Does anyone know why JT collapses the high knee shield into low shield before lifting the bottom leg and inserting his elbow? Gordon teaches a similar technique, but only off of low knee shield iirc.

I think mainly the reason is that using chest pressure you can staple their hips and move them as a unit when you square up to win the elbow block. Reducing it to low knee shield also helps in sprawling over it if they try to fight the square up.
