael-xb5zq]

Did you ever find a solution to them pushing on your head?

[@robertjohansson5814]

What would you do to solve the half butterfly?

[@Djent7779]

Quarter guard

[@tedoliveira3019]

OSS. 🇧🇷🇦🇺🇺🇸🥋

[@Felix-nk1hq]

4:12

[@JEDIAL9]

Yeah, so, I just jump right over all of that. *If you smash you hips to one side of the leg and mat, you can slide your way to the pass. **_It's easy peezy cover girl!_*
