It took me 10,000+ reps to learn this Takedown Concept

- Geno Morelli shows a takedown concept from wrestling covering the importance of hip positioning on takedown entries. This takedown is great for nogi jiu jitsu because people tend to hold higher stances.
For high leg attacks where you’re attacking the hips you want to avoid dropping your butt to your heel if possible. This applies to shots like double legs and high crotches. Sometimes though, it is required to drop your butt to get underneath your opponent. If you have to drop your butt on an attack where you’re attacking the hips, try and immediately get your hips back in so that you can pop back up to your feet for an easier finish.
I’m filming a new instructional tomorrow on STANDING WRESTLING FUNDAMENTALS that will be covering all of the crucial concepts that are foundational to learning wrestling and avoiding developing bad habits. If you want me to message you when it drops, comment FOUNDATION below.

It is FAR more comprehensive than my Instagram. It’s 2.5hrs so I have way more time to actually teach you the core concepts and details that make the difference 🤓

What's crazy is that l've never seen this concept 'taught' in a practice. I picked it up from watching people live and through feeling the difference.
One drill we did at PSU called the 'chase the leg' drill really engrained this into me without even thinking about it.
If you're gyms wrestling instruction does not cover concepts like these or wrestling at all, you need to consider picking up my Collar Tie Mastery course. The l1nk is in my b10. Or visit app.athletesocean.com

Has your patellar tendon ever given you pain from dropping down onto it?
I’m getting it for the first time and am trying to figure out how to get back on the mats.
I have been training jiujitsu daito ryu for a few years, and I remember that a partner did this same movement, my teacher took us to the park in front of where we trained and asked him to repeat the movement, to summarize, his knee hurt for a couple of weeks, my The point is, for those who are starting out, remember that there are movements that can only be performed on a tatami, if you do it on grass or concrete you will hurt yourself. Great video.
Sambo day 1 .
good sugarfoot man
He just keeps tweaking and perfecting his grappling. Becoming even more formidable. I love this stuff.
Very interesting! Allows you to keep running your opponent down and instead of stopping you dead in your tracks. Will have to drill this
This is legit the first thing we learn in wrestling practice freshman year. How to to properly shoot and continue momentum.
Oftentimes this is not good technique your opponent ends up using your momentum against you. I was taught this and did it in a freestyle wrestling match during a tournament got my momentum used against me ended up getting duplexes, slammed on my shoulder. I'm 31 that's when I was 19 and it's never been the same since. Good advice but only specific circumstances in wrestling
Running your opponent down is such a waste of energy and time it’s even taught now in wrestling to rather cut an angle then keep running them down
As an MMA guy who has a lot of martial arts to study this is a great tool thank you
Yessir 🫡
As a guy who watches allot of MMA, a guy who tried to use it in the octagon got brutally knocked out, pretty sure you can find the video.
@@1000REMBOYwhich fight are you talking about exactly? Not Petroski from this Saturday I hope😂
.
@@1000REMBOY I think in the video you're referring to, buddy shot from way too much space. That's why he never got on the leg and got chinned
my knees will forever thank you!
🫡🤙
Slide cancel tutorial.
Why doesn’t anyone in bjj really go more into this being a lesson not just a warmup. I had to save this video in my phone.
Thanks a lot bro 🤙🏼

I agree there’s a huge “change levels” portion but not a keep your hips high and leg swing detail.
Because you will practice your shot for 6 months, cut weight, sign up for a tournament, show up, get hype, then your opponent will just pull guard anyway 😂😂😂
@@Dwillztxhahahahhahah
@@Genomorellimma grind over passion 😢
I've avoided single legs and doubles bendy of my knee issue. But this makes so much sense and can save them a lot of stress. I'm going to try this out. Thank you!
Let’s goooo! Glad it helped brotha 🤙 have you tried it yet?

