How To Do a Single Leg Takedown - Set Up, Entry, Finish - Wrestling for BJJ with Michael Trasso

How to do a single leg takedown start to finish

[johnomara]

As a wrestler I always love it when I find a BJJ guy who teaches proper leg attacks. Great stuff! Covered all the essentials

[mrmaxwell]

Thanks my grandma didnt last two seconds.

Probably the first BJJ video I've seen where a wrestling takedown was taught properly.

[TheMoistBanana]

I just did a leg sweep on eddie bravo after watching this video

[therealdrhankmccoy]

As an ITF Taekwondo/kickboxing guy, I always admired the skill grapplers in BJJ achieve. I've seen Khabib do similar takedowns. Stuff actually works.

[rumchata]

Dude you just taught me how to grab the leg without using muscle which I got none of lol tysm

[egas]

For years now i always think of wrestling as the best self defense, no fancy flashy stuff, just stuff you can use in an actual fight.

[ksagstertohi]

Very slick…super clean moves, impeccable technique with clear explanation. I wish I had an instructor like this.

[dr.fistingstein]

This is how I’m going to teach outside singles from now on. Really well done and conveyed.

[SophisticatedApproach]

I love the quality of your advice and instruction. Keep up the excellent work. 😊👍🏽

[JamesReborn]

That’s superb technique, brother. I commend you. Your transfer of positions is snappy and precise. Can tell if you were going full speed it would be a beautifully quick takedown.

[elgabri]

What a guy! Explains it so easily! Thanks man.

[jakethomas]

Great breakdown. Although you don't need to step back. Your pressure is already going forward. A step forward with the lead leg keeps the pressure and achieves the same objective.
You can also do the same thing with elbow control. You don't need inside control.

Thanks my wrestling sucks, I have some HS and college judo on me but tht only goes so far so my leg attacks are shit

[kingog]

Thx for the tip to just pick the ankle if you have the single leg because i never get the normal single leg takedown

[jimcollectcards]

Great technique! for a bigger guy or if you have bad kneesyou could just snatch that single and perform the same technique without touching your knees

[aje]

The universe is trying to tell you something when you are being lazy scrolling down YouTube shorts and not going to BJJ Just to see your professor ❤️ (professor Omar) in one of the shorts.

[trainerd]

When you first got him to move that right foot forward you could’ve simply done a deashi harai foot sweep and not had to have gone to the ground at all but it was good technique.

[DJ-Q]

Is it better to pull the head while executing the trip or should you pull the knee? I've seen both variations work

[connortishler]

Beautiful. My takedowns are trash. Thank you
