    This video has had a lot of requests, so I finally broke down and made it. Here I show some Rubber Guard fundamentals, set-ups, common mistakes, control features and submission opportunities from basic to advanced. This is a sampling/overview of Rubber Guard, which is a versatile and robust position with uses ranging from sport to mma to self defense.
    There are a ton of great resources out there on this topic, mostly from the 10th Planet System. But this guard system has spread far and wide for decades now, and continually evolves. Hope you like my brief overview here.

    It's nice to see a RGBB show this stuff. Many of the RGBBs I know are living in 1994 and they have not, nor cannot, or whatever (I can't figure it out) accept that though arm locks and triangles, etc. have been around for a thousand years, how those techniques are landed and the way things are taught have EVOLVED! You know the rest, that I'm certain of. Great stuff. Keep it up!

I’ve appreciated the 10p system for around 15 years now and have trained a lot of rubber guard and half guard techniques from it over the years. To me, if it works and is efficient and effective, then it is valuable.

    You can use the double bag as a way to clear the neck if you want to enter “invisible collar” or to clear the neck to a gogoclich scenario… double bags is great to clear and move your mission control foot a little more secure without having them bust out of mission control.

      I love the leglock game and I think that Danaher and his squad have revolutionized and systematized the leg lock game. But there have also been lots of innovative hands on the leg lock game out there. It’s just that Danaher is in the right place and time and is extremely intelligent and articulate with his analysis of it all.

    I've been searching the web and trying to put all the options in one video, but have failed in finding it until now! So thank you a lot, I'll be trying out 3 or 4 of them tomorrow at practice and casually implementing them into my game.

      Basic rubber guard is more effective, notice in the first stage the opponents posture is broken and only has one arm free, while the teacher has two open limbs to strike with and his shoulders are off the mat able to generate power from that position.

I tried this rubber guard and it worked for many submissions ( im a under 1 month white belt) but at the end of the day i felt uncomfortable when i sat .

    • @KnightJiuJitsu
      @KnightJiuJitsu  Před 3 lety

      I would just caution against jumping into any advanced submissions. There are definitely many that require a greater degree of flexibility. Usually though, any injury comes from compromised positions with a lot of pressure on the joints that are already stretched. Make sure you stretch sufficiently and don’t do any extreme positions before warming up well.

I was able to transition to gogoplata, arm bar even zombie sometimes, but the lack of reliance on my flexibility makes me feel like its just an elaborated sideguard. I have started working on my lotus everyday. I hope I can achieve the flexibility I am aiming at without taking years.

      I would say start with research, like you’re doing now by watching videos. There are also plenty of good books to read, which include history and philosophy as well as techniques. You can get a training aid, like a grappling dummy, but ultimately you’ll need a partner and place to train. You can do a lot without a partner, but the resistance a partner provides is crucial to actual training.