Damn, beautiful. That makes so much sense, I wonder why I wasn’t getting that explosive burst at the end cuz I’ve been dragging my butt. Brilliant
I always love the part after - LETS TAKE A CLOSER LOOK
When wrestling and doing the shot stretch I would always go to my heel and I always felt so slow on them no matter how much effort I put in. This is a cool tip!
Let's go!! Give it a shot and lmk if it helped 👍
Hey Geno, I was in your bracket at the 2010 King of the Mountain tournament (152) and 2011 AAA State tournament (also 152). Pretty neat to come across your content on my discover page. Keep killing it out there.
Oh let’s goooo ✊ thanks for the note, hope everything is good 🫡
I saw a same comment, but I want to say again.
This contents is so surprising and would be like innovative thing in mma context.
Thanks for sharing.
I needed this in high-school, I only got this in college after I already have my style dedicated to throws and tieups.
-Dude, just. Thank u so muco, i've struggling with this since the beginning.
Absolutely golden bro🙏👍💪💯❤️🇹🇹🫡
Gotta love the details from the real training, endless hours towards another insight
Dude I've been looking for this video
What a simple concept. But never saw/realised
Yessir!
Really like that it's better on the knees too. Lower chance of injury plus better mechanics? Nice!
Solid advice
Thank you! glad it helped. Subscribe here and on Instagram for more 👍
Relevant details!!
Great explanation!!
This is what I've struggled with wrestling! When your hips are down, so is your momentum and power! Thank you for this! This means a lot and now ill be more confident competiting. While a challenge for wreslters, BJJ nerds wont see it coming
Wow great tips unreal. This is exactly why my shots get stopped dead on their tracks sometimes
Let's gooo! have you tried it yet? what do you think?
If your in a tie up , going to the knee can allow you to swing your other leg around to cut an angle also , the shot your doing is to cover a large distance, which is most idea in most circumstances
Excellent!!
I really needed this, thank you 🤲🏼
Excellent detail. Super useful.
Very interesting. There is certainly a risk reward aspect to dropping your hips lower on a shot. And it takes skill to maintain balance, maintain power, and get low enough depending on where your hips go. Talent
This is huge, thanks!
Love it!
Just hit the subscribe button seen a couple vids and love following you on this journey. Keep up the good stuff.
Lets gooo!! Appreciate the support ✊
Thank you for this! My knee doesn’t bend toward my butt so the insight will help my shot! Thank you!!
Glad it is helpful 🙏
That’s crazy that nobody pointed that out sooner, maybe you won a lot and I coached kids that lost a lot but that is what I fix the second most when teaching how to shoot.
Great point
🙏✊
Solid video
I've had this momentum problem but didn't understand it at all. Thanks!
Bro this concept was a total game changer for me hit like 3 outside step high Cs in sparring today on (one on a decently athletic blue belt)
I can't believe I've see this gym so many times that I recognized it instantly.
The way I was taught, there was a certain distance that you kept from your leg and your hip, and it was 90° or more usually, so I did this unintentionally by either stepping back or stepping forward
When performing my shots I would lose my momentum once my knee crashed into the mat. This concept in Gold!
Thank you 😅
You're welcome!
Thanks for the tip
Anytime!
You are correct.
🤙
Epiphany!! Thank you!!! #respect
Good to know!

Saves your knees as well! So many kids wreck their knees in wrestling thinking the shot is jumping on your knees. Let’s bring back the Penetration step terminology 😂
Thank you so much. I was wondering if there was a better way to do it.
Interesting concept. Now I know why Gable Stevenson Knee Pull/snatch singles so effective.
Thank you. I’ve always avoided shooting because I do this and hurt my knees.
I went to two different schools and one taught me the one that you do and the other one taught me the other shot that you dont like and im going to different school so im going to have too re learn it again 😂
Great, thank you
You are welcome!
Maybe I'm biased, but I grew up wrestling in Texas. This reminds me of the great coaching I got started with back in 7th grade (my lawd, that was before most of yall here were even born haha).
We were told to not wear knee pads back in school specifically because coach said knee dragging was lazy, bad form that "wouldn't take down anyone worth taking down". Basically we were taught that by proxy to never let our forward knee dig into the mat and as you said, stop the momentum.
thx bro subbed
Ty
You're Welcome!
Thank you !!!

