I was just thinking about this last night. This is the best teaching on a proper stand-up, even better than Rener and Riron Gracie's, which only covered the basics.
Very nice 👍🏼 instructional. I use that knee shield a lot, very effective. I know it’s incorrect, but I tend to slide both feet back simultaneously for the technical standup; probably a habit from soccer ⚽️.
Stephan that was a good concept but I feel it's not good. If you already established that you could push off with both your legs away from the attacker. Why would you get right back up and reposition yourself in front of him to place your hand on his trap and use forearm as lever. You're still gonna get punched in the face. It was good that you pushed away with your legs to create distance. Use that to get up and combat ready.
As Elliott mentioned in the video this is to learn the body mechanics of the standup. That has to be perfect first, and then you learn the more combative application afterwards. Also simply kicking your opponent away and trying to then quickly stand up often doesn’t work if he’s putting pressure on you - your standup technique needs to be able to handle his body weight driving forwards against you!
Run away from a fight? And miss a chance to test all that training??? BJJ was based on proving you are the best around and that no one was ever gonna keep you down.
Fight ‘til the end Cause your life will depend On the strength that you have inside you Ah you gotta be proud Starin’ out in the cloud When the odds in the game defy you Try your best to win them all And one day time will tell When you’re the one that’s standing there You’ll reach the final bell!
Quite possibly the dumbest RUclips comment I’ve ever read. Have fun getting your skull kicked in by your opponent’s buddies while you “test your training”
HI Stephan, great video. Strangely this is exactly what we drilled in class today.

Richard Fishbein If there is still some distance to your opponent and you're reaching far back, then I think that should be fine, too
Buddy just let the hair go
Hey Stephan could you make a video on your training schedule.
Eg: list of exercises, drills etc...
I want to make a schedule of my own.
Please help
Circular leg a good point (demo-ed by Stephan leaning in on shoulder)
never though I would see a video where Stephan has the better haircut
Reverse hair transplant? Where are you moving it to?

🪒🎱 Its time brother!
I'd buy this DVD but that dude's Friar Tuck haircut is too distracting
See! This is what happens when you spin on your head all day.
Hair club for men... Anyone?

You got to know when to hold em, know when to fold em, know when to walk away, know when to run...
Fight ‘til the end
Cause your life will depend
On the strength that you have inside you
Ah you gotta be proud
Starin’ out in the cloud
When the odds in the game defy you
Try your best to win them all
And one day time will tell
When you’re the one that’s standing there
You’ll reach the final bell!
Stephan Kesting perfecto 👌
