Great videos as always, guys. I am a judo coach and beginner jiu jitsuka. My go-to pin is the kesa gatame (headlock version), but in jiu jitsu, I have been playing with the kurzure version, but it took me a while to get used to the idea of allowing that arm to play around so close to my head. You are right about higher level BJJ players finding a way to your back, however. I appreciate your distinction, however, regarding the purpose of the kuzure kesa gatame (BJJ style), and its judo cousin. Great power in that pin -- either version! Now I try to get the Americana off the kesa gatame off of osoto gari throw. If I miss it, I like to slip into kata gatame (arm triangle pin), but you are right, that you have to be able to swing into all those base pins to keep with the rolling and shrimping. Great stuff, guys!
In class we were talking about the merits of keeping your head by their head from scarf to reduce framing and them pushing you over and taking side control themselves.
I have such trouble with people easily recovering guard when I’m in side control, I’ll have to remember to keep either my hip or arm glued to their hip tomorrow, thanks Chewie
Kevin Pope but but Bernardo says it’s not body weight that keeps my opponent down, it’s using your body as a series of wedges to keep my opponent from moving
I love these positions. I just started BJJ less then I month ago. I can somewhat manage to get myself in side control but when I do, I always have a hard time getting a submission from top or side control. When I’m bottom in guard though, I can get arm bars and rubber guard, but when I’m on top I always have a hard time remembering submission and blank all the time. Right now my gym is doing pods and we’re only able to work with one person and we started BJJ at the same time. So there’s times where we at a stalemate and nothing happens. What do you recommend we do? Edit: just found your video on working on techniques without drilling- 4 effective ways to roll to boost your BJJ techniques without drilling. Leaving this comment here for others to see.
That reverse side control has a nice sub chain if u back step and isolate the close arm you can straight arm lock wrist lock or stuff the arm in ur hip and u can roll either way for omaplata
i been trying to an escape video on the first one (head and hip). im smaller than most of my teammates and when they get in that position i just have no way out
Hey Chewy, I've been training for 3 months. I'm a hefty gal and not very fast. I'm having issues when I roll. I get to a certain point and can't remember what to do next. It's like my mind goes blank. I'm not sure which technique to use, and when to use it. My coach drills us on learned techniques every couple of weeks, even side control and kaysa, so I know what has been taught so far, I just can't put the knowledge into action. Any tips?
I have the same issue. I’m going to try just focusing on one at a time, so I can often get to side control, so I’ll try to learn and drill some submissions from there
Looking to start Bjj with a judo background, do you recomend to see it as a whole new sport/style? or can i use my judo background for a little bit of a basic start?
depending on the instructor many of the takedowns will be Judo with Wrestling others will be more Wrestling based ... anyway how much Newaza did you do, and how many ground submissions? and how is Side Control, North South Control and Mount from the Top? Guard from the Bottom and what submissions and sweeps do you have from the bottom? Submission Defense? .... if you have all that in Newaza the game should translate pretty well and the Belt promotions should be faster than the average person who never trained .... If the Judo club focused say 70% or more on stand up and not Newaza then it may not really translate
I started BJJ for self defense. When I hear about a techniques application to a game or usefulness in a competition I'm unsure how to decipher the information. Is it up to me as the learner to evaluate a techniques application in a self defense situation? There are some BJJ techniques that are good in competition but not in a fight; but how do I know, other than just my own common sense?
Kimura/ Ude Gurama (and "Americana") is Great for Self Defense, lean it standing and it has applications for Knife defense or just general control ....
Pick the non good looking girl at the gym to roll with? Totally kidding! I would try to introduce your wife to everyone at the gym (mainly the regulars) to make her feel more comfortable. She may not understand its just rolling and may thing there is something more to it. Would she like to try jiu jitsu? Maybe have her try a class so that she can see its nothing sexual.
@@112887db Luckily I have never really been attratced to a female I rolled with .... it was only once at a open Mat that there was a female that I was like WOW , my thought was I cant roll with her ... other than that it just another opponent and practitioner of the art
maybe im an idiot but I find side control to be the biggest waste of time. It has no place being covered as much and honestly if you were to have a match like this you should get in trouble for being boring as fuck and just holding someone still. Because in a real fight you dont just sit on a dude and hold him. he hits you while you try and control or submit him. Yeah I know people get tired after doing this shit for 10 minutes straight but no one fucking does that in real life.
I don’t understand the shoulder of justice if it’s on their face it’s not going to stop them from turning...if it’s properly placed they are completely disabled....shoulder of justice = garbage
Chewie's instructional videos are so informative and Adam cracks me up. What a great duo!
Judo terminology was correct! good clarification !
Kesa gatame
Kuzure kesa gatame
queso ketamay
Cheese Ketchup
I have had quite a few instructors over the last 3 years. I am really impressed by Chewjitsu. This is some good explaining while showing it off.

Always keeping a contact on the hip is perfect thank you.

Master Splinter does it again!!!! 😎 This is literally my top side control game in a nutshell and you gave me 3 new submission ideas/setups.... 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Chewy producing gem after gem as normal. Such a nice guy, great coach too.
Loving the detailed breakdowns!
Thanks!
Great video. Nothing flashy, but fundamentals. I love it.

@Chewjitsu- “what you focus on will grow”
#IgnoreThehaters
We love you and Adam! Thank you so much for your time and energy that y’all put in. 🙏
White belt here, these are really coming in handy for drilling on my off days! Thanks!
Very useful helped a lot last night, thanks Chew
Great video, I love the last position for a kimura set up! Very smart! I you loose the arm you still have the mount, just great!!
Beautiful. Many thanks
You have no idea how you’ve helped my game 💯🤙🏿
impressive explanation.
Thanks for sharing, man! Very helpful.
the iconic jazz hands from mr Wilson :)
Applying techniques to your own game is a key concept that is often overlooked. Great video 👌
great class, thank you
That reverse side control has a nice sub chain if u back step and isolate the close arm you can straight arm lock wrist lock or stuff the arm in ur hip and u can roll either way for omaplata
@5:26 I will be using that. Thank you!
I'm definitely gonna be drilling these! Ty!
Thanks!
man i wish you were close to knoxville!! i could use some of your training!
There are some good gyms in Knoxville I believe.
Adam has the best jazz hands
Hahhha his reaction at 1:19 when you said "grab the butt".
Hi Adam!!
I just learned I can never train jujitsu because of an injury on the mats. I'm going to miss this channel.
Oh no what happened? Why cant you return?
@@piggybank519 Metal plate and 10 bolts after a bad arm break. The doc said that it would be too risky now to train any contact sport.
Good stuff..
how does hand & hip side mount translate in no-gi? it feels like the person could just hip escape/shrimp and reguard
i been trying to an escape video on the first one (head and hip). im smaller than most of my teammates and when they get in that position i just have no way out
The shoulder of justice😂😂😂
does adam hate doing these videos or is he just a master of deadpan

I’m at a gym where the guys are predominately bigger than me and I have trouble passing their guard, any tips? Thanks
Relax, focus on technique
Imagine that person having hair on his but and you grabbing that leads to waxing 😂

They do cross over, so you won't head in there blind

Up to you to figure it out. I always think "can I get hit from here"? "Can I submit my opponent from here"?
Gracie combatives is all about this exact thing.

Who is that guy with the black gi? He looks like a Samurai warrior from 1700
Love the guy that doesn't talk 👐 lol
Adams face @1:17
Is that Tom segura?
Captain America, is that you?
We call it punching the hip
Here's a question:
My wife doesn't like me rolling with other women. What should I do? How should I handle it?
