Excellent video from a the greatest mind in BJJ. Goes through all details in great depth to enhance your back attack at all levels. The concepts are broken down into clear and succinct sections, making it very easy to follow.
The organization makes something that is so complex into something that is so simple.
I’m quite new to BJJ but know the back is one of the most proven methods of finishing a MMA fight. Dr.Danaher offers his system in a way that it is easy to follow for a beginner like me. What I liked the most is his “flow chart” approach to attacking the back. I’ve learnt small but game changing details!
between the Gordon Ryan and Danaher back attack systems this one is definitely the winner. Back game massively improved after this
This is the only series on back attacks anyone should pay money for.
Really nice and helpfull i love it
I would give this video my highest recommendations to any of my training partners. After just watching the first ~2hrs of the instructional with no drilling whatsoever my back attack submission rate and control increased 10 fold.
A mind blow
This has become an essential part of my game. Great insights and detail. I found it a long and repetitive, but Really good. Danaher is both a big picture guy and hyper detailed. He could be more to the point, but I enjoyed his instructional a lot. Great explanation on WHY as much as how.
The Solo Drills series got me hooked on Coach Danaher’s teaching, and this was no exception. All of the descriptions are clear and concise and he explains the ‘why’ behind everything. I feel like I understand the back position and how to finish thoroughly now. And have all sorts of techniques to try and practice as soon as I get back to the mats.
Convenient set up/quick access Amazing description of tech Great demonstration Love the progression of teaching Something about Danaher is spiritual I want him in the army of the lord
In depth instruction and a multitude of concepts covered definitely worth the cost
Greatly increased my effectiveness from the back. John does such an outstanding job explaining a complex system. He breaks down what essential positions lead to subs and what positions lead to failure. I was able to use some of these techniques last night to sub a 3 stripe purple which was a first for me
John's instruction brought a lot of clarity to my back attack game. I feel like I am much more methodical in my approach and I better understand a lot of the reasons "why". I highly recommend this content.
These techniques have helped improve my game with less than a month of training in bjj. Can’t wait to get pin escapes next!
I bought this video series because I felt like every time I would get to the back I could never break through the hands to get a choke. They would eventually get out and I had wasted a bunch of energy just grip fighting or having them on top of me. The straight jacket system has really helped me be more effective from the back. Prof. Danaher's attention to detail, repetition, and conceptual explanations really work for how I prefer to learn.
Amazing detail, money well invested
John's Back Attack DVD is extensive and detailed, which is why it's so impactful on your game. Having a group of heuristics to follow for everything from the entry, to the grip fighting, and when to move to the strangle put major percentage points on my rear mount game as well as defenses. Highly highly recommend, but make sure you have a notebook handy!
I got Danahers videos and this is a great way to study outside of classes. Excellent
Amazing details and information! Highly recommend!
I’m a black belt, and in the first hour alone I learned enough to justify my purchase. I love the rules and the approach John applies to the positions.
Havent had a chance to crack right into this, have only had it on in the background when cooking or catching a few minutes - maybe watched around 2 hours in total, yet I have hit 3 clean RNC subs using the the fundementals picked up from John's methods. Can't wait to really dissect the information as I can tell this is going to change my whole game for the good.
The detail is beyond the next lvl
These systems in combination develop a clear foundation for attacking in a circle nothing better
