Do you have "I hate shooting syndrome"? | Wrestling for BJJ

[@MrAntinexus]

A lot of comes from lack of understanding shooting I think. Many get disappointed that their telegraphed first shoot is failed, but i think we should expect its failure. Fake more, do more snaps distractions, know when to give up on legs and go for upper body, reshoot

[@justinAclark2075]

This is the first time I spent 23 minutes watching a video about a single technique, and I am not disappointed.

[@firouziarmindaniel]

exactly

[@cristo3668]

Love you putting the subtitles. As a no native english person, is perfect to make sure i dont lose content you explain. Thanks!

[@The_Honest__User]

I immediately clicked this video, as a tall man myself (6'5) is hard for me to shoot into shorter opponents, i hope this video helps me as always, this channel has very useful information 😁

[@barn_du]

Im 6’5 aswell. You got any tips or go to takedowns for us taller guys?

[@The_Honest__User]

@barn_du I've been trying to learn some judo throws and underhook game for the standing position, so I don't have to go for the legs directly because it's uncomfortable for me. Hope it helps 👍

[@WrestlingUniversity]

@@The_Honest__User underhooks are a great option for taller people as well as ankle picks: Underhook: kzbin.info/www/bejne/q4vXZZZorqp4isUsi=zt9VRpHNJ3iNZRGS Ankle Picks: kzbin.infopctWnICU7ao kzbin.infoCd7WbC4piAY

[@fabooshka]

love that you teach the same thing over and over again. fundamental techniques that're easy to pick up but hard to master. the snatch single is king and the more videos you do the more it emphasizes that.

[@kastle1972]

I wrestled in grade school to high school, Judo, Sambo & both Jits. However decades of time as an LEO, powerlifter & Strongman have damaged my hips & knees. As a combatives instructor now I'm glad I came across this video, thanks for posting guys 🤙🏻🤙🏻

[@SunnyalessandraSaladin]

Hey, im from malaysia and i love your videos, the little details, the explanations especially for me who doesn't wrestle much, i really appreciate this video. Hopefully you keep on making these videos. Its revolutionary ❤

[@crank6868]

Thanks Adam, great Video, looking forward for the cours.

[@WrestlingUniversity]

Appreciate it brother, looking forward to delivering!

[@AxaFin]

I've been having some relevations in my boxing lately and somehow those improvements has directly impacted my ability to get entries into takedowns. Your videos have helped me tons the past 2 years.

[@12345idiotsluggage]

Thanks!

[@PetrilloCinema]

Your training buddy is a good friend. Stood there for the whole outro😂 This video rocks I appreciate it✌️

Brother has patience of a saint. Eddie is actually the BJJ equivalent of me as a wrestling coach. Check out his channel: www.youtube.com/@EKMartialArts-io3fi/videos

@@WrestlingUniversity Good looks I will!

[@rElliot09]

Great video, thank you. I'm a 54 year old blue belt with a very bad back, knees are shot, so something like this single leg helps me tremendously.

[@tonymeazell7591]

Great, great coaching.

[@WrestlingUniversity]

Appreciate that brother

[@jakehansen9623]

I had I hate shooting syndrome for 5 years… these videos healed me!! Thank you wrestling university 🙏

[@blankbandits]

I have neck issues from bjj, so I tend not to do any move that even remotely has a possibility of a guillotine. Although I know about the single-leg entry with head in to the chest, this tutorial is probably the best one I've seen. Seems like I should be able to pull this off. Thx

[@seth1219]

4:05 "What a lot of people do is dive at the leg.. and when he sprawls I'm way out here and life sucks" I feel personally attacked right now! Great video my jiujitsu needs this so much

[@7Phoenix1]

Jiu-jitsu purple belt here, I have this syndrome, this video is so helpful for me, thank you a bunch!

[@zg1920]

Well done video with good examples and phrasing.

very good video to sharpen our takedowns !

[@InvisibleHotdog]

I don't hate shooting, but I am a taller guy, so I always appreciate stuff like this. Thanks.

[@japposaurusrex]

Talk about low risk high reward technique! Awesome stuff 🙂

[@jperception817]

Thank you your free content

[@Patrick-sheen]

Is there a way to spar this lightly, similar to striking: give and take sparring, or would you drill a lot and then move to full sparring? Maybe have one partner try to stand up and the other take him down? Just trying to understand the process, many thanks! Unfortunately we don’t have wrestling in our high schools in my country. Awesome video

[@WrestlingUniversity]

Start slow and work your speed up to live sparring. Do your best to work in 10% increments. Start at no resistence, then 10%, 20%, etc. But since your partner knows this is the move you're attempting, it will be very difficult to hit fully 100% live. You can try, but best to attempt on someone who doesn't know that's the move you're going for.

[@ertyherty6674]

Such a great video !!! Thank you so much

[@danieloliveira1636]

What a helpfull video, thanks from brazil !!

