As former wrestler who's been struggling to hit his takedowns this helped so much as far as grip set ups and preventing the guillotine. Thanks chewy

same guillotine and gi grips are things to get used to from the take down perspective

Thanks Chewjitsu. I tried these techniques out at a tournament this weekend without having had the chance to practice them live, which was risky. Because you taught the moves so well, I was able to score two take downs, that ultimately led me to submitting my opponent. Many thanks for this great video and your help.

Wow, Chewy! I learned a lot in the last 11 minutes. Awesome video! I can see how important your grips are. You are an excellent teacher. Thanks for taking the time to post this. That was nice of you to give a shout out to your friend and his gym. Thanks again!

this was amazing and made me realise how much i need to learn when it comes to grips for takedowns... i know nothing, lol

I watched this video as a white belt years ago. Now as a purple belt getting ready for masters worlds, this is very helpful setting up my wrestling takedowns for the gi.

Wow, that analogy on going for the arm bar in guard without grips is priceless! Thank you!

I'm a 2nd degree black belt in bjj and found this extremely informative 👌. More info than I deserve🤙

My instructor just went over something similar and it's really been working for me, and I have been trying to expand on it. This helps a lot like, thanks Chewy!

One of your best videos ever. Thanks!

i am a white belt advanced from kingdom of bahrain 🇧🇭 🇧🇷 amd trust me guys i have been personally trying these takedown techniques since it's been a week and i am finally successfull and these techniques are best . thanks osss🤙

Does anyone know the best thing to do if someone lunges at you from lets say across a table and lets say it is difficult to do a regular takedown because there is a table between the two of you. Ok now keeping in mind that if you reach your hand out, they could grab your hand and break your hand or bite it or something. So if you were at a table and someone lunged at you with their hand and head coming forward, what it a good self defense to do beside reaching your hand out and running the risk of one of your hands getting bitten or something.

Great strategy! Definitely gonna apply this to my game. Thanks Chewy!

I like all the fans on the techniques thank you very much I’m gonna start implementing them into my game.

This was really helpful. Good guy Chewy.

Takedowns take commitment. I worked in reverse and went from BJJ to wrestling, and I struggled with this for a while. But when you learn to have confidence in your shot and you commit to getting that other person to the mat, you'll start hitting them. You can have the best technical armbar in the world, but if you don't have the belief that you can submit someone with it, you probably never will. And I speak from experience: my jaunt into wrestling transformed my Jits game from a mostly-guard player to a top control nightmare...well, maybe not a nightmare, but I'm difficult to sweep at least :)

I started treating being sprawled on/guillotined as just another position to work from. They are somewhat bad positions, but there are still lots of things you can do to reverse, and the more you end up in them the better you get at reversing them. I'm still not great at it, but thinking of it like that helped me a lot in terms of just going for it. And importantly I've stopped habitually pulling guard :P

4:14 good multipath entry

This need a dvd

Hi Chewie, for the single leg shot, does it matter if you make him step by dragging the collar or the sleeve, depending on his stance?

I always end up in a stalemate od just we both get good grips and never being able to get past the arms well enough to get the takedown and i hate pulling gaurd it puts me in the rougher position being a bigger guy think you could do some demonstrations on getting past the arms when both have such good grips?

Cool thanks

4:19 good!

Excellent. Now if you can show follow up submissions to your takedowns.

Hey Chewy! I could use some help. I'm a white belt traing 3-4 days a week. I pick up techniques fairly quick though I do I have one gripe with my peers. We start on our knees just because it's crowded almost every class. It seems that everyone starts on their bum but most take downs I'm taught are from standing. I usually get paired with dudes that would have 40-60 pounds me. It seems like all I do is get crushed or lifted. I want to compete but it feels like I'm not getting good rolling exp. I'm 220 pounds, 26 and while I've got a higher tolerance for pain and love to train hard I'm not sure if I'm getting effective training for rolling. Thanks in advance.

Repetition is everything. The more reps you do, the more the techniques will become muscle memory, and the more they'll just feel natural and you won't have to think about them

@tye3ow

muscle memory is basically the answer. I can just do techniques very easily, but it takes me a few seconds to actually think about the motions if I'm going to explain to someone how to do it. it just becomes part of how your body works, and then "how do I do this technique" changes into "what changes can I make to do this technique more effectively?" once you get some good muscle memory, you'll start being able to predict if a technique is goint to be effective how you catch it, which will save your muscles over time, making you more efficient. tl;dr, practice, practice, practice.

Orly spi As the others have said, repetition. But there's another important thing that you can do: teach. I'm only a four stripe white belt with wrestling experience, but I train with a college club where we regularly have brand new people trying Jits out for the first time. Naturally I run over very basic things with them such as mount escapes, the barebones guard passes, some standup wrestling, etc. Often I find myself catching facets of technique that I had not considered at all beforehand, and sometimes these brand new grapplers make me think outside of the box. Teaching truly is a learning experience unto itself, especially with something as dynamic as BJJ. My goal is to one day teach Jits as a black belt :)

would be better if you show the finish of the takedowns too ;D

Im a white belt and I know the inside leg trip 😂 . Amazing how much the GI takes away from the basic knowledge you should already know . In NO GI ( real ) you have to know wrestling . No collars to grab.
