Blue belt here, and this is the explanation I needed!
Thanks so much 🙏🏽
Brown belt here. My game never really clicked until I started learning concepts instead of trying to memorize and drill individual techniques. Learning concepts is the easiest way to fill in gaps and have a more well-rounded game, and Jordan's channel/program is by far the best at explaining concepts and making them easy to understand.
I first conceptualized wedges bjj mentality, but it’s nice to have it in this format with accompanying footage for sure
Mate, before I started watching your videos, I felt like I was making very slow progress. Your fundamental videos which teach concepts are flipping bang on. Definitely learn better watching them videos and it shows in my rolls as I have just jumped from 3 stripe white belt to Blue belt. I was more surprised than anyone. Fantastic. Concepts are so much more easier to learn then individual movement/techniques Thank you so much professor 🫡
I get the concept but I dont necessarily understand how to apply it in different situations. Would you be willing to release a follow up video showing examples of how and when to apply wedges in different positions?
Prob some of the best advice and lessons given on this channel!! It has helped a lot of my overall progress! Even though i come from a judo background, this nitty gritty details help so much! Keep up the good work Jordon!!
Another crisp and clear concept we can use in any position - thanks once again for contributing to demystify BJJ for us Jordan!
That's always my goal! Thank you 🙏👊
Another great video. After watching this lesson, I am slowly starting to see how the concepts you teach all tie in together! Like frames, angles, and inside position. Great content! Thank you.
Informative as always. Thank you for putting this content out there! I learn so much from your videos and podcasts.
Love these concept videos. Thanks for the content!
I'm a conceptual learner. I love this approach to learning. Awesome analogy spliced throughout the video to drive the point home. Excellent presentation and examples to see the concept in action. As usual top tier content. God bless and 👊🏽Oss!
Nobody in the game has analogies like you. Love it! Can't wait for the Kimura course.
watched this video before class today and it made my guard passing and retention so much better. Thanks allot!
quality....thanks for taking time to share these concepts.👊👊👊
Awesome video as always! Thanks for posting this for free on YT
Your calmness allows for comprehension, thank you.
Very helpful video for this concept. Thank you 😊
If you could do more videos like this for concepts such as frames and levers that would be great!
That was fast, heard you on a podcast the other day talking about this and you uploaded it quick!
Thank you so much, Jordan!
I am from Brazil and I love your videos, learn the concepts is the key.
Thank you Jordan
OSS
PLEASE do a video showing the defense version of this concept 🙏 I’m willing to pay for it lol
Thanks Jordan. Of all the RUclips bjj stuff I’ve watched, you explain the theory and the why most clearly. Keep it coming
Thank you 🙏🙂
Amazing. Thank you Sensei.
thank you- i finally understand the concept now
👊 insane video. Can't wait to apply this idea in my training.
Love this man. Thank you.
Gold!!!! Thank you!!
Great video, Jordan! 💪
There aren’t enough videos like this on YT
Great video!! As a Bjj purple belt, I can confirm that this concept makes a huge difference when understood. I use this concept + my frames to control opponents from top more often than not… especially as a smaller guy too. I can’t rely on pure pressure cause I’m not THAT strong and I’m only 140lbs… so frames from the top, as you put it- using wedges, is essential for maintaining control. It’s also extremely valuable for escaping too. All the brown belts and black belts above me do the same shit to me that I do to blue and white belts, just better and more refined. It’s amazing how jiu jitsu IMO* boils down to be more about concepts + positioning as opposed to sequential techniques. Like in a live roll or competitive match… you’re gonna find yourself in scrambles and in positions you didn’t expect to be in, so it’s helpful to understand concepts of BJJ in a more dynamic context, rather than static or linear I suppose. Like instead of a + b = c… think more in terms of probability; example- If I’m in your typical top side control, and they begin to frame and shrimp out, I have X amount of options, which can be summarized into a few categories. I can try to maintain side control (for me this is the least likely thing I’ll do because a) I’m a smaller guy and b) it’s not my style) - I can transition to another top position using windshield wiper motions with my knees and shins, constantly focusing on my wedges & frames (usually frame on the throat with a forearm too). This one I do most often, I usually just transition from position to position (depending on what they are doing) until I can systematically open up an exposed limb or part of their body where I can attack a submission, ideally without sacrificing too much control. Another thing, I could always abandon upper body control completely and enter a leg entanglement… which I’m not great at tbh 😂😭 but hey jiu jitsu is all about self improvement, right?
