Let’s explore some of the amazing techniques you will find in this series. Here we go!
#1: Knee Bar Fundamentals
In Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, one of the most feared submissions is the knee bar. In many respects, the knee bar in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is just like an arm lock. The knee bar relies on a hyper extension of the joint in order to cause your opponent to tap (or injure in a real life street fight scenario). Let us explore some knee bar fundamentals with Gabriel Arges. Watch the video below and then we will break down the technique. Check it out now!
Sometimes you will be in a situation in half guard where your opponent is putting tons of pressure on your guard. That first thing you want to do is push away from your opponent every time he puts weight on your legs. In a case where your training partner pulls your leg out you need to fight to get it back, or you can force with your hands and push to reset. From here use a pull and push movement to get your opponent’s momentum going. Use his reaction to pressure back into you to grab his far leg. Your free hand should dive under your training partner’s leg, and you want the thumb of your hand in back of his knee.
As you go for the under hook on the leg you want to maintain the collar grip. From here reach and pull your arm all the way through. You can switch your grips to create more leverage. Use 4 fingers inside your training partner’s gi, and establish a deep cross collar grip. This now gives you the power to push your opponent’s head away. Take your leg out and hip escape up onto your side. Now, place your other foot on your training partner’s hip so you can push him. As soon as you start to push you want to do a quick grip switch. Use your other hand to post up and switch your head position so that your opponent’s toes are resting directly on the back of your head. This will allow you to get your hips up as you rotate your body into the knee bar submission.
#2: The Kneebarges
This is a very high level technique from Gabriel Argies. The knee barge depends on good timing from the 50 50 position. Gabriel has done this technique so many times that he knows exactly when to go for the knee bar. By pretending to go for the sweep you use your opponent’s momentum to sweep back, giving an opportunity to hit the knee bar. Pay attention to the way Gabriel finishes with his feet. It is important to keep your feet tight so that there is nowhere for your opponent to go.
5 Time World Champion Bernardo says this about Gabriel, “Gabriel is one of the toughest guys of the new generation and it is a huge pleasure for me! He is only 24 years old and he is already a two time Black Belt World Champion.” If you are looking to spice up your leg lock life then be sure to check out Gabriel Arges’ “The Knee Barges Leg Attack System” instructional series that is available exclusively on BJJFanatics.com!
