Any tip on how to stop someone bridging and rolling you over whilst doing this? As soon as I get both hands of the mat the opponent tends to take the opportunity to off balance me
I actually find it easier it finish from the bottom so not a huge issue. You could lean your weight to one side and post your head on the mat to lower the risk though.
Hit this tonight! Thanks man! My head position was wrong at first but my coach worked me through that super easy. Everything else was on point because of this short.
Idk why people dislike this one. It opens up a wide variety of transitions and submissions. But I mean it's also just a front facing version of the rear naked choke. Always enjoy the endless amounts of techniques/sequences you put out there.
Thanks man! It's honestly because they're either not good at them or their training partners who try them aren't good at them. I ignored them for a long time and got good at them. Feels like I need to convince people it's actually a great choke if you're good at them and people don't believe me 😅
@@JordanTeachesJiujitsu yeah I think people worry too much about being rolled or someone exploding out of the position. But mostly I think it's trying to stay too center off the submission attempts. Every one of those mount attack entries needs some offset of weight to keep a pin or transition if they do bump and roll. I think it comes from alot of black belts teaching that aren't themselves specialized in mount control. Or conversely that learned with vale tudo in mind. So without strikes they view it as a less valuable position in a sub only context. Then they pass that along to the students. Anyways I'll look forward to that video.
@@davidcastillo4487 yepp exactly. The same fundamentals and control to all positions. If you don't understand how to positon your weight or control with the legs than you will definitely get rolled to the bottom. But even then you can finish from the bottom and I think it's even eaiser to finish form guard. What people are lacking the most is understanding of choke bites. They make or break any choke and especially the Nogi Ezekiel. I see blackbelts online all the time demonstrating moves with big gaps in theory chokes. Terrible choke bites. If people just took a good bite with the Ezekiel they'd realize how powerful it is.
Also, anyone who doubts this sub check Bmac’s work on this choke. He has lots of details about finishing it and using it ina dilemma between the punch choke and the arm triangle.
Im a whitebelt who mostly practice gi and this is still one of my most consistent subs. Noone rly knows how to defend it at the lower belts. Rly great one and honestly works better for me then the gi ezekiel
So I roll with a guy in my class named Ezekiel. He hit me with this Monday night and esophagus is ruined. I’ve only rolled about 5 times so I will now fight ferociously to prevent that from happening again.
I really appreciate the simple video, Ezekiel in gi and no gi is my favorite submission but sometimes I struggle finishing the no gi, and I think it's because I'm not lifting the head and getting that bicep bite leaving the one artery open. Gonna do more attempts keeping this in mind. Thank you for the content and oss
Also known as a punch choke. My Coach showed me this spend month trying to get it and now is my go to. I'm a white belt and almost pull it on a brown belt. He defended and the chocked me 3 times in a roll but you get the point 😀
I always have trouble finishing it tho I can easily find the choke I just I don’t know if I extend my arms or I press the fist into their neck I’m confused lmao.
Pressure your forearm down. I use my fist because my fingers aw fragile from years of BJJ. But you don't press your fist into the carotid for a nogi Ezekiel. That would be a punch choke. It works. Just a different choke.
@@justingl0324 have your head down on one side ready to post. Position your weight on that same side so you're too heavy to get rolled to the other side. Even if you do get rolled you can finish from guard 🙂
AWWWEE ok, that makes sense, thanks for the quick response, ill try this out tonight in class if we get to free roll! your awesome Jordan!@@JordanTeachesJiujitsu
awesome. i have to play with it. when someone traps their arm under my head from mount, its usually an easy sweep... so my willingness to go for this has to do with whether i can finish the choke from the bottom or stop the sweep (post the leg maybe?)
Are you pressing down on the wind pipe with this one? My understanding is the arteries are at the sides of the neck and it looks like you're fist is on top of the oesophagus
I was doing this in no gi in 2012 as white belt not knowing what an Ezekiel choke was even though I was training in the gi as well. A friend asked me if it was an Ezekiel choke and I said I don't know what that is 😂
There was guy that kept trying this on me at my gym but he wasn’t able to actually tap me with it. I’m just wondering what he might have been doing wrong for it to not be tight enough?
I tried this many times in today's class but I couldn't get the tap. Could you maybe just explain how to finish it properly, please? Overwise great content as always.
Not gonna lie this is top 3 BJJ channels on CZcams but this gotta be the lowest percentage submission out there, even worse is it is incredibly easy to completely reverse the position from bottom mount.
I teach all the tools. They're only as successful as the user is able to implement them. I've only recently starting using them and and have been hitting them consistently on good people 🤷. I actually find it easier to finish from the bottom after being reversed. I think they get a bad rep because low skilled people try to rely on them.
@@kevinjohnson6549 I'm going to hit this choke on good guys in my next rolling commentarys because of the doubters in the comments on tiktok and Instagram too lol. It's really a great choke and doesn't deserve the low percentage label. I didn't think it was great either until I started exploring it. A good bite is essential as well being sneaky about it. If it fails it's also a great way to get them to open them arms up to isolate them.
@@JordanTeachesJiujitsu not "never", but very low percentage. More useful as an attack to create the opportunity for a better attack, most likely will cause you to lose mount if you sell out on it. Probably better in the long run to tell white belts that it doesn't exist
@@pennc81 I think it's higher percentage than people give it credit for. Most people just don't do them right. I've been hitting these regularly after just recently trying them out. I too thought they weren't a great submission but I was wrong.