I’m a purple belt too but I ain’t reading all that
2 weeks into my journey, this is super helpful! This is a great breakdown to help a beginner
Glad it was helpful!
Another great video!
During our latest conversation, wedges was the thing that stuck the most for leveling up my jiu-jitsu in 2024! Another banger video Jordan!
Outstanding work good Sir 👍
Love the metaphor of opening and closing a door.
"Super Thanks!"
Love your guidance profé🇨🇦🇺🇸
Big concepts thanks!
Great content! Thank you Jordan
Glad you think so 👊
Capture your progress as you go!
Exactly 🙌
Incredible🙌
Wow I've never even thought of jiujitsu in this way, crazy it felt like this concept has already leveled up my game
😮
Any concepts on being pinned in north south? Or taking down bigger opponents in no-gi? I just binged your channel! Such great content
AMAZING video
Thanks Jordan
cool stuff!
👊 Yessir!
RUclips community would love to see you do a ADCC trail Jordan. We all big fans. Win or Lose we would love to see you go after it
I understand this
Great video
Glad you enjoyed it! 🙂
Submissions are the trophies you get for winning battles of inside-space.
Great stuff as always. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. Thanks for not bashing GenZ in this video. 🤣👊 🥋
what is the difference between a wedge and a frame?
Wait, when do I use the wedged fries in Jiu Jitsu?
Throw the wedges at your opponent to distract them
You dip them in your staph infection after rolling with Reginald.
Nice
Show more wedges
NOICE 🤯
Oss!
🔥🔥🔥
This is genius
👊
🤜🏼🤛🏼
At first I thought it said wedgies. That would have been epic.
Haha next video maybe?!
👊🏼🤙🏼
👊🏽
🤜🏼
🤟
🤜🤛
Potato wedges are delicious
Yoooooo, Jordan, bro! I’m in love. 😭🍑🔥
Haha ❤️❤️❤️
at first I read "wedgies" and was like, whaat? please don't let this be a thing 😄
classic danaher
You did not just put potato wedges 😂💀
The art hasn't changed that much in actuality. The INTEGRITY of instructor grading has changed. Its takes the average practitioner around 550 mat hrs to achieve a purple belt. However, many instructors keep practitioners with 900(+) mats hours in white and blue belts. The former trains 2.5 sessions/wk while the latter trains 7+ sessions/week. Shogun Rua achieved black belt in 4 yrs. Why? Because his instructor was HONEST about what was in front him. This is what changed. Today he'd be a blue belt, and this has now become culturized(accepted as norm). Belts matter if you make them matter.
Thanks Jordan. Gonna surprise a friend with a wedgie today.
Comment
Now I will be more of a door opener from now on
still not clear for me but still helpful
How come? Thought this was as clear an explanation of this concept as I've come across anywhere.
Just watch the video over and over again until you understand. Watch it with somebody and ask them questions about it. Go try it; little by little, flatten your opponent and don’t let your opponent flatten you.
Its mainly about blocking the frames. Think of the 4 limbs as doors, and your limbs as wedges. If you can get inside their limbs/doors with your limbs/wedges you take inside position and prevent them from either defending (bottom position) or advancing (top position). Also the further your limbs are from your core the less power you have in those limbs, a closed door is more secure than a open door. This is something that is lost on a lot of people, position before submission.
I understand how you feel. When I watch videos like this, it makes perfect sense, but when I get on the mat, it’s like I can’t remember any of it. Very frustrating.
Just keep training, Jordan has been training for a long time, and probably has a lot more time on the mat than just years it’s the hours spent on the mat that will get you there, keep posting these vids Jordan, Mahalo oss!!! 🤙🏽🖐🏽👊🏽
Genuinely this is how I thought before discovering BJJ good to know there was credibility to my delusions 😅
First
moral of the story?.. giv'em a wedgy
