Great example, we often drill “duck walks” in wrestling. Which is just continuing that motion with the other leg, and repeat until you’re smoothly gliding with power and direction. Then incorporate your hands while shooting also

[ThaIceman]

I definitely struggle with these, hopefully this makes a major difference & gets my TD game effective.

Couldn’t agree more! Can’t blast a double if your kneecap shatters

[nicholasneyhart]

If you have knee instability due to injury use it as the back leg for power and the stable leg to steer the direction of the shot.

I remember watching a vid with Andrew Wiltse who has a pretty good penetration step. He mentioned that if your knee touched the mat you FK up, he said you want you back leg to come 'rushing up' to plant its foot down just before the front knee lads. This helped me allot.

Wow! Absolute Eureka moment! Hopefully I'll stop taking the skin off my back knee now. Thanks for posting.

[kevinomahoney]

I watched this twenty times. Thank you.

I learned wrestling by sparring the guys on the wrestling team and basically discovered bjj as the smaller guy in the guard position most of the time. So my double leg is like this because I was never taught to put my knee on the ground

[ashtoncomer]

I used to try to double let the mat instead of my opponent too 😂👍🏼

[kingzokutherealest]

Another tip: instead of dropping to your knee and sending all your speed and momentum into the floor it should be straightforward and your knee will drop automatically

[TJ-rbmi]

Always wondered why people did this thanks

[fred]

No, dont stay upright the whole time. You can be substantially more upright for bjj but totally upright and youre losing power. This comes into another big issue this guy did. When your knee lands you should be exploding your hips forward like in a deadlift or rdl when youre at the top of the lift. Youre hinging. This brings so much power. You cant do that if youre already upright and he kept his hips back when shooting which is a mistake. Shooting should just be used to cover distance but also knock your opponent off balance.

Then you’re telegraphing it, change levels like crazy

I’m 6ft6 218 lbs and something about dropping to my knee just doesn’t feel right to me, I like how you show the alternative penetration step

[yunghage]

bro mat burn hit so hard, my legs and feet have been bleeding for a week and still have scars, how do i prevent this shit? it only happens to me, not for the other students

[seangentry]

We called it "kerplunk" in wrestling so naturally I brought it to jitz. NO KERPLUNKING!

[xjoshsaucex]

This is how I shoot. But every jiu-jitsu practitioner tells me to do it the first way he was talking bout how not to do it

[marlonjormungand]

I can do that but with being active and faints im completely exhausted in like 20 seconds 😢

[SwordTune]

If your knee hurts, you're not low enough.

[jnwoodard]

Yep, I’m a dumb jiu jitsu guy that does this. Always hurting my knee, always killing my shot.
