Escaping Back Control Against Someone Better Than You

When building skills in the standing position, the first place every practitioner should start is the body lock takedown. Of the many variations of the body lock, the king of all of them is the body lock takedown with double underhooks in BJJ, wrestling, MMA, and grappling in general. Double underhooks are by far the most dominant grips you can achieve in the standing position because they allow you to build a strong connection in the clinch and create maximum leverage with the hips while exposing an opening to the back. If one is able to secure double underhooks, the foundation of their attacks should revolve around locking the hands and off-balancing with the hips. In this video, we discuss the importance of double underhooks in the standing position, how to leverage the grips once achieving the body lock, and a system of attacks based on the defending player’s reactions in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, grappling, and MMA. We're building this channel to share high-level insights on Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, No-Gi grappling, wrestling, Judo, and MMA training.
