Today’s question comes from John, who says he’s having trouble doing the traditional Wrestling shot when he’s training at his BJJ gym.

He says what happens when he attempts a shot is that he essentially cannot get through the full range of motion without slamming his knee on the mats.

Obviously, this is a super painful thing, but he wants to get better at Wrestling, and he’s wondering if I’ve got any ideas on how to develop some more flexibility in order to start shooting takedowns in BJJ without so much pain.

With that being said, in this video I’ll answer John’s questions by giving you guys 2 stretches that will hopefully help you get a little more range of motion when shooting in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. These stretches have helped improve my range of motion with lifting and training so I hope they work for you.

In this video, I answer a question from Kim, who was asking advice about how to get back to BJJ training after having an ACL reconstruction surgery in her knee.

The ACL (Anterior Cruciate Ligament) is a ligament responsible for helping stabilize your shin bone relative to your knee and in many cases requires surgical repair if injured badly enough.

ACL Reconstruction can vary in duration and has. fairly lengthy rehab and recovery time. If you have had ACL surgery this video will be helpful, and if you’ve injured your knee and are wanting to safely get back to training BJJ, then this video has some important information to help your return to the mats.

I got a question about the Rubber Guard and specifically if there is any danger to the knees when hugging the knee as well as holding at the ankle to secure the position.

I reached out to 10th Planet Jiu-Jitsu Black Belt Brandon Mccaghren to break down the position, any safety concerns when utilizing the Rubber Guard, how to apply the technique properly, is there ever a reason to grab the ankle without holding the knee, the importance of following the opponent, the two styles of rubber guard, and much more.

In this video I answer a Youtube question about a knee injury that has limited the amount of bend in the knee. I discuss any whether there are some dangers in training without full knee motion.

I also talk about a few positions to avoid as well as position to use if you have limited knee bending and a really effective technique that can help improve knee bending (aka knee flexion).
