Everything I hoped it would be. All the no gi chokes you need shown from multiple positions and with lots of set ups and ways to defend each choke. Lots of troubleshooting and key details. Plus there is 40ish minutes of narrated rolls and a q&a at the end. Very informative.
If you're a fan of anything lachlan, you'll love this one. Great breakdown of chokes and why and how they work. No BS, all just stuff that works and is effective.
very detailed and well explained instructional for a great price
the best details about finishing. all the other instructonals should copy the matrix like effects he has . for the guillotines (it is an example) great value. check it out
Super comp
Lachlan is a very good teacher and price to value ratio is incredible with this one!
Everything Lachlan teaches is good. Very organized and systematic but not overwhelming
Great movie with lots of details
Great stuff
Concise explanations with excellent attention to detail. Highly recommended!
All of the techniques are broken down into minute detail, well described, and filmed in multiple angles. Watching this instructional and implementing Lachlan’s set ups turned these techniques from fairly average to high percentage for me. I have been having a lot of fun strangling my training partners!
The instructions are well organized and very detailed. Amazing deal for the price. As thorough as a Danaher video
Really useful finishing details for chokes that consistently work!
Buenas explicaciones, calidad y variedad
Detailed and easy to follow
very good to start working with, but even when experienced with chokes theres new entries/details/concepts to learn from this
So much great content. Lachlans DVD's have the best value of any instructor on Bjj Fanatics.
Got a NS choke in my first match, first tournament thanks to Lachlan!!!
Many issumes have been resolved.
Lachlan is one of the best teachers in the game. Great informations and very usable.
Awesome technique and systems
You seriously cannot go wrong with a Lachlan Giles video!
I really enjoy learning from Lachlan. The way he breaks it down, how easy it is to digest, and the way it’s organized. For me, there were so many details in just the guillotines that made this instructional worth it. I also got my first anaconda the very next day after watching this instructional, and have pulled off everything he shows in it since.
There is a lot of very clear, detailed instruction. This the first two segments are helping my success in no Gi! I am looking forward to training with this as a resource
All the options and a system that works with how I roll. Thanks Lachlan.
Amazing product with a lot of useful techniques.
This is a great instructional. I am a big fan of darces, guillotines & anacondas and this instructional covers them in great depth. Also I've learned some new moves - like the japanese necktie - and starting having some success with it. I think this is a very good investment if you want to improve your chokes.
I use it as a reference book when I train at home
So much information in this instructional! Gonna be using this as a reference for many years to come especially when I learn new attacks. Looking forward to improving my guillotines.
10/10 best instructional simple and effective and explanatory is on point
Awesome instructional
Highly recommend, this instructional is great, especially for smaller grapplers who want to focus on chokes over joint locks for their effectiveness in finishing.
Lachlan has such a talent for describing details at a fundamental level. Every instructional he makes is gold. In High Percentage Chokes, not only does he teach you the name's sake, but he teaches you a system- the entries, objectives, and transitions. You'll get a lot out of this one.
One of the best value for money here. Lachlan set the bar for the instructionals
Excellent instructional.
Highly detailed instructional
Typical of Lachlan Giles, a great resource for your grappling.
Great series. Very detail rich with plenty of options for this white belt!
Wanting to improve my chokes as I found the majority of my submissions were joint locks of some regard. Definitely have a ton of options after going through this. Excited to apply what I'm learning and to keep referring back to this to improve.
Amazing. the whole video i watched 5 times and every time i watch i am still picking up details.
Great chokes from one of the goats! Sick Video
great details on no gi chokes!
I throughly enjoyed this, and have been applying these during my rolls and having a better success rate with my subs rather than just “holding” my opponent. From setting up the choke and applying with the fine details I over looked
Lachlan bringing the goods as usual!
Lachlan is a great instructor. He is also great on his submeta.io, He explains the concept clearly, in small chunks, and elaborates the technic in its alternative options. I would recommend it as well as his half guard anthology.
Lachlan has a lot of really great details in finishing individual submissions and also linking them together and giving his meta behind setting different attacks up
Anything from Lachlan is pure gold, so easy to understand his material. Great mix of concepts and techniques.
Great teacher
lots of great stuff. Very good details.
Systematic approach to the techniques. He is not only teaching the submission as a single technique, but gives you a context, entries to the position, control, action-reaction solutions, troubleshooting. Cover the chokes from different position as guard, top half guard, north south, inverted north south and standing. Give some tips how to adapt the move to your body type. I am glad I bought it. Lachlan is one of the best instructors on the site.
