You guys who are giving a thumbs down should explain why you are doing that so the problem(s) can be addressed. Otherwise, that’s not cool if you are doing that just to be an ass, because the instruction is clearly superior to most instructionals on KZitem.

I sometimes thumbs down stuff just to let the algorithm know that it was something I'm not interested in, especially if it was autoplayed to me. It's nothing personal. A 98% positive feedback rate is overwhelmingly good and the 2% could easily be explained by non-jiu jitsu players who have no idea what they just watched and aren't interested in it.

This video reminds that I wanted to see your thoughts on guard pulling, i.e. the techniques you prefer. I have seen a lot of footage of yours where you slide into guard with a collar grip. I notice a lot of high level players doing that as well.

great tips! One other guard retention issue I have in spider guard is when they step back and pull my legs down, essentially forcing me to sit up (I guess it's the same way some people set up the toreando). I've also been struggling with the basic spider guard scissor/wheel sweep lately when my partner assumes a very strong posture and prevents me from rotating his shoulders at all (generally tall/strong people).
@JonThomasBJJ
6 жыл бұрын
diabolic42090 so the move I showed in this video curling your feet out wide should help a lot stopping them from forcing you to sit up. The scissor spider sweep I will cover in a different video, but if they posture up a lot omoplata or change to collar sleeve then omoplata would be good options.

Hey bro if they start to sit you up butt scoot or skip ... Always hv the passers upper body bent over whatever control of grips you use... We as humans arent very mobile on our feet with the torso bent at 45 to 90 degrees.

The most common break for that spider hook is walking over and placing your right knee on their calve/ankle and then popping it out. Are the spider hook retentions the same if they do that?
@JonThomasBJJ

wufufufu Should have put that in the video I forgot! It’s actually the same counter, the bending in knee movement defense will work just the same. It completely blocks that pass if done properly.

Shyam Tanna I prefer to play with the lasso shallow and low I rarely go through with the hook. You can I just don’t prefer it, feel like it harder to transition back or to other positions and easier to get suck with heavier opponents.

Hey John, Great channel. I am a smaller guy who has been attempting to use Spider guard as a way to help mitigate size from larger opponents. My question is how as a smaller guy (5ft 4 145lbs) implement spider guard on a larger opponent without getting crushed.(190+ lbs)? Thanks in advanced! great channel my dude!

Wow your details are amazing. I use spider gaurd every day. I've always kept my gaurd so wide and legs away from my body... always pushing then my training partners push my legs down... pretty much they destroy my spider gaurd... Literally I had this talk with a black belt from my academy and he said mike try the lasso and sleeve or lasso and collar... doing the same thing and expecting a different outcome is the definition of insanity.... your legs are so much closer to your body making it more difficult to pass your gaurd... just like inverting staying so tight that people can't pass your gaurd.... I see it now.... now I have to break bad habits and know when to push and when to stay tight. I almost gave up on spider gaurd.... I just needed to work smarter and harder. Thank you so much!

I've been trying to hit this triangle set up but finding they suck their elbow in before I can jump my hips up. How do you stop them closing this space as soon as you bring the lasso leg out?
@JonThomasBJJ
6 жыл бұрын
Xav R If they suck their elbow really tight you won’t be able to do the move. You will need to transition to another attack. I think I mentioned the overhead sweep in this video, but if not that’s a good one to try just put your right foot in their stomach and left de la riva hook in and try to take them over head. If they leave the elbow gap open you need to hip up fast and surprise them so they don’t close the elbow gap before you hit it.
