[dontb01]

One of my Favorite Instructors Thank You !!!!!

[OneBigBAMF]

cant he just roll into you until his on his knees, get up and stack you?

[bjjweekly]

@OneBigBAMF No, he can't - try it with a training partner and you'll discover why.

[emaun423]

[flowjitsu1337]

@brfelo

They also commonly spar with one person practicing jitz and the other with boxing gloves, they also train a way larger amount of standup, wristlocks, escapes and throws than BJJ schools, they also have pretty unique grading requirements and also have a unique philosophy on sparring, GJJ is just different, even if you would like to generalize it

[lsloewen2]

@brfelo

Well I have been training 50 years and am related to a Gracie, statements like that don't mean anything here. The moves are similar but the objectives, goals, training style and syllabus are different at the GJJA than BJJ schools. Most BJJ schools don't have a strong self-defense emphasis, if they have one at all

[rikki939]

I would assume one escape would be to roll into the guy on top, as the leg goes over your head .. and force the elbow to the ground.. but will need to check it out.. beautiful technique, thanks for the video

[130kali]

What pompous jackass dare to question a reputable jiujitsu blackbelt?

[MMASulu]

3:20 It would be more effective to have the right leg over left but if he is tapping out a street fighter, It doesn't matter

[lsloewen2]

@rm3103

Dude, that's Ryron Gracie, he KNOWS better than you, unless you have evidence otherwise. Gracie Jiu Jitsu is its own thing, they train much different than Sport Brazilian Jiu Jitsu

[BrFelo]

@lsloewen2 You don't know shit about BJJ. Gracie Jiu-Jitsu is BJJ. The same jiu-jitsu that gracie teach is the same jiu-jistu that other BJJ fighters teach. I been training for 10 years and a trained with gracies.

[RM3103]

Gracie Jiu jitsu my ass.... brazilian jiu jitsu...and sir just for the record.... DO NOT CROSS your legs when you do  your arm bar.....

[ORIGINBJJ]

@RM3103 the reason he crosses his feet is because his opponent's elbow is raised. Anytime their arm is raised you can control their upper body with your feet crossed under the triceps area. Key is that once you break the grip then uncross your feet.

[RM3103]

@ORIGINBJJ

PLEASE I`VE BEEN DOING BJJ LONG B4 YOU START IT SO PLEASE DONT TELL ME WHAT IS  RIGHT OR WRONG. ON THE GAME THAT I MASTERED FOR YEARS. HE IS WRONG AND THATS IT. GRACIE ONLY HAVE NAME HERE IN THE USA BC IN BRAZIL.... I FEEL SORRY FOR THEN. TO WEAK.

[rikki939]

@RM3103

Crossing the feet prevents the oponent rolling out of the armbar ... There is no right or wrong Jiu jitsu.. THAT IS THE BEAUTY OF IT ... some things work for different people and some dont ... It doesnt really matter how long you have been training.. everyone is free to give their own opinion, there is always an escape

[BrFelo]

@RM3103 And by the way, CROSS your legs and that way. It will make impossible to escape.

[RM3103]

@BrFelo SURE CROSS UR LEGS STUPID FUCK, AND FUCK GRACIE JIUJITSU, AND IF YALL WANNA BE DOWN WITH GRACIE JIUJITSU FUCK YOU TOO, AND HAVE A GOOD DAY.

[BrFelo]

@RM3103 White belt?

[jagmd]

@RM3103 Here's the deal. If you have the far arm included like the video, it makes the position stronger and harder to escape with the legs crossed. If the far arm is under your legs, you should absolutely not cross your legs. Not surprisingly, in this case the 5th degree black belt was right, and you are wrong. Have a nice day.

[jagmd]

@jagmd Sorry, that was @ BrFelo.

[IamVeryFrozen]

@RM3103 Well Ryron himself said you should not cross your legs for an armbar on the gracie combatives videos, so if he does cross his legs here there is a reason for it.

[richandgaz]

great bite sized moves thanks

Just need to convince my brother to let me practice on him now lol

[kanguesso]

@richandgaz Don't break his arm. lol

[jaeles1776]

Thanks for the technique! I was able to use it first try when rolling, worked great! The little grip-break trick worked perfectly too.

[Radian1978]

Two thumbs up! Very very nice vid, looking forward to more.

[GHRepresent]
