white belt, tried this multiple times 100 percent successful rate. feel amazed when you haven't even practiced it and only go by fractions of memories. big thank you coach Brian! Love the way you teach!!

Starting to think you show the best techniques out of any BJJ / Wrestling channel

Wish I was able to train under coach Brian irl, I like his style of grappling.

I've been taught the major principles of this concept but you always give us small details that make it so much more effective. The way I learn this is so much more helpful for me, I need the particular details.

Coach Brian, your videos are amazing and it makes me happy to live in a world where youtube exists so I can absorb some of this knowledge. Thank you!!!

Very nice yes very good puch away to the side you oppponent while he cant punch you. You are very good teacher thankyou

Best details on the most over looked closed guard sweep or back take. Thanks for posting!

Dude I realize you're a great wrestling coach, but your guard stuff is amazing. Please do more!

This is the number one grappling video on youtube to the point that I couldn't even name who is number 2. Your videos are so educational, I almost feel like I have practiced them on the mats a few times after having watched you. Bravo sir!

Two on one is king. Thanks for this.

Can’t wait to try this. I’ve been working on my ghost escape using your video and have hit it a bunch of times on bigger stronger guys, thank you

Wow ...every now and then I find a game changer....this is it.

Don't know how I haven't seen this channel before. What an incredible amount of detail in the moves!

Without a doubt this channel is the online resource that has given me the most techniques that I have actually hit in training. Keep up the good work Brian!

Most underrated bjj channel dude. Like others have said, I think I have learned the most effective techniques here, more than anywhere else. I love working on these step by step and adding them in. The best part is most people don't expect moves like these. They look at you like what the hell are you doing lol. Thanks so much for your wisdom man.

binge watching your videos

Thank you, Coach!!! 👍👍👍A blast from the past!

great integration of wrestling and BJJ. Your details are precise and effective. Great channel!

Best channel. Hands down.

awesome lesson . i always love the instruction !

You rock coach Brian! I can tell you’re upping the quality and details of your post, and I’m looking forward to upping my contribution because your vids got real value. Grappling is so much fun and you project pure joy! Great work and thank you!

I really like this grip for control and attacks. I refer to it as reverse kimura grip. It is excellent for Baratoplata as you already have shown in previous videos. That armdrag is so simple from there, I love it.

Excellent fine points. Thank you.

One of my favorites, thanks for the details. There's also a double-attack with a flower-sweep to mount, depending on their reaction. Works great in gi too. (Maybe even better, because you can get a strong sleeve or pistol grip instead of just a wrist.)

100% the best grappling channel!!!

Oh my lord, slick as a buttered water slide

Learnin heaps bro keepem coming.

Another great video.

Nice, man. Will surely try and incorporate this in my next roll.

This is so good! Thanks for all the great content you share. Did you ever do the follow up video on if they drive the elbow to the floor?

Wow, awesome!!!!!

Amazing!

youre killing it coach

Thanks coach

Love it! 🤙

thanks coach this help a lot

So good

Thank you!

Really helpful

Very sweet. You guys are blessed who get to join his gym. I am jealous. :).

Hey coach, thanks! I usually put my foot on his hip and block him from retreating his arm whith my knee while doing the 2on1 arm drag.

Nice video thank you

Freaking love this channel!!

Very good

No joke, this works, i use to do this but not from viewing the videos

amazing thank you

That arm trap seals the deal

Excelente!!!

Ok I got it now thanks u dude u awesome

muy buen video mexico

It does make sense I like it

I hated closed guard until this, now I find I'm a lot stickier and I'm able to pull their arm to the side a lot of the time. I still usually don't manage to get around to the back though haha

Coach, watch Rickson again. He keeps his posture without putting his hands on his opponent. As it was explained to me years ago, his hands hover barely over his opponent. Only when they rise up do they run into his hands to block. He keeps his hands free to open the legs and does not commit them to his opponent’s body. 🙏

Peterson You amazing teacher👍

This is a move I use on partners that are my size or smaller. When I try it on larger opponents I find it difficult to get the leverage needed to slide around to take the back. My larger partners will often trap my leg under their body or they may be able to resist being pulled over when I reach around their back.

great

Brian u r a genius t y

Thanks for the post! You mentioned the importance of open-guard, do you have any open-guard episodes?

Old video I know, but how do you deal with that cross block shutting down your offense?

I think "coach Timmy" is the Manchuria candidate. Looked like he was waiting for the signal to attack

Awesome stuff! I hope you don't me sharing this, I do about the same with the 2-on-1 grip, but after I switch grips(where your palm now faces your partner and your pushing their hand into them), I would take my hand that's holding the elbow, let go of the elbow, wrap it around their arm, as if I'm making a reverse kimura. That allows me to pin their elbow and at at the same time, I push their hand out at where my hips are. Then I switch my hips to that same side, I climb my legs up to their armpit as close as possible, and my arm that's holding their hand/wrist, I let go, grab their head, pull to keep their posture broken. From there, I go to the Williams guard by releasing my hand that's wrap around the arm(which is like a overhook at this point) and grab my leg that's on their back and putting the pressure to keep them down, and lock the grips like the way Sean Williams showed. Triangles, omoplatas, far-side armbar, kimuras, chokes are there. I think the Williams guard position is also good as it locks out one arm while the other arm can't hit back while you're able to dish out hammer fists/elbows maybe.

Would you object to me putting the PG logo on my shorts? I watch, drill, refine, modify a lot of stuff I have seen in your channel. You are a coach I respect and wanted to ask permission. I have been doing this back take since high school (circa 2000), I love the way you teach it. I am going to have to jump on that patreon page if I get a couple of wins in the near future here. Thanks for everything!

If you always open your closed guard when someone threatens breaking it: how are you ever gonna get good at closed guard?

@9:53+: Interesting that you go to the back. I'd be planning for the arm bar with a triangle as the back-up option, but maybe that's too obvious.

The video was great. Do you mind doing positions from side control.

At first glance, he looks like he could be Max Holloway’s half brother. Lol

Got smash tonight. But I'll keep at this. Its just frustrating!!!!

If you can show, how to protect from the tow hold

Coach, so if the elbow goes to the ground i would try to hit an omapolata... Is that what you would do?

If the elbow comes down, why not rubber guard?

What if he smashes you with his left elbow or fist while your attempting this?

Coach could you do a video on guillotines with variations high elbow arm in what works best for you etc thanks in advance

Why can't you start off with the armdrag from the get go?

6:31

Mcgregor should have hired you!

I do a arm drag and knees to chess to break someone down.

At around 6:05 talking about Ricksons' hip tilt. He actually doesn't use his hands in the technique. You can watch it here :- kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gdaYq9qp37CXc30.html

Open guard in NoGi = Leg Locks

Open guard = leglocks

Osss

if he drops his elbow... baratoplata maybe?

Tried it against heavier white belts. Zero percent success rate. Cannot control the arm

6:32 looks kinda 🥴

:D

Great tutorial. However, that’s not the guard posture Rickson teaches at all.

Too bad nothing like this works against a 250LBS+ wrestler :(