Who came after the submission of the Alexander Volkov ?
Haha I enjoyed watching that and thinking about the people who told me this submission doesn't work
Which fight was that? Long punch or smother choke?
Volkov graps his forearm instead of bicep from the outside? is it the same?@@JordanTeachesJiujitsu

This is my bread and butter
That choke suck when it’s being done to you I literally tap so quick lol and I usually don’t tap that fats that choke is no joke
Bruh i almost got this on a kid in my class today and stopped because i literally thought “Fuck thats gotta really hurt” 😩
I get roll over 100% of the time when I go for this lol
Jordan I did this and he bridged hard and I tore my rotator cuff
Personally, I just use it as a decoy to get the arm up. Follow that elbow up with your leg into S mount, bingo 🤙
Nice I use that too. You should explore the Nogi Ezekiel more as a finishing option too. It actually works great.
@JordanTeachesJiujitsu 100%, it needs to be a real threat in order to even be an effective decoy
I find it to be tightest if you slide the choking hand under the wrist with tension as opposed to over the head controlling wrist
Dude I've been open hand doing this for months, thank you so much
In the gi, I never get this, genuine struggle. Any tips JP?
Alexander volkov did this to Tai Tuivasa
I keep forgetting to do this in mount 💀
Hello. I like it but is not easy to lose the mount with this movement? Sorry for my english i am spanish. Huges
awesome. i have to play with it. when someone traps their arm under my head from mount, its usually an easy sweep... so my willingness to go for this has to do with whether i can finish the choke from the bottom or stop the sweep (post the leg maybe?)
I am having a hard time finishing this choke. Can't i put pressure on the opponent's wind pipe instead of the artery?
Karate chop!
No gi ezekiel turns into no gezekiel turns into no g'zekiel
Is a fist preferred to the knife hand? I found a knife hand helps me get under their chin if they're defending
Both are good. My fingers are fucked so I go in with the fist to protect them. I find it equally effective.
@JordanTeachesJiujitsu thank you!
If you are the person on bottom, can you do this move to the person on top of you? Is that a legal move from either position?
What it's like with gi?
And now you have their arms as they defend
Are you pressing down on the wind pipe with this one? My understanding is the arteries are at the sides of the neck and it looks like you're fist is on top of the oesophagus
Not the windpipe. The carotid. It's your forearm that pushes down. Your hand just goes deep to position your forearm on the carotid.
👊
would this still be effective if your opponent bridges and reverses the position?
Yes you can still do this from the bottom, very similar set up just bit harder to pull off, just need that tight bite on neck and use fist again
Idk how anyone doubts this choke it’s so easy to get super tight really quick
I was doing this in no gi in 2012 as white belt not knowing what an Ezekiel choke was even though I was training in the gi as well. A friend asked me if it was an Ezekiel choke and I said I don't know what that is 😂
There was guy that kept trying this on me at my gym but he wasn’t able to actually tap me with it. I’m just wondering what he might have been doing wrong for it to not be tight enough?
The crease of the bicep has to have a nice and tight bite and cut off the artery. The fist also has to dig in to the other artery to be effective.
What if they bite your ear off ?
You better pray you are not wrestling with Mike Tyson
I rather go for the CHAD padre de leche 👑(smother choke fyi)

Who's Ezekiel?
Are you saying I shouldn't use the common BJJ vernacular and instead use the vernacular from the martial art you practice?
Been trying to hit this for months with 0 success
Get good at it in the gi first
Isnt this kinda bad though since u cant post
Still gotta position your weight correctly just like an arm triangle
Cool technique, but tap early to this guys, i know people who got nasty throat injury’s from not taping to this
I tried this many times in today's class but I couldn't get the tap. Could you maybe just explain how to finish it properly, please? Overwise great content as always.
Will probably have to film a second part 🙏
@@JordanTeachesJiujitsu thank you, looking forward to it
Great to know…. I probably won’t try this in real time, might get a chunk ( Bite) taken out of me…lol. Although if it’s applied before, Lights Out 😊