In hs wrestling, we did this most days during warm-ups. Up n back like 40x. Muscle memory is developed.
My teacher (old Japanese guy) always said “Only perfect practice makes perfect!” 😅
This exact concept is actually how people learn to get air out of ramps/keep speed on a skateboard when flying out of bowls. If you bend your lead leg as you approach a ramp, your momentum gets absorbed into the ramp rather than redirected up the ramp. A stable front leg to keep your body weight moving in the right direction is so important in pumping/air on a skateboard
My knees popped off while watching
I tried this when fighting on the street, now I have a new kneecap
Smart
I was blind but now I can see
I saw like a football player casually doing this in random youtube shorts
The dirt he was running on became smoke
interesting. I've been trying to get low so there's less impact on the knee and using a small angle in the process. I'll try this way
Strong men of strong form are so righteous
90 degrees is the magic # I’m movement principles
I practice shots on carpet at home. Yeah, that taught me to make it easier to swing the trail leg really early on.
I… didn’t even realize that’s what I was doing. That’s like… one of the first things I learned but I’m a visual learner and disnt even think of the concept past “knee between the feet then other leg drives” lol
Also your hips and shoulders are tilted over your little toe which is great hip alignment to squat down.
Good info. I use to have a nasty low single/ankle pick so I am glad you didn't just trash the low shot movement.
low shots are great 👍
@@Genomorellimma I was able to get away with a few little shots when I was doing BJJ. I was able to avoid getting tangled up and people didn't think a big guy can move that fast.
That is garanteed to cause damage to the meniscus joint
Nice😊
🙏✊
Light bulb moment! Thank you for the great tip

The high hips I feel like my knee slams the may too hard. Wrestling coaching 15 years and tore my right meniscus 11 years ago. I agree with u but I prefer the more bent leg to lower knee impact.
🔥🔥🔥
Wow😮
I’ve taken 10,000 plus just like this dude save your knees kids. But wrestling is awesome and will make you a better person
True. In wrestling, you're practically shooting UNDER the mat.
10s of thousands is crazy
That gym looks mean as bro
That would be so painful to just get kneed in the face as you try that, keep up the work
Wow. This move made quit standup game in jiu jitsu. I’ve been doing it wrong the whole time and no one at my gym corrected
Most people miss this concept and most gyms have bad wrestling instruction. Follow me on Instagram and subscribe here if you want to get better at wrestling 🤝
Theres plenty of judo and wrestling stand up that doesn’t involve a shot. You just quit because you didn’t like one move?
I needed this! I throw my back out doing this on a partner and I can see why
PT shirt ftw Rah
Korean forward dash?
We can call it that
I love seeing the human body move! Art 🎨
Oh I’ve definitely been doing this wrong lmao
fixing something youve done wrong 30000 times is an achievement in and of itself. that muscle memory is hard to counteract
And then Judo people Sasai you. :3
But on the real great work. Cool video.
literally 1st year tot wrestling
This is such a great detail. Good stuff
Glad it was helpful ✊
Burroughs will go a lot lower than 90 degrees regularly. I see what you're saying for jiu jitsu, but I think it has more to do with direction of force than the bend of the knee.
Yeah it really depends on a lot of factors, including which specific technique you’re hitting. Oftentimes, in wrestling, it’s necessary drop your butt farther
New content on Ocean’s Athletes when?
There is a technique to deal with when you touch your heal to your butt, basically you slide your back leg shin on the mat instead of trying to swing it forward. It's called the European single leg cast takedown.
Boot Scoot entry
You also wanna push with you trail leg for more power but it doesn't look like you're doing that. I'm not that good so im probably back seating here but that's what I know and it helps me a lot
