4 Classic Wrestling Moves & How To Use Them In BJJ (#3 Is a Gut-Wrenching Back Take)

Today's video should be a fun one for you. I know it was a fun one for me to think about and create. Basically Brandon and I take 4 different techniques, positions, grips and concepts and show how they're used in Wrestling (Folk, Freestyle & Greco) and then how they could adapted for Brazilian Jiu-jitsu.

I think this is a fun video to get you to think about how all the grappling arts are related and many of the same techniques exist. The BIG difference is that the rules and aims of the sport/martial art will change the way the techniques are used and why.

For instance in this video we show the leg ride from Wrestling which is used to pin someone. Well in BJJ we use a version of the leg ride call Back Mount which we use to control and submit the person.

I need you to make a whole 1hr session on this, I will gladly buy it. I wrestled in high school and college, finally taking BJJ seriously now after years of dipping my toe in.

Dude, you even used time stamps. Content with quality so high the air gets thin!

Chewy!!! I'm a former college wrestler, 6 month white belt... I watched this video yesterday, went to train tonight, and hit the back take from reverse gut on one of the upper belts... Thanks!

That reverse gutwrench, thanks! I used to use the gutwrench/gator rolls/laces constantly haven't even thought of using the reverse gutwrench to a truck gunna give it a go tonight!

[mattf]

I think you used the gut wrench variation to take Rocha's back in one of the sweetest nogi matches I have seen.

[keystonekid]

reverse gut into the truck. I love it! I wish I had thought of it.
