I asked you guys what is a youtuberyou'd like to see me collaborate withand the suggestions were pretty unanimous everyone said chewie so I made it happen.
If somehow you'reunaware of who Chewie is, he's one of thetop just youtubers on the platform and offers great advice and great technique
If you look at some of the guys Chewie's beaten, like Lucas Hocha, you'll see Chewie's not just some youtuber.
I mean Lucas Hocha is very high level and hasbeaten some of the very elite competitors like Clark Gracie, Tim Spriggs and Dylan Danis.
Chewie even won bronze at the 2018 80cc trials onlylosing to former, who's number onechampion: Tim Spriggs.
Considering how good Chewee is, I knewhe'd make for a very close and exciting match for you guys to watch.
Especially my patrons and sponsors who really make cool stuff like this possible and the sponsor today's video is:
Three kids are the dream to help people reach their potential by being more conscious about what they're putting into their bodies.
One of the founders, Ryan, is actually a big fan of the channel and hit this beautiful fake carpool ankle pick after seeing it on the channel.
Proteins nacks you've seen at the grocery storeare often chalky tastes like cardboardor full of artificial ingredients.
So lift up on his leg and enter into the guard, but leave my leg too close to his head and he grabs it to try to get underneath me; likely to enter into x guard, like you see me do here.
I keep heavy and re-adjust to stop him, but run the risk of taking an underhook as I post out like this..
My right arm controls the hips, but I rather have an underhook as Chewie frames to make space, he may be able to swim in one for himself...
I'm standing a bit too upright so I lower my level as I risk Chewie grabbing my legs and wrestling me.
So I switched to the side smash on the right, but wasn't able to get Chewie's right knee in front of my chest; as you see me do here...
I fear Chewie's over hook and give me some trouble so, again, I disengaged to reset and now try to knee slide, but Chewie frames with both his knee shield and his arms; and you can't go through frames... you must go around them!
I grabbed chewie's head to put him on his back, but should we list me forward which forces me to let go and post my hands on the mat.
As you can see I'm being very careful with how much weight I commit toChewie, because not only is chewy very good to jujitsu, but he's also incredibly strong and you can really feel that power in his guard!
He's really good at tying up the upper body and super strong legs for lifting people up... Very similar to me really!
Chewie's trying to sweep me to my right using hiselbow to direct my head there, so I keep my feet close they're acting as posts inthe direction he wants to sweep.
Chewie instead now tries to grab my legs but I hide them and make sure to get my base back as soon as possible!
I'm able to step out of the grip but Chewie is using the opportunity tocome up and likely try to wrestle me!
But because I immediately put my weight on him he's forced to fall back into hisguard and as he does I roll into the front headlock.
Chewie does a great job of using his underhook to force my weight off of him which causes me to transition to north-south; from having ahard time keeping him on his back, and he manages to catch my leg with his leg to put me into his half guard butterfly.
Chewie manages to get an underhook which, I don't supermind, because the front headlock is such a strong part of my game!
And by the way I'm almost done editing my no Gi chokes bgj fanatics instructional which includes my front headlock system.
Chewy starts to elevate me with his butterfly hook and instead of fighting it, I use it to roll forward and snatch up his neck for the front headlock.
Look I want to go to transition...he blocks my arms so I can't overhookand pushes me forward and himself back
This is exactly how to effectively use underhooks for taking the back or using them to get to your knees!
He's actually one of the co-hosts of my podcast: jordan tosh jujitsu so make sure to check that out!
Chewie is winning the grip fight as I often don't worksuper hard to hand fight when wrestling, because I really enjoy having my opponent shoot, or attack in general, and then countering.
It is so hot and humid in Costa Rics and, especially for a canadian like me, so I don't want to get too tired from wrestling..
The way I'm positioned I could possibly butterfly sweep Chewie to my right, but Chewie's keeping all his weight to his right to counter.
Now he pins my arm and starts to try to create an angle but because my hips are controlled, I can follow him and stay centered.
The goal from bottom closed guard is to break posture so I pulled Chewie's head down, but he hits me with the old fist to the chin to make space between us.
Watch how I retain my guard to make sure I keep connection with my feet on the inside, since he's trying to move to the outside of my legs, logically it makes sense to keep my legs on the inside.
I really wanted an underhook but end up settling for an overhook and I don't mind that Chewie has a bit of an underhook on me, because I'm making sure that he can't grab my head by blocking with my right arm.
You can never let someone grab your head should we leave some space for me to get my underhook but as I go for it he pins me down with his head!
Again I blocked chewy from grabbing my head and I might be able to get an underhook if I leave with my elbow but Chewie stays too tight!
This whole half guard exchange is a grip fight and let's let it play out a littlebit and watch what it is that advances position...
It's my underhook and once I have it I need to get his weight off of me to make it useful so bring him to the other side and attempt a butterfly sweep but Chewie disengages by standing up just like I did earlier!
I leave my head too much past my knees which is a recipe for getting guillotined but I posture my head up quickly as Chewie tries to attack my neck.
Again I sit to my guard to conserve energy in the heat and chewy pushes me to my back and look how I pulled my legsto the inside to improve my position!
on the left it'd be hard for Chewie to pass with those grips but on the right he has pretty good passing grips especially for toriano pass!
As well as blocking the space between my knee and elbow that inside position is what he needs to establish side control.
I attempt a triangle and normally I'd like to grab my shin right away to control posture but I can't reach it as Chewie uses his fist in my belly to make it hard to pull him down and break hisposture!
At this point there's nothing I can really do to stop chewie from standing and end up falling on my back
So we're back in half guard and remember, underhooks are king and no gi jujitsu chewie's trying to get one for himself and that's why he's manipulating my left arm to try and create space
It's because chewy's weightis still very much on me watch how I'm patient and wait for his weight to come off to the side before seizing the opportunity that patience paid off and look how I get my underhook deeper and deeper and I'll wait for slow-mo to explain exactlywhat's happeningchewie tries to counter my underhook bybackstepping but I block his hips withmy left leg and now I use my underhookto come up and initially try to knee tapbefore coming around to the body blockwhen I lift him I really prioritizeangling his hips to the side so there'sno way he can post his feet on the matto stop the throw this is my favoriteway of finishing this type of throwbecause it's a gentle landing for yourpartner and you land on the mat withtheir back it's a lot easier puttingyour top hook rather than your bottomhook so I need to bring chewie to theother side so my bottom hook becomes mytop hook chewie is stopping me fromputting in my top hook using his handI'm super dead at this point I'm surechewie is too and like I said it's superhot in costa rica so I just wait untilhe can miss his hands to my arm to putin my top hook and when I do I cross myfeet because I like to make white beltsand blue belts freak out and tell me I'mdoing something wrongchewie gets a beautiful escape byclearing my top arm and then controllingthe wrist to prevent me from regainingupper body control watch how I use myright butterfly hook to keep chewy's legelevated so he can't come up on top ifhe can't put his feet on the mat then hecan't stand up I want to say a big thankyou to chewie for doing this with me Ialways want to give the YouTube choiceto community what they want to see andI'm really glad we can make this happenit was a pleasure rolling as such abeast and if you're still here pleaseleave a comment or fist bump and I'llsee you guys next time