[@ronmka8931]

I stg shooting more that 4 times kills my energy, how tf does merab divalisvili shoot 50 takedowns in 1 fight

[@ReciPeatsOrg]

Construction effort

[@alekseiaminev4751]

Great hair as usual

[@giant3909]

I suffer from "I hate shooting for the leg" syndrome, especially because of the level change since im 6'7" and fight shorter opponents. This video gave me a lot of confidence on trying it from now on

[@johannesd.492]

how about a video on how to take down smaller people :D I'm a tall person, alsmost always larger and taller than anyone. Getting to the legs is even more difficult for me because they're further down. I hate shooting on smaller people aka all people I train with. There're tons of videos on how to take down larger opponents, but not smaller ones.

[@The_Honest__User]

@@johannesd.492 it's the same for me, when I try, almost 100% of the time it is uncomfortable to get that down, I'm also the tallest in my gym. I looked up everywhere but there isn't a single video I found to help tall people like us with takedowns 😅, let me know if you find some please.

[@WrestlingUniversity]

I left this in another comment, but will place here as well: underhooks are a great option for taller people as well as ankle picks: Underhook: kzbin.info/www/bejne/q4vXZZZorqp4isUsi=zt9VRpHNJ3iNZRGS Ankle Picks: kzbin.infopctWnICU7ao kzbin.infoCd7WbC4piAY Also, when it comes to shooting, I think this is a severly underutilized tactic which worked well for me my entire competitive career and I was very tall for my weightclass: kzbin.info/www/bejne/j3XFmpWriJKhrrssi=om7rlforjqOT9zeB

@ Thank 🙏 you

[@MattdoesJJ]

Earned a subscribe. Great content

[@FULTS]

As a very new white belt, really enjoyed the video, definitely have (or had, after watching this) "I had shooting syndrome" as I managed to get cauli in my first month or two of BJJ from whacking my ear into people. One thing I'm not 100% sure I understand is why we would switch the grip once we have the leg raised. Is it to free up the outside arm to pull your opponent?

[@J-J-Jude]

Awesome video. Poor shots and getting guillotined are the curse of bjj. I’m tall and skinny and don’t like trying to drop low to get in on shorter guys. Will be putting this all into practice this week!

[@Verloren]

Another thing I've noticed is that jiujitsu guys take the front step forward, but their rear leg stays behind. Initial forward momentum is there, but moving that back leg forward means the center of gravity is further forward and through the back of the opponent.

[@Ric_1985]

Great video thank you

[@askingwhy-1]

Thank you so much brother

[@ahamilton1305]

This is great stuff

[@justinAclark2075]

I sort of accidentally taught myself not to use shooting takedowns, because since it was what people used on me from very young, I had already trained several effective counters for them, thus ruining the mental image of how effective they can be in general. Gonna start using the single snatch

[@talkingfights]

great vid man

[@victorhenriquecp]

great content!

[@luke1978]

This is great. I like shooting in, I’m just not very good at it!

I'm the tallest guy in my gym. Any advice on how to make the single leg work on a (much) shorter opponent?

[@omoplatallama1800]

Excellent

[@MCCherdccv]

Will you be covering anything about S-grips or extended singles?

[@WrestlingUniversity]

Yes on both!

[@MCCherdccv]

Thank you 💪

[@AbuMusaAlBurtughaalii]

maybe in the UK its different, but at competitions and also in my traning gym BJJ people often start a match with their posture low and sort of closer to a squat rather then upright. Could be just me but ive yet to encourage a BJJ guy who isnt scared of a single or double leg. for me having a low postuire against me just makes the match drag on because i legit just dont know where to go from there, they lower their centre of gravity and then just constantly defend and wait for a mistake,

[@chrisa8044]

I have very explosive shadow wrestling but have this fear of failing when going live.

[@gcorc]

As an older, smaller, 9-5 working grappler... I approve this message

[@turboblitz6958]

Your hair is good bro don't stress

[@12345idiotsluggage]

This all day. Every day. Spot on. Shooting (esp DL) is risky, high energy, and gen not worth your time. If you are Jordan Boroughs, yeah shoot DL all day. Mere mortals just need an efficient and effective strategy for TD. I hate Ben A. But dude knows how to TD with efficiency/effectiveness.

[@Nearmau]

Sensei, I have been training this in my latest jiu-jitsu sparrings... last time my opponent's back was pinned against the wall while I was trying to lift his leg up and I couldn't do it, and I got mentally stuck there. How do we proceed in that situation? (He was the double of my weight, by the way)

[@killercour]

This was excellent. Im terrified of shooting atm because i constantly get guilotined into oblivion.

[@吉尾公志]

Does wrestling shot ”ducking move？

[@terrorbilly8177]

I've been incredibly scared of doing takedowns because i've hurt my neck going for a shot because me and a dude had a head to head collision.

[@victoryinthescriptures4440]

But what if you get punched in the face with the your face wide open like that?

[@flobro5000]

If you never wrestled you suck at takedowns.

[@globeonthethread866]

What about Judo? We have an Olympic competitor sometimes train at our dojo, and he DEFIENTLY does not suck at takedowns.

[@flobro5000]

You don’t have to like my opinion. How many current UFC champions have a judo background? How many have a wrestling background? Wrestling is king. Especially when we are talking takedowns. Judo is not even competitive in America.
