Heel Hook Finishing Technique | With BJJ Black Belt Dean Lister

Professor Dean Lister first discusses how to safely train heel hooks, then shows the mechanics of finishing the submission from inside the guard, 50/50, and ashi garami.
Dean shares a full breakdown of leg attacks (including straight ankle locks, kneebars, toe holds, and more) in his instructional "Dean Lister's Leg Lock System" which you can watch in full here:

You inspired john danaher, so yeah.. You're the man who started this leg lock evolution

[@pulsarlights2825]

Dean basically did in ADCC 2003 what Lachlan Giles did in ADCC 2019....

Hey Dean. I really like how you explain everything in your Videos how everyone can understand it. Some other People's Videos go on and on for 20 minutes and I still don't get it. Thanks Sir!

[@sueetennant4038]

Catch and Release. Terrific!

[@kcwliew]

Your man there looks very nervous with Dean on his heel... don't blame him :)

[@tommylayne311]

Thank you dean for this video

[@ryanj2004]

Thanks Dean

Does he cover inverted heel hooks?

[@WardenOfTerra]

It's always best to instantly tap when you're caught in one of these. I've seen guy's ego's get the better of them and they've ended up not being able to walk properly ever again. There's a reason as to why people won't compete in BJJ tournaments if heel hooks are allowed.

What bones will break this tehcnic? The ankle or the knee?

[@GoldBJJ]

It will tear the knee ligaments.

[@the1shrubbery]

nowadays people like Craig jones say that a proper heelhook attacks both. depending on where u are more flexible it will break

[@pulsarlights2825]

Heel hooks in a gi!!? The IBJJF may try to ban this video....

[@mackgmoney1515]

Man !a heel hook feels like your knee is going to explode!

[@Thecelestial1]

That’s because it is!

[@gregjimenez9979]

The guy in the grey looks like a robot or like he was photoshopped into the video.
He’s just sitting there like a statue for like 2 minutes. Super weird.
